The eponymous debut album
Britpop classic. I'm not so sure its stood the
test of time as an album but Line Up and Connection,Waking Up will live on.
Track listing
- Line Up (3:15) Wire like stomper. Short sharp dirty riffs and pulsing bass. Plus someone going 'Urrghhh' a lot.
- Annie (1:13) Short punkish number
- Connection (2:20)Great in indie clubs. Guaranteed to get your granny in the mosh pit.
- Car Song (2:24) Raunchy slightly silly track. Justine's posh and naughty mouthings provide cheap thrills.
- Smile (1:40) No messing solid track
- Hold me now (2:32) Starts with Justine chatting. Boy is she posh!Don't stop shaking it's my head that makes me want to second guess at distance hoping there's a method to your madness baby
- S.O.F.T (3:58)
- Indian Song (2:46) Ride like harmonies.
- Blue (2:21) Quiet start, count of one,two,three,four. Crank up the amp.
- All-Nighter (1:33) Simple but effective garage punk. Justine screams sexily.
- Waking Up (3:15) Great track. Turn the volume up full.
- 2:1 (2:31) Wire will be contacting their lawyers.
- Vaseline (1:22) For some reason this is one of my favourites. Despite the tawdry implications.
- Never Here (4:26) Hints of Brett Anderson and Justine's relationship.
you were far to busy writing
lines that didn't scan
and you lent me your records
and I lent you an ear
- Stutter (2:23) Anthem to female frustration with men who are crap at sex.
is there something you lack when I'm flat on my back
