Re: dark matters chart chances

Not too bothered about the chart placings but would be nice to see The Stranglers do as well as the other older bands lately. E.g. Sparks. They've taken a good stab at the marketing for it imo

Re: Dark Matters review

First impressions... I found it refreshing

Standout tracks for me are Water, If Something, No Man's Land, Last Men On The Moon, White Stallion, and Breathe. Last 3 tracks are corkers!

Will give this album another spin tomorrow morning :grin:

Re: Dark Matters review

I'm also streaming on Spotify as we speak. No Man's Land is brilliant!

Agreed, let's just wait and see. In that place by the sea. Time will tell and let us see

Pretty solid rendition. Baz sounded better in it and Louie did a great job with the keys

Re: Singles

Aren't singles for a lot of acts just downloadable tracks with a video that can be shared on social media? I think there will be another couple of singles from the album. Why wouldn't there be? Yes why not. They only released Mercury Rising from Giants though didn't they. Personally if they're gonn...

Re: Dark Matters review

Me neither. As a music lover, I'm willing to try anything really and don't necessarily have to spend money on them these days :grin:

Re: If something's going to kill me...

Of all the the things to talk about, I'm the least concerned about how "fake" the trumpet sounds. It sounded good to me and complimented the song well

Re: If something's going to kill me...

Heard the song a few times now. I think I love the more calmer ending than the first half but the track itself is a bit like a journey building up towards a more contemplative feel imo. The video was stylish and it's cool to see the band investing more into that side of the business compared to the ...
