Description

Wire - Read & Burn 03

Prior to the recent release of object 47, Read & Burn 03 was the first Wire release featuring entirely new material since 2003's Send. This 26-minute mini-album signals the stage-by-stage re-activation of the legendary and influential band as a recording and live entity. Read & Burn is the R&D series representing the state of Wire's art right now. Wire continues to evolve and offers here the fresh fruits of its latest development. It should be noted that tracks from Read & Burn 03 are not included on "Object 47" Wire's 2008 album release.

Reviews

"Read and Burn 03 is the Wire album I have been waiting for since 1980." Don Simpson, Los Angeles Journal

"No doubt here: It's Wire's time now, again and still." Mike Wolf, Time out NY

"Wire is still proving that they have the spark of brilliance as well as the ability to execute their musical ideas with grace and artfulness." Bob Ham, Amplifier

"The time is right for Wire, right now. Welcome them again, they've come back to save you." Charles Inskip, Artrocker

"Wire are right where they want to be. Thirty years after their debut album kicked off a brilliant initial run of three albums, they're respected and independent enough to work free of the usual recording industry constraints." Joe Tangari, Pitchfork
