Another Stranglers concept album, but a much lesser work than forerunner La Folie.
While not an instant classic, it does repay repeated listening -- especially the rustic English charms of "Midsummer Night's Dream" and the more Eurocentric "Last Tango in Paris" and "All Roads Lead to Rome." Instead of the belligerent tunefulness of yesteryear, the Stranglers were trying to expand their sound and reach.
Too often on this lackluster effort, however, it comes across as boring and unengaging.
