Today I read an interview with Wire excusing himself from standing for anything these days. Legacy not so much pissed up the wall as a dry stain on the pavement at this point.

Suggesting that this is somehow going to piss away their legacy is a bit of a exaggeration - they don't have to do anything, one mediocre album late into their career won't ruin much.
With that said, Wire's Quietus interview was unsurprisingly frustrating, the suggestion that Jeremy Corbyn was an 'old school communist' was embarrassing - as that's the sort of shit you hear from the cashed up Noel Gallaghers of this world. Disheartening to say the least.
