Stranglers In the Night (1992) |
About Time (1995) |
Stranglers in the Night opened the recording career of the Stranglers MK II, with Paul Roberts on vocals and John Ellis on guitar. It was also the first release on the band's own record label, "Psycho", in 1992. The band returned to a purer, less "produced" sound; the horns have departed and the songs have a less-constrained, harder edge. Styles vary from ballads such as "Southern Mountains" and "Grand Canyon" to the fast-paced "Sugar Bullets" and "Brain Box". The North American version of this album (with a white, rather than black, cover) contains three extra tracks ("Coffee Shop", "Vicious Circles" and "So Uncool"), which were originally B-sides in Britain.
