1979 UK Original Featuring Laminated, Limited Edition Lenticular Cover And Custom Inner Sleeve. Scan Does Not Do Justice To This Stunning 3-D Cover. LP Appears Glossy, Unplayed. “The Raven Is Somewhat Of A Transitional Album From The Phenomenal Stranglers. The Songs Straddle Their Raw And Aggressive Stylings From Their First Three Iconic Albums With The More Melodic, Pop Orientation Found On Their Subsequent Lps. Originally Released On UK's United Artists With A 3-D Cover, The Raven Is A Great Album. The Songs That Retain Some Of Their Earlier Punk Style Are "Dead Loss Angeles" And "Nuclear Device". Other Great Cuts Include "Genetix" , Incredibly Sung By Keyboard Player Dave Greenfield, "Baroque Bordello", "Sha Sha A Go Go" And "Duchess". The Entire Album Is A Winner From Start To Finish. Another Standout Is "Don't Bring Harry". A Great Album From One Of The Most Important Bands From The '77 Punk Era.” Mark Yokel, AMG.
