    "Honed to a fine performance edge from their live forays to Europe earlier in the year, WIRE present their fierce, high-velocity set based around their highly successful album SEND. Their first album in over a decade, marked a return to their trademark gimlet, shivved, short sharp shocked writing style.
    Filmed by visual artist Tom Gidley in forensic detail, this document shows the complete visceral set and deliberately excludes the usual rock music celebration of place and time, instead
    concentrating on giving the viewer the closest of contact with a band often misrepresented as enigmatic, cold and distant.
    Also included is a bonus selection of pieces captured by Observation Camera #1 of the second half of WIRE's April 2003 Flag:Burning performance/installation at the Only Connect festival at The Barbican, London.
    The set by avant stage designer Es Devlin was specifically commissioned by WIRE for this one-off performance.
    Whilst based on the same body of work as the performance at Triptych, this is WIRE seen from the other end of the telescope, willingly surrendering their personal performance to the service of the machinery of a unique, complex theatrical spectacle in a manner rarely allowed in the rock world rife with ego and self-aggrandisement."
    The Scottish Play: 2004 was released on 25 March 2005 on Pink Flag records.

    I can't remember if it was the following night or not, but I do believe it was the next gig. Aberdeen. I was at uni there and saw bands as diverse as Faust and Arab Strap while in that cold, wet joint. The Wire gig was like having teeth pulled but with feelings of ecstasy as opposed to pain. It was brutal and it was comforting. Torture and contentment. Rage and peace. Yeah, I could go on all night. I feel privileged to have witnessed this the following evening. Oh, I also had Tinnitus for weeks afterwards due to standing too close to the speakers during this group of old dudes making music that was more essential than anyone else's at the time; well, except what was way underground...

    - I found no better than this vid to put my old hi-fi gear from the late 70's to the test, after all these years : well, I must say my NEC 8000 Series amplifier feeding the pair of big bass-reflex 3-A three-way speakers told me that time is of very little effect on them. And my 4 walls complained to the police about the volume too...

      - Radiohead is like a "beyond the consumption date limit band", which means that you can chew this meat at your own risk, where Wire is the forever- stubborn post-modern archetypical formation you're always hungry for. It is worth noticing that it should be the other way round : look at the dates... but there I was talking about sheer inspired music and inventiveness of course.

    Wire illustrates the difference between art and entertainment. Entertainment aims to give the audience what they pay for, like a hooker. Art aims to make you think about the nature of what you are seeing or hearing. What is the nature of rock at this moment of technology and culture?
