My Question
My interest in music started near 1977 and in that period of time a band
called Wire appeared with their Pink Flag and I am very suprised they still
can struck me. Even now when they are working on their so they say MarkIII
period shows that they are not totally burnt out. And I think it's not by
coincidence cause many bands were inspired by them. Like REM, U2, Joy Division,
CarterUSM, Henry Rollins, Spoon, Big Black, Fennesz, Andrew McKenzie, Pansonic,
etc. Even Brendan Perry did before starting DCD playing Wire. 
So my question is: Has there ever been Wire-related output by Einstuerzende
Neubauten or by its members seperately. 
Another: Would it be possible to hear about a collaboration between the Pink
Flag-posse and EN? Because I think the relation modern art, politics, avant-garde
music, concepts are in both. Collapsed New Buildings with a Pink Flag on
it is not a bad concept. 



Blixa's answer
nothing against Wire, no, nothing against, but I don't think there was any
input on EN, when we started, I didn't listen to them, later I did, but was
somewhere completely different musically. But: Yes, nothing against them.
Strong Band.
