Back then, we blamed Bill Gates for everything we didn't like on the internet.

I'd love a Sore Loserman t-shirt from the time of the Florida recount. Republicans are pretty lame at funny sloganeering, but I liked that one.Kory wrote: ↑30 Jun 2022, 5:00pmI currently blame Al Gore.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑30 Jun 2022, 4:01pmBack then, we blamed Bill Gates for everything we didn't like on the internet.

You could do some sort of Dada-esque rehash where you use that logo but with a pic of trump or something. Really stick it back to 'em.

Re: So- how didn't I know the new Wire was out?
Damn but I'd love for Wire to release an album with this kind of snarl. One of those little gems that make being an obsessive worth it.

"Heartbeat" is exceptional understated Wire, but I think every cover I've heard of it is better than the original.

Re: So- how didn't I know the new Wire was out?
God damn but the Wir ep Vien is superb. If The First Letter is half-formed, Vien is, um, fully formed. Anyway, it's fantastic.

If you know He Said Omala, Lewis redid "Sexy + Rich" there (and better, but this version is still really good).Kory wrote: ↑22 Dec 2022, 4:32pmI'll relisten today, it's been a time.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 Dec 2022, 8:27pmGod damn but the Wir ep Vien is superb.

Catch Supposes might be my favourite GL solo work. Just a fantastic record.Kory wrote: ↑22 Dec 2022, 5:13pmI have a He Said album, but not a He Said Omala album, though I've been looking.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑22 Dec 2022, 5:03pmIf you know He Said Omala, Lewis redid "Sexy + Rich" there (and better, but this version is still really good).Kory wrote: ↑22 Dec 2022, 4:32pmI'll relisten today, it's been a time.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 Dec 2022, 8:27pmGod damn but the Wir ep Vien is superb.

edit: Listening to Catch Supposes right now. I'd place it higher than at least five Wire records.
