Aural Sculpture

Product Information

The Stranglers' final album with Cornwell, 10, was released in 1990. This was recorded with the intention of building on their "cult" status in America. Following the success of their cover of The Kinks' " All Day and All of the Night", a UK No.7 hit in 1988, the Stranglers released another '60s cover, " 96 Tears" as their first single from 10; it reached No.17 in the UK. Despite this success, the follow-up single "Sweet Smell of Success" only reached No.65. "Man of the Earth", which the band had high hopes for, was due to be the third single from the album, but Epic Records decided against it. In August 1990, Hugh Cornwell abruptly left Stranglers to pursue a solo career, following the band's failure to attain a tour in the US. [47] In his autobiography, Cornwell stated that he felt that the Stranglers were a spent force creatively, and cited various examples of his increasingly acrimonious relationship with his fellow band-members, particularly Burnel.

The first was at The Duke of Lancaster in New Barnet on Valentine's Day, [28] with further performances at The Red Cow, Hammersmith, and The Nashville Rooms, West Kensington, in early September.

In: Strangled fanzine, vol. 2, no. 19, November 1984, p. 12 Laurie also made suggestions to the band about their contributions, for example,that Dave should dust off his Hammond for certain songs. Dave recalls: ‘I don’t remember it being his suggestion but I’ve always enjoyed playing the Hammond! It is one of my favourite keyboards’. JJ’s basswas dropped down in the mix, assuming a more conventional position in the sound which the bassist agreed to: ‘I was quite happy to do that at the time, althoughI laterstarted to realise that actually my bass was an integral part of the Stranglers’ sound and without it we were less distinctive’. a b c Cornwell, Hugh; Drury, Jim (2001).

To pre-empt Sculpture‘s arrival, Skin Deep was chosen as the lead single and it was released in early October securing a top 20 chart position and a return to the BBC’s iconic Top Of The Pops’studio for the band. An accompanying video was also filmed with the band playing in front of the ear sculpture and tearing latex ‘skin’ from their faces.Aural Sculpture is the eighth studio album by the Stranglers, released in November 1984 by Epic Records. It was also the name given to a one-sided 7-inch single given free with a limited number of copies of their Feline album in 1983. The "Aural Sculpture Manifesto" on the 7" single was played before the Stranglers appeared on stage during concerts during both the 1983 "Feline" tour and the 1985 "Aural Sculpture" tour.

Нечто подобным будет заниматься Летов и ко в проекте Коммунизм) The Stranglers" поставили на рынок более коммерческий продукт "La Folie", породивший один из их главных хитов "Golden Brown". Альбом стал последним студийником, выпущенным под флагом "EMI", но во исполнение контрактных обязательств в свет вышла еще сборка "The Collection 1977-1982". Пристроившись под крышу "Epic Records", коллектив дебютировал на этой фирме с пластинкой "Feline", где, следуя общеевропейской моде, ввел в обиход акустические гитары и электронные ударные.
