Surely the Stranglers have always been a PRUNK band (well at least since Raven)? NB: prog/punk
Water is a million miles away from anything off the raven

My only criticism would be JJ 's voice is sounding a bit strained on some of the verses. I guess that happens to a lot of singer's when they get older. Sounds great on the chorus though. 8)

I'm not sure about the cheerful keyboard sound after 'innocent people were slain' and 'shot them down in cold blood'. :lol:

Yes i find i'm playing Water more than when i first got the album,it really is one of their most classic sounding stranglers songs on DM i think.For me its still White Stallion and No Man's Land and moon with Water are my favourite four with Breathe too.
