Drums And Wires has been mastered by Jason Mitchell at LOUD mastering with input from Andy Partridge and is fully approved by XTC. Swindon's finest, XTC, produced an early classic album with the Steve Lillywhite produced Drums and Wires. Andy Partridge recalls it as an optimistic time for the band. Dave Gregory's arrival on guitar marked a shift in style with the group now configured as a twin guitar/bass/drums line-up. Despite an endless touring schedule much time was spent honing new material. Both Partridge and Colin Moulding were growing in confidence as songwriters - this album did much to further their reputation for peerless post-punk pop tunes. But it was also Steve Lillywhite and engineer Hugh Padgham's ability to give appropriate studio support and recording expertise to the more expansive pieces such as "Roads Girdle The Globe" and "Complicated Game" that helped to bring a new level of maturity to the overall feel of the release. Issued at the start of September, Drums and Wires entered the UK Albums Chart where it remained for a total of seven weeks, accompanied by another first for the band, a Top 20 UK (and international) hit single in album lead track "Making Plans for Nigel". The optimism of the recording sessions had proved justified. No longer with bonus 7 inch single.

We will then work with you to arrange for return shipping and/or replacement of your item.
Vinyl is an inherently a flawed medium so a slight wave in the record that does not affect play, or some surface noise is just part of this fun fun world we all love. Also, if you have a $40 record player and the record is skipping please know there’s a 99% chance the problem is the record player not the brand new record. “the suitcase” style all in one players are a fantastic way to find out if you love the idea of records as much as we do, but they can’t handle the weight of many modern records and they tend to skip on newer pressings. Minor corner dings/plastic rip are also part of this world and do not quality for a return/replacement. If the damage is severe please contact us and we can work with you.
If your return is brand new unopened product in the same condition as purchased it can be returned for store credit. If you purchased online you can pay to have it shipped back we can give you store credit.
