Aural Sculptors - The Stranglers Live 1976 to the Present


Welcome to Aural Sculptors, a blog aimed at bringing the music of The Stranglers to as wide an audience as possible. Whilst all of the various members of the band that have passed through the ranks since 1974 are accomplished studio musicians, it is on stage where the band have for me had their biggest impact.

As a collector of their live recordings for many years I want to share some of the better quality material with other fans. By selecting the higher quality recordings I hope to present The Stranglers in the best possible light for the benefit of those less familiar with their material than the hardcore fan.

Needless to say, this site will steer well clear of any officially released material. As well as live gigs, I will post demos, radio interviews and anything else that I feel may be of interest.

In addition, occasionally I will post material by other bands, related or otherwise, that mean a lot to me.

Your comments and/or contributions are most welcome. Please email me at adrianandrews@myyahoo.com.

Ruts DC O2 Academy Newcastle 8th December 2013


Here's a birthday gig from the 2013 tour that saw Ruts DC sharing the stage with their old mates The Damned once again. I have to say that the omission of 'The Limit Club' from The Damned's set on this tour was something of a disappointment.

    Sounds good - it seems such a long time ago now...incidentally they played The Limit Club at the last show of the tour in Northampton, which ended with this - Merry Christmas everybody! L.H.
