I saw them on the tour they did to promote Dreamtime. They were still rather good live. The song "Big In America" from that album sounded goood live.

Usually Aural Sculpture is cited as the last worthwhile album but I really don't get it, I think it sucks. Bland 80s pop... The title track of Dreamtime is pretty good, AS has nothing that comes close.

For me Feline is the last true Stranglers record.

The best post-Feline track for me is this solo track from Hugh

But in the postwar Middle East, these notions persisted in elements of radical nationalist and Isl?mist politics."
