Wire: Adapt (Single, 2011)

En tiempos en los que parece que las grandes bandas cada vez tienen un hueco algo menor en los gustos de los consumidores musicales, acaso por la inmediatez con que devoramos hoy en día casi cualquier producto fonográfico, Wire continúan dando ejemplos de que ésto es un gran error, y nos convencen con temas como este Adapt de que los grandes temas siempre seguirán estando ahí. Y las grandes canciones, porque Adapt es una gran canción. Un perfecto tema de atmósfera Shoegaze que Wire quieren compartir con todo el mundo y que sirva como tarjeta de presentación de su nuevo álbum: Red Barked Tree (2011), a la venta desde el 11 de Enero.

Wire – Adapt (Single, 2011)

“You heard the news? Apparently rock music is dead. Seems strange to fling guitars off the side of the boat we’re all floating along in while Wire are still making records. Maybe if Glee had revived “Dot Dash” or “Outdoor Miner” instead of that Journey song the figures would read differently, but then Wire have never been ones to hoist the flag for all the bravado and fireworks of R&R blowouts, and “Adapt” should perhaps be seen as half lament, half instructional: a message from Darwin the London band have been trying to transmit to revivalist dullards for decades now. Wherever your genre loyalties lie, “Adapt” is a great song, a drift of liquid guitars and wan vocals that’ll send you on your way with a weird, nervous optimism in the pit of your gut. Wire’s new album Red Barked Tree came out today” (artrocker.com)
