V.A. No More Heroes: A Tribute to The Stranglers


Hey, Stranglers fans - come check out Ten MORE Great Stranglers videos (1978-1981) over at THE BIG TAKEOVER - please come take a look and leave a COMMENT to keep The Silence at bay!

Unlike, say, The Ramones, where doing a Xeroxed knock-off cover version is always an option, covering The Stranglers can be a daunting task. So, therefore, a lot of the bands on this 1998 Elevator Music Records collection of (mostly) American bands gives The Stranglers' catalog a more guitar-heavy, straight-up punk sound - like, say, The Ramones! Of course there's still variety of sounds here from oi!, to ska, to garage-rock and beyond, so check out some possible highlights below:



Comments on these (or others) Stranglers covers are most welcome!

Speaking of comments, that is the section wherein you will find the No More Heroes link.

    Thanks much for some more Stranglers music! I'm really enjoying listening to it again.. my 'Black & White' is a cassette that's AT LEAST 25 years old (it was a replacement)
