Wire have a new mini-LP coming soon with the intriguing title: Nocturnal Koreans. Here is a taster track and very good it is too. Wire are getting close to their 40th anniversary, they have largely avoided becoming a punk nostalgia act which would have been lucrative for them – instead they make music they like, put it out and play it live (and indeed if you see them live most of the set will be new or relatively new stuff) –
New one from Wire – Internal Exile
Looking forward to this. After seeing them live a few weeks ago (loud and uncompromising as ever) Wire nostalgia button currently pressed by “A Houseguest’s Wish” – an album of cover versions of “Outdoor Miner” – none of which quite captive the mystery and menace of the original.
