    Wire is a great band who have often been daunting to approach, so the really dazzling thing about Object 47 is just how approachable and digestible it is.
  2. Prefix Magazine
    90
    Of all the bands in the rock canon, Wire may be the best embodiment of the term "forward-thinking" that is so vogue nowadays, and Object 47 keeps with the mantra with stunning results.
  3. Dusted Magazine

    Various people have tried to explain to me why I find Object 47 so frustrating.... My inclination is to forget all that and just play the last four tracks over and over.
