The Stranglers | La Folie | Album

Released in November 1981, La Folie is the pivotal sixth studio album by English rock band The Stranglers, serving as the definitive turning point where they successfully shed their aggressive punk roots to embrace a sophisticated, synth-driven new wave and baroque pop sound. Co-produced by the legendary Tony Visconti, it stands as a loose concept album exploring the different, often dark facets of love (the title translating from French as "The Madness").
