Very consistent with the sound of the self-titled and "Nocturnal Koreans" albums. They've purged the oddness that Bruce Gilbert brought, which I'm of two minds about.

They've not done anything worldbeating since Read & Burn 03, the last thing Gilbert was involved with. Plenty of good,but no amazing. Maybe this is different

My sense with Gilbert via the Read and Burn book was that he was always on his own creative wavelength and that his path and that of Wire's no longer needed to cross. Which I think is a healthy viewpoint, really.
