Wire will return with Mind Hive, their first album in three years, on January 24 via Pink Flag. They’ve shared the first single, “Cactused,” which is the kind of off-kilter pop that Wire basically pioneered. The video has the band in the studio and drummer Robert Grey on a tractor. Watch that below.
You can catch Wire on an East Coast/Midwest tour in March, including two Brooklyn stop at Music Hall of Williamsburg on 3/11 and 3/12. Tickets for both shows go on sale Friday, October 25 at 10 AM with an AmEx presale starting Wednesday (10/23) at 10 AM.
