No More Heroes (album)

The album consists of new material with four songs left over from the Rattus Norvegicus sessions ("Something Better Change", "Bitching", "Peasant in the Big Shitty" and "School Mam").[4] The album cover features a photo of a wreath placed on a coffin with the tails of several rats (the Stranglers' trademark)."[6] Trouser Press wrote that No More Heroes "continues in the same vein [as Rattus Norvegicus], but drops whatever hint of restraint may have been in force the first time around.Rude words and adult themes abound, with no punches pulled, from the blatant sexism of "Bring on the Nubiles" to the sarcastic attack on racism ("I Feel Like a Wog") to the suicide of a friend ("Dagenham Dave").The popular hack and slash video game series No More Heroes by Grasshopper Manufacture got its name from the album.
