Yo La Tengo is pretty useless, but I can see why they would put them on the cover instead of Kagel, who was in the same issue. On the other hand, if some indie...
Having just started reading Michael Moorcock's Dancers at the End Of Time trilogy I looked him up online. I've now seen that there was a 1973 film of one of...

Yeah, I've recorded my toilet too. Wire staff take note! I'm 18 years of age and would rather read about Tod Dockstader than Matmos. That's Tod Dockstader....

People who think that Matmos and Yo La Tango are "mainstream" bands should turn on their Tv one morning and have a look at what is really mainstream music. :-)...
Thanks for reminding me, I forgot. HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shouldn't you be doing more of your "conspiracy" research instead of playing on the Wire list?...
Why not? Plenty of people who like all those bands could easily get into other music. I was one of those indie schmoes who picked up an issue back in '90,...

Talking bout that I'm really looking forward for the Matmos french kissing Mauricio Kagel... maybe that would turn "mainstream" headz onto 20th century...
One reason is Kagel's eyes are quite sensitive and he cannot have flash pictures taken of himself. ... -- -Kraig Grady North American Embassy of Anaphoria...

ok... so here's a poser... something the I, as an 'artist' have often wondered... what makes someone a 'serious' artist rather than a 'pop musician' or 'rock ...
... Dancers at the End Of ... his Jerry ... Yup - lot's of bad psychedelia. It's not really in the spirit of the book, and the ending has been changed, but it...
Can I use this moment to hark to the halcyon days when Michael goddamned Jackson was on the cover of Wire? That was the degree to which they used to fuck with...
... Basically, composure. The way they act, talk in public, the way they perceive themselves and carry that perception over to the masses. 'Seriousness' is not...
