Whore: A Tribute to Wire



As far as tribute albums go, this one sets the standard. Whore takes on a life of its own, while never forgetting its heritage. I've had this album in my collection for going on fifteen years, and it never ceases to amaze; just like the originals.

A 1990's menagerie of seminal bands including Bark Psychosis, My Bloody Valentine, Fudge Tunnel, Godflesh, Lush, Band of Susans, and one of the godfathers of Post-Punk, Mike Watt.

consummate strangeness
