This recording captures the opening night of the first headline tour in Japan in 27 years by The Stranglers—London punk legends with a career spanning over 40 years who remain actively at the forefront of the scene.
As New Wave pioneers, The Stranglers were a punk band unlike any other; one might say their intellect was their greatest weapon, as their individual backgrounds and careers set them apart from other punks of the era. The setlist for this performance blends the new with the old. Although it is an audience recording, the sound is well-defined, offering audio quality that allows you to fully relive the experience of that night. It concludes perfectly with "No More Heroes." While Hugh Cornwell is also scheduled to visit Japan in February 2020, The Stranglers remain a band to watch closely. This is a must-buy not only for punk fans but for rock fans in general.
