Released 1979Punk & New Wave
Classic

A textured, art-rock peak of post-punk invention. Bold and acclaimed. A high point. Released in 1979, it's one of Wire's later high points.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
