Classic Track Thursday


can you imagine if the Ramones were British, and more subversive? like, a fantastic lovechild of Sex Pistols and Ramones, only largely underrated in people's conception of essential punk music?

Wire - Mr Suit [mp3]

from Pink Flag (1977)
21 tracks. 35 minutes. yessssssss.

PLUS they are Rob Pollard's favourite band

The song "Mannequin" from the album is one of the greatest songs ever.

Cool. Doesn't stick around long enough to get annoying. Blur obviously were paying attention to that guitar sound too.
