The ever mind-expanding Wire. Odd notes, minor keys, uniquely textures chords, celestial synthesizer ambiences, stream-of-consciousness lyrics that can be personalized to the listener's sense of alienation, call-and-response effects with between the various instruments. Percussion always tight and commanding.11 years ago

very early gay band too. i used to argue with people that only liked the early wire. i loved 'kidney bingos' and the raw punk wire too; they were very important musically to me.12 years ago

wire are particularly brilliant because they were essentially two different bands. You had the miles ahead of its time punk and post-punk of Pink Flag, Chairs Missing and 154, and then Wire part 2 which gave us amazing songs such as this, Ahead, Point of Collapse, etc.13 years ago
