Is posteverything taking pre-orders for these? Can we order now or will more details be forthcoming. I'm very interested in the box set. 2. I can't believe that the inclusion of the b-sides was that disruptive to the album flow - although, certainly, I respect Wire's opinion. To me - since the singles occurred after the end of the record, they seemed like a parenthetical thought. I do support the idea that the artist should have control of their product - imagine if someone added a little extra color to the Mona Lisa, for example. However, in some way, those extras were included for the sake of those who missed out on the original UK vinyl/single/EP/bonus disc/etc. releases as a chance to hear those songs. Now, with the albums restored to their original vinyl state, how will we get this material in the future? I'm almost thinking it's time for a Wire singles anthology. I had once sequenced a cassette tape (remember those? ^_^ ) that consisted of Wire's singles (and occasional EPs) - A & B sides - in chronological order. Only one (or twice) did a single track duplicate an album track - most of the time the songs were either brand new - or extensively reworked/rethought/remodeled! It made for an excellent listen. You got a real sense of how quickly Wire progressed. On a 90 minute tape, the first side was 77-79 (including the post-EMI projects), and the second side was the 86-91 era. A double CD should probably be able to collect all the material - or possibly a single disc for each era. I always thought you couldn't understand the full picture Wire was "painting" if you didn't hear the associated singles.

I can't say that I'm pacing around the room - too busy with all of the stunning dubstep releases that are piling up, and with trying to work out whether I like the Liars record as much as I think I might possibly like it - but I was hugely partial to "A Grand..." and will be delighted if the new one is even vaguely as good. The point about Mike Skinner, I think, is that he's a much, much better writer than he often gets credit for. He has an exquisite, almost literary eye for intimate detail - a small gesture or an incidental object is so often the (off-)centre of an incredibly vivid mental picture - and he uses it to create popular songs with genuine wit, heart and honesty. So much more than the blokey novelty act that he's often mistaken for.
