Set list looks good (https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-stranglers/2024/clyde-auditorium-glasgow-scotland-33aaa84d.html) with tracks from 13/18 albums, only one track I’ve not seen played but a few that haven’t been played in a while. Clips show they’re sounding good, really looking forwards to the ...

Rabenschwarz translates as Raven Black, German equivalent of Jet Black (I’ve been informed, I don’t speak German)

Anja (Xmal Deutschland vocalist) has a solo album coming out, 1st track off it ‘Rabenschwarz’ is out now, I can’t get enough of it. https://youtu.be/kIM6K0XU3oQ?si=KI3O1SqFpz4P2Ue3 Also coming out is an album of early Xmal, track pre-released from that is a live variant of Allien, also worth a liste...

Phenomenal band, their first three albums are probably not beaten by any other artist (although a few do come close). And as you say, great live, including with Noko on their reformation.

Quite liking the new PiL album. It sounds more PiL than recent offerings. There's deffo a nod to the past sound of PiL. Some tasty little guitar in parts and nice lyrics. The album is let down by 2 or 3 tracks that are pretty lame by comparison. Jim I’m also really enjoying new album, some great bi...

It's not just his singing, i dont think baz has any experimental instincts. He seems to be able to mimic a strangler sound in a track, but not come up with left field ideas of his own. Its all soft rock. He's what the stranglers need for good performances and fun time on tour, but not for a mind bl...

Still really enjoy it, not up their with their best, but top 10 IMO.
My favourite track is still ‘No Mans Land’ (would love to hear that live)
