Gee, thanks but I don't read anything you can buy or pick up for free in

Agreed.  This is one band that never really lived up to their total
potential and the new stuff may just fufill their promise.  Over-rated
by their cult and ignored by the rest of the weenies, Wire is worth
buying up their back log if you're into anything that doesn't suck.

A recording of this is available from a Forced Exposure 7" one-sided

and on New Alliance as a domestic 7" in case you're wondering.
