The Stranglers Announce March 2013 Tour Dates
In 1977 the Stranglers released their extraordinary debut album, Rattus Norvegicus and firmly established themselves as the world’s first progressive punk outlaws.
The Stranglers first new album for six years, Giants, was released in March 2012.The record was critically acclaimed and saw the band complete another hugely successful UK tour, quickly followed by 23 dates in Europe.
Seminal long players like No More Heroes and Black and White followed before the band released probably the finest live album of that era, Live (X Cert). Later that year the Stranglers surprised and surpassed all expectations by releasing the gentler more evocative album The Raven and it is that album’s legacy that’s left its mark on latter-day Stranglers recordings.
During the Summer,the band played V Festivals,Hop Farm and Isle of Wight in the UK.They also played Germany’s major festival,Rock Am Ring & Rock Am Park and shows in Estonia,France,Belgium and Turkey.
