■   Feline is the seventh studio album by The Stranglers and was released in January 1983 (on the Epic record label in the United Kingdom). The first edition came with a free one–sided 7” single “Aural Sculpture Manifesto”. Feline drew heavily on two of the dominant musical influences in Europe of the time, by using primarily acoustic guitars and electronic drums as well as Dave Greenfield’s synthesizers. The American edition of the album included the British hit single “Golden Brown” as the closing track on side one of the original vinyl (and the fifth song in on the CD version).
■   Mastered at The Town House.
■   Printed by Shorewood Packaging, pressed by Carlton Productions.Discography:
