Reviews5 stars out of 5 - "...ON RETURNING traces their astounding development from the PINK FLAG, CHAIRS MISSING and 154 albums, from bristling pop-punks to moody experimentalists...", 8 out of 10 - "...hear nothing less than the ultimate pre-post and post punk band....very excellent, very sarcastic and very short songs on one compilation...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...unbridled experimentation and scintillating tunes....ineffably memorable pop tunes...this remains fascinating stuff."

  • Wire On Returning CD Review

    An experimental purchase on my part. An interesting listen. Wire have clearly been very influential. On first listen, I could hear Gang Of Four, Elastica & Howard Devoto in there. The first half of the CD is the stronger musically for me - with the latter half sounding more experimental. It's definitely not commercial in any way. That said, it's an interesting listen for a fiver. You've got to respect the band's creativity and the labels,who, back in the day had the guts to release this style of more 'awkward' music.
