Right now I am listening to Wire. This is a band whose balls you, sir, can just suck.
-
I am a fan of your trolling style, Cioran.

Wire are fuck*ng brilliant. Absolutely top notch
Pink Flag is so good it hurts.

Pink Flag is my girl's favorite album, because she is way cooler than me.
I really like it, but mostly just 12XU.
What college radio is to me: playing 12XU, and then coming on the microphone to scream "MORE", and then playing the Minor Threat cover.
Yeah, Wire are good. But sometimes they are a little too "we are smart and disengaged" for me. I spend too much of my time being smart and disengaged, I don't want it in music too.
See also: Magnetic Fields.

although lately I am also in this grumpy thing where I convince myself I don't like things that much, and then when I listen to them I'm like WAIT, THIS IS AWESOME.
but really I want human warmth in my music, which I feel like is present in Wire's music more than critics want to say it is.
I want my post-punk messy and as far away from Joy Division as possible.
YEAH! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR1dC0EvpQU)
I will never get enough of scratchy guitars.
I can't find the album version of that song anywhere. I like it a lot.

Definitely agree on the warmth, there is far more present than people would like to let-on due to their love of detachment.
I like Joy Division a lot but it's winter and I want something which doesn't want to kill me
And that song is brill but I have lost it from my music files

Pink Flag is practically a concept album about trying to love.
Mag Fields: try "100,000 Fireflies" for a lovely warm tune.
