Known for hits like “Golden Brown,” “Peaches,” and “No More Heroes,” their music fused punk, new wave, and rock with dark, intelligent lyricism and driving basslines. Over decades, they have remained one of the UK’s most enduring and influential bands, evolving while maintaining their trademark edge and wit. The Stranglers’ legacy continues to inspire new generations of rock and alternative artists worldwide.
