dlloyd Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 I think the challenge you're really facing is to come up with a name that says "The Stranglers" to people who have only a passing familiarity with the band. It's got to be blunt as hell. "No More Zeroes" doesn't quite jump up and shout Stranglers to me. Quote
Monkey Steve Posted April 4, 2017 Posted April 4, 2017 [quote name='Kevin Dean' timestamp='1491250831' post='3271630'] His first suggestion was "Tank" He said there is nothing wishy washy about that name .......But there is a band with that name I think . His second was "The Wranglers" & "No More Zeroes" [/quote] I love Tank! First couple of albums are highly recommended, especially if you like Motorhead. There are currently two different versions of Tank in operation - one with the original singer/bass player (Algy Ward) and one with all the people that have been recruited by Algy over the years before he decided that he'd had enough and was leaving the band...before then deciding that he wasn't quite done yet and should call his new band (effectively a solo effort) "Tank", what with it being his band after all... Probably best to stay out of the middle of that one, Quote
