I only stopped my subs because I could not keep up.
If I could firmly keep up with every Wire released regardless of time tackled I'd still fund them.

Thanks friend. You always have interesting observations. Btw, If you are confused about the Sound Cloud access by I, it's because I was thinking of paying for Pro again, but in the end just Band Camp.
Hmm hm. I'm back on the Lichens issue. 403. I am also planning to revisit the Mono/Poly album I bought at boomkat.com in 2014. There's an interesting letter sent in by someone who liked a Mike Barnes review, and calling the generalised view of column reviews insipid because of length.

What particularly excites you from a Wire review?

all sorts of things really...
— if it's by someone I already know and like — reference to stuff I already like — a strongly positive assessment — unusual instrumention or tuning — if there's a woman involved — if it's of historical interest — random stuff for instance, in the Size Matters section of The Wire #409, I've already noted to listen to (more than usual here): Rudolf Eb.er — seen him Valentina Magaletti — "ceramic sculpture in the shape of several drums" Thurston Moore & John Wiese — seen both them Noisepoetnobody — "struck prayer bowl sequences and clanging of many hues" Onion Engine — "lopsided percussion" "maybe electronic in nature" Secluded Bronte — "somewhere between avant garde musical theatre and Doggerel Bank" Suburban Homes — "another great gasp of 1978 Small Wonder gas" (since I have quite a few SW records of that era) ![]()

Many reasons why people are excited about life love and music and Wire

"...without quite finding the need to record it. For a second i thought this meant there wasn't transparency in recording. But that's, wrong.
The maddening of the situation, is that i just don't understand it".
