The Stranglers are the last true survivors, most highly revered and original British bands to emerge from the late 70’s UK punk scene. If the Sex Pistols were the iconic British punk band of the late seventies, The Stranglers were the most genuine, a real reflection of what was going on whilst being the most commercially successful without any compromise. Four decades, 17 albums, and 24 Top 40 hit singles later, the four-piece originally from Guildford, is making a welcomed return to North America for the first time in 20 years and will be releasing their 17th studio album titled ‘Giants’, out on May 28.
With the forthcoming release of ‘Giants’, and their single ‘Mercury Rising’ out now and available as a free download in the US (sorry guys if you are somewhere else!), fans and newcomers now have the chance to experience and enjoy brand new material that remains ever so true to that classic Stranglers sound, and at their very best.

The Stranglers son los últimos sobrevivientes activos de la venerada escena punk inglesa de los ’70. Si los Sex Pistols fueron la banda británica más icónica de esa década, The Stranglers fueron un reflejo genuino de lo que estaba sucediendo en esas latitudes, siendo comercialmente exitosos pero sin comprometerse con el mainstream. Cuatro décadas, 17 discos y veinticuatro hits después, el cuarteto originario de Guilford, regresa con un nuevo disco titulado “Giants” y una gira por Norteamérica.
Con el lanzamiento de su nuevo material, que saldrá al mercado el 28 de abril, y su nuevo sencillo ‘Mercury Rising’, disponible gratuitamente sólo en Estados Unidos (lo lamentamos todos los que nos encontramos en otros países!), los fans y nuevos conocedores de The Stranglers podrán disfrutar y experimentar el nuevo material que se mantiene fiel al sonido clásico de la banda.
