One of the most important British bands of the post-punk era, Wire, has returned with a new album. The record, Red Barked Tree, is the band's 12th in 34 years (which includes a lot of time being broken up). Chicago Tribune critic Greg Kot gives the album 3 out of 4 stars. I haven't heard the record yet, so I can't put my two cents in. However, I do really like Wire, so I figured I'd post this video of them performing "Heartbeat" in 1979 on European television.
The Dark Stuff is an online music magazine and podcast that focuses primarily (though not exclusively) on independent artists that perform in Omaha, Nebraska and the Midwest.
