WIRE, the post-punk pioneers who always seem to be one step ahead of the game.
Their sophomore album Chairs Missing is a masterclass in experimental, boundary-pushing music that perfectly blends innovation with catchiness.
From the opening track "Practice Makes Perfect", it's clear that WIRE are not content to stick to the traditional formulas of rock music.
The off-kilter rhythms and angular guitar riffs create a sense of unease that is both unsettling and utterly captivating.
Tracks like "Outdoor Miner" and "I Am the Fly" showcase the band's knack for creating infectious melodies that will stick in your head for days.
The sparse, minimalistic production allows every element of the music to shine, from the pulsating basslines to the icy synths.
But it's not all serious business with WIRE.
Songs like "Sand in My Joints" and "French Film Blurred" show off the band's dry sense of humour, with wry lyrics that poke fun at everything from relationship woes to the music industry itself.
Overall, Chairs Missing is a dazzling display of WIRE's musical prowess, showcasing a band that is constantly evolving and pushing the boundaries of what is possible in rock music.
If you're looking for an album that will challenge and delight in equal measure, look no further than Chairs Missing.
