True to their style, the Struts keep the commercial gloss of the 80s hair-rock and all the indispensable ingredients of a successful glam-rock album: solid gold riffs, thumping rhythms, huge choruses and endless air-punchers. Strange Days was recorded in a modern synthetic tone and a contemporary beat, with the humorous and tongue-approaching-cheek attitude that characterizes the Britons. However, this time around they have the aid of Tom Morello ("Wild Child"), Robbie Williams ("Strange Days"), Albert Hammond Jr ("Another Hit of Showmanship") and duet Phil Collen & Joe Elliot from Def Leppard ("I Hate How Much I Want You"), which adds versatility to the end result. I found the whole album enjoyable with particular mention to the rock and roller "All Dressed Up", the arena rocker "Do You Love Me" and the entertaining "Am I Talkingrto the Champagne".

As one of the first volumes of the "Quarantine Album" era that occurred during the Pandemic's early days, this serves as both a cultural mark for where the world was, and an impressive showcase of the band's hook writing prowess. Recorded in 10 days the band shows more variety and stronger ideas/ performances than their 2018 Sophomore release. A flash in the bottle, capturing a dreary and depressing era in modern society accented with The Struts happy go lucky quirks. All made more interesting with a more self reflective mature focus on tracks like the excellent opener "Strange Days".
