Hugh’s new album Moments Of Madness is available to buy on vinyl and CD and is also available on streaming sites.

Self-produced, Moments of Madness finds Hugh flexing his musical muscles with a stripped down, offbeat, reverberating sixties vibe ringing with seductive melodies and distinctive lyrics that are indelibly stamped with Hugh’s trademark imagination. Vocally and lyrically, Hugh has never sounded so good.

“Cornwell’s still doing things his way and often with striking results.” MOJO, 4 Stars

“Thunderously tribal garage-rock… the ex-Strangler not yet gone soft.” Uncut

“The one constant with Hugh Cornwell albums is that they’re never dull.” Classic Rock

“Moments Of Madness creates a universe where Stranglers hardcore and newcomer alike can revel.” Record Collector, 4 Stars

“A high watermark and a modern-day masterpiece, Moments of Madness is being tipped as the most significant album of Hugh’s illustrious career.” Velvet Thunder

“Moments of Madness, a call back to his rock roots, is a late-flowering classic from a man who has always known how to write a good tune.” Louder Than War, 8/10

“Moments of Madness’ ten tracks finds Cornwell flexing his musical muscles with a stripped down, offbeat, reverberating sixties vibe ringing from what have been declared “seductive melodies and lyrically distinctive perceptions” stamped throughout.” RAMzine

“‘Coming Out of the Wilderness’ is a cold-rolled vent with back-to-back boilerplate rhythms, a cool incantational atmosphere, and clangs of guitar that seem to vibrate across the scene like scratched pennies clawed across crinkled sewer grates.” Raw Ramp

“The once and forever Strangler brings a dirty-riffing lurch of no surrender from new album Moments of Madness.” MOJO, 4 Stars

“A returning Cornwell is in clearly fine fettle” “a hugely enjoyable journey through the thoughts and musings of one of the most mercurial minds working in modern music.” Vive Le Rock, 8/10

“A hugely impressive and enjoyable album. Highly recommended.” Fireworks

“’Red Rose’ is certainly nostalgic. The experience was a bit like listening to Bowie’s Velvet Goldmine, picked-over by Lou Reed, and nonchalantly accompanied by “Woody” Woodmansey on loose-wristed drums.” Raw Ramp

“Widely regarded as the poet laureate of the punk era” and certainly, the ten songs here are wonderful in their use of language that verges on the unique, but it’s only when you add it together with the truly bewildering kaleidoscope of musical styles that you realise how good Moments Of Madness is.” Maximum Volume Music
