However; sometimes I feel as if perhaps a little too much is being assumed or constructed in terms of intent and meaning when the author is analyzing the groups lyrics and process.13 of 14 people found the following review helpful. buy it if you like WireBy C. F. MageeThis is the first 33 1/3 book that Ive read; and if many of the others are nearly this good; it wont be my last.Thoughts: - Wilson Neate is clearly a huge Wire fan and it appears that he has written the exact book that he wouldve wanted to read as a fan. - Its practically bulging with quotes from Wire members; related parties; and notable fans. In fact; the only ALMOST bad thing I can think of to say about this book is that some of the bio-type material tends to meander a bit because Neate seems to want all of his interviewees to get their two cents in. I cant really fault him for this; and it wasnt annoying or confusing. Its a good thing; in a way. I just figured I should toss something not entirely positive into this review for varietys sake. - I thought that the background info on Wire was very satisfying. I cant say Ive ever tried incredibly hard to find this level of information for myself; but Ive read Wires pages on Wikipedia and AllMusic and Neate goes far past the standard "they met at art school and made punk music that wasnt really punk" generalities. It really breaks down exactly how and often WHY Wire was separate from typical punk rock. Neate does a great job pulling together some fantastic candid interview material from all the right people; which really helps to contextualize Wire and Pink Flag in their time and place. - Several Wire members describe their early childhood inclinations towards music (or; more simply; "sound") and I personally found that fascinating. They also discuss their very limited musical abilities and how they overcame them with sheer creativity and hard work. Its really very inspiring... great to read if you have any kind of desire to start your own band. - Neate does break the album down song-by-song; with each song getting anywhere between a few paragraphs to several pages of discussion. Ive only gotten to track five ("Start to Move") but this section is very thorough and illuminating. The great comments from the band members and music biz fans keep on coming. - Finally; theres a ~5 page conclusion that I havent read but Im sure its nothing sort of fascinating just like the rest of the book.So yeah; great book; well-written by Neate. Detailed without being tedious.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. When the words run out; it stops.By David PiniellaSolid and as in-depth as youre liable to get on a 35-minute long album from 1977. Neate goes in-depth; covering both the history of the bands beginning; the art; the songs themselves and briefly goes into some of the recent history of the band and album reissues. Covers everything it needs to and stops when its over. Just like Wire.
