The spartan, fearsome British postpunk heroes Wire recorded a shitload of songs during their late-’70s glory period, but they wrote and performed even more — enough, in fact, that they’re only now getting around to recording some of them. On their new album Change Becomes Us, the still-sharp band has compiled a bunch of the songs they never got around to recording. All of them come from 1979 and 1980, the same period that produced the deathless 154. [Source]
