Wire - Send

Posted by: Tim Jones on 16 June 2003

Having waited two months, the new Wire CD finally arrived at my flat before I left for work this morning, while in a spooky moment the vinyl version arrived at work as I got there this morning.

It's very, very good. The short, slabby, breakneck songs of Pink Flag are there, but so are the bigger soundscapes of 154. The whole thing sounds incredibly visceral and compelling, and distinctive. It also has a unique electricity that, for all their worth, "new wave revival" bands like yeah Yeah Yeah seem to lack.

The songs are nice cyclic, and varying guitar tone from each member is a refreshing change.

Now, How can I get Read & Burn 2 ?????

Courage, mon brave, ATM the website says:

No indication when it'll be available, but they do have a form you can fill in to be notified.
