Our Take

The Stranglers "Rattus Norvegicus" is a frenetic explosion of punk energy that will have you bouncing off the walls faster than you can say "No More Heroes." From the moment you press play, this album grabs you by the throat and doesn't let go until the last note fades away.

With their signature blend of raw, gritty vocals and razor-sharp guitar riffs, The Stranglers prove once again why they are one of the most iconic bands of the punk era. Tracks like "Hanging Around" and "Peaches" are absolute bangers that will have you pogoing around your living room like it's 1977 all over again.

But what sets "Rattus Norvegicus" apart from other punk albums of the time is its undeniable sense of humour. The band's tongue-in-cheek lyrics and irreverent attitude shine through on every track, making this more than just another angry punk record. The Stranglers know how to have a laugh, even while they're tearing down the establishment.

So if you're looking for an album that will make you want to jump around like a loon while also making you think, look no further than "Rattus Norvegicus." It's a timeless classic that deserves a place in every punk lover's record collection. Grab your safety pins and leather jacket, and let The Stranglers take you on a wild ride.

About the artist

The Stranglers

The Stranglers: The Men in Black with a Punk Rock Heart Hailing from the gritty streets of London, The Stranglers burst onto the music scene in the late 1970s with their unique blend of punk rock and new wave vibes. With their signature sound that mixed aggressive guitar riffs with melodic keyboard lines, The Stranglers quickly carved out a niche for themselves in the fiercely competitive music industry. Led by the enigmatic frontman Hugh Cornwell, The Stranglers are known for their electrifying live performances that never fail to get the crowd bouncing. With hits like "Golden Brown" and "No More Heroes," the band's music is a perfect mix of catchy hooks and raw energy that keeps fans coming back for more. But what truly sets The Stranglers apart from their peers is their fearless attitude towards pushing musical boundaries. From experimenting with reggae rhythms to incorporating electronic elements into their sound, The Stranglers have never been afraid to take risks and try new things. With over four decades in the music industry under their belts, The Stranglers are still going strong and showing no signs of slowing down. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual listener, one thing is for sure – The Stranglers are a band that continues to captivate and inspire audiences around the world.
