There is less overt anger and insolence than in the past, and in its place is plenty of dark weirdness. truly disturbing at certain points, this album is a challenging listen. Beginning with the sinister \u003ci\u003eI Should Have Known Better\u003c\/i\u003e a song that has so little to do with the same-titled Beatles song that it really is scary, \u003ci\u003e154 \u003c\/i\u003efollows with the shambling, atonal \u003ci\u003eTwo People in a Room\u003c\/i\u003e and the choppy, robotic guitars of \u003ci\u003eThe 15th.\u003c\/i\u003e The fiendish \u003ci\u003eA Touching Display \u003c\/i\u003esounds like music for a primitive rite, while on \u003ci\u003eA Mutual Friend\u003c\/i\u003e, close british invasion-flavoured harmonies collide with harsh, dangerous-sounding guitar chords. The highlight here, and arguably the most incredible song in Wire's book, is \u003ci\u003eMap Ref. 41 n, 93 w. \u003c\/i\u003ewords fail to conjure the otherworldly majesty of this track.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCD - Remastered Digipack CD Version.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLP - Remastered Vinyl with Inner Sleeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e3CD - Remastered Triple CD Version with 80-page hardback book.
