XTC – Drums And Wires (Vinyl)
If you already are a fan, then be prepared to fall in love with Drums and Wires all over again because this remastered version sounds fantastic.
Released in 1979, this was the album which put Swindon, England’s XTC on the global music map and set the stage for their ascension to the upper echelons of respected British rock royalty. The thing many of us didn’t realize at the time was that this album was also the proving ground for a new sound that would become pretty much ubiquitous in the first half of the 1980s.
True to the album’s title, the overarching sonic palate for Drums and Wires is all about a really big drum sound and super-punchy guitars.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
SHIPPING
Flying Nun offers free shipping in Aotearoa New Zealand on orders over $80. We have record stores in both Auckland and Wellington and will ship your record from whichever store is nearest. We aim to pack send your order next business day. Pick ups are also available from both stores.
