Alternative Sculpture....... The Rejected Rough LP



To coincide with the great piece on the official site that tells the fascinating story of the creation of the 'Aural Sculpture' album and the inter-band tensions that shaped its construction, Here in FLAC  (and MP3) format are the original demos that were laid down prior to the involvement of Laurie Latham.

I have always held the view that some of the best material that came out of the Aural Sculpture sessions were consigned to B-side status and of those one or two of these demo tracks should have made the final cut of the album proper.

Thanks to all of those involved in the preparation of these demos for the enjoyment of all. They have long been doing the rounds but never before with this sound quality.

'Behold... The Stranglers Bring You Alternative Sculpture'.

  1. Thank you for this great archive. The sound is very good, A big surprise to hear the sound without brass arrangement, and HERE AND THERE without the female voice (Dagmar Kreuze)
