WIRE
Nine Sevens
2025 UK 2xLP RSD reissue
LTD. ED. of 1200
A killer collection of Wire’s early Harvest singles, as well as some more obscure later-period songs.
The second record of the later stuff is a wild turn away from the first disc of more familiar classic Wire, but it seems kinda perfect, as Wire have always been wildly unpredictable during their long, stellar existence.
The early songs speak for themselves, clearly. However, my favorite moment here might be “Second Length (Our Swimmer)”; a song that was recorded in 1980 around the time following the release of 154, but didn’t see the light of day until 2014.
A live version from Notre Dame Hall appeared on the live release Document And Eyewitness, but THIS version is like Christmas for a Wire fanatic.
A killer release worth having, which these days, is a rarity for RSD releases.
Choreography of Lines - a sculpted symphony of movement captured in space.
When stillness dances, and form becomes breath.
