The Stranglers, o2 Academy, Glasgow. Gig Review.

liverpoolstudentmedia.com

"The tour is built around the release of the new album Giants. To play a venue and expect a crowd to react in any way positively to new songs before the album has been released can be commercial suicide but with tracks such as Lowlands, Mercury Rising and Time Was Once on My Side incorporated into the evening’s sweaty entertainment, there was no stopping the audience pogoing around all night."

Review: The Stranglers, Glasgow Academy

"It was a gig that built slowly and with a heavy dose of indulgence for long-term fans, including the goth twang of The Raven and Sometimes’ Doors-like combination of Baz Warne’s cruising guitar and Dave Greenfield’s high-pitched keyboards."

Live Review: The Stranglers

"Despite showing age in their faces, The Stranglers used their Glasgow gig this past Saturday (3rd March) to show that their time on Earth has had little detrimental effect on their ability to get a crowd as old as them moving."

"The O2 Academy fills with a boisterous Saturday night crowd full of revelry and abandon. Both die-hard fans and those only recently dedicated to the iconic group are drawn in to soak up every moment of this bombastic gig."
