Cultural Facts:
- Recording Story: Wire had existed for barely a year when producer Mike Thorne brought them into London’s Advision Studios, where the band turned 21 short, sharply arranged songs into one of punk’s most distinctive debut albums.
- Band Philosophy: The group rehearsed for extremely long stretches and deliberately stripped away solos, ornamentation, and conventional rock showmanship, creating the abrupt stops, tiny songs, and minimalist arrangements that became their trademark.
- Unexpected Legacy: Elastica’s 1990s hit “Connection” borrowed so heavily from Pink Flag track “Three Girl Rhumba” that Wire’s publishers pursued the similarity and the dispute was ultimately settled out of court.

This place is a little tucked away but easy to find. Though it’s not a big shop, it has a great selection of records at great prices! The guy who helped me out at the counter was friendly and really helpful! If I were in the area again, I would definitely go back.

Power plant records is the best! Great selection of vinyl, the owner and staff are super cool and one of the best things about them are the local shows they put on at Stuft Pizza to support local punk bands like Repeater and Simulator (aka Current Location).
