Wire: me and my mate love you. We used to see you down the Marquee 1977/78. You were always ace.

Backflips! the day I discovered these gem UK gents. One of punk's first wave best & brightest innovators. 'Mr. Suit' playing on CBC Radio 2 brought me to them. Any idea anyone on their next Canada tour, sadly missed out last time around a few years ago!

a friend of mine said to me "Wire is the music of choice for manic depressives" What could i retort? i AM a manic-dep...

Such a curious little sound poking its head up through all that chaos. Makes a nice outro.

It's All In The Brochure

Pink Flag (RFH Version)

The double-barreled bombast of debut single “Cynthy-Ruth” (2095) is the cut rocking our rock ‘n roll stethoscopes. This is a bonafide classic, with its hard-boiled encroaching haze of wah-wahs, soulscarring grunts and ‘Hoo-Hoo’ uppercuts.

Walking Across the Field

Since their formation in London in 1976, the members of Wire have maintained and advanced a musical project which treats the creative potential of a rock band as a fluid, amorphous medium. As removed from self-conscious intellectualism as they are from the inherent conservatism of much rock music, Wire employ their unique, endlessly restless and risk-taking creativity to question every aspect of songwriting, recording and performance. They delight and disturb in equal measure, troubleshooting the circuitry of perfect pop, or patrolling the limits of focused experimentalism. In terms of working together as Wire, the group's members disbanded in 1980, reformed in 1985, disbanded in 1992 and reformed for the second time in 2000. Such sabbaticals from their career as Wire have served to sharpen the group's edge and focus, updating the tactics with which they pursue this shared project.
