There's a very recent (11/10) high-quality four-song Daytrotter Session available for downloading at:
http://daytrotter.com/article/1477/wire"What Newman, Lewis, Grey and then guitarist Bruce Gilbert made was an even odder kind of punk rock that was artful and could have been leather-bound though it would have shook itself right out of those constricting books and back out onto the streets. Really, for the working lads and the toiling people, Wire were and are still more for the poly-sci and mathematical brains than for the safety pins, the mosh pits and the mohawks. It’s a pronounced difference that’s driven home in all of the group’s various works – that this was music that deserved introspection and investigation."
"with touring auxiliary guitarist Margaret Fielder McGinnis" of Laika.
