The Stranglers have been making records since 1977, the same year that the Sex Pistols released Never Mind The Bullocks. Unlike the Pistols however, The Stranglers are still very much a going concern. Instrumental opening track Another Camden Afternoon has a slight Peter Gunn-feel to it while Freedom Is Insane, Lowlands and the nostalgic Time Was Once On My Side show that while the hair may be a tad greyer, The Stranglers have yet to become a parody of their former selves. And that is no small task in this day and age.
