{"product_id":"wire-chairs-missing-vinyl","title":"Wire - Chairs Missing (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003eReleased a mere 10 months after the punk blaze of \u003ci\u003ePink Flag, Chairs Missing\u003c\/i\u003e from 1978 proved Wire was more than a smart-arse punk band. The abrasive nature of the earlier release is still evident in many of the tracks, but the input of Mike Thorne's keyboard arrangements adds far more depth and atmospheric layers. Standout cuts are the instant pop single \u003ci\u003eOutdoor Miner \u003c\/i\u003eand the mindless but catchy chant of \u003ci\u003eI Am the Fly.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eChairs Missing\u003c\/i\u003e is full of energy, wit and good songs. \u003ci\u003eChairs Missing\u003c\/i\u003e has been often cited as the evolutionary link between punk and post-punk. In general, the lyrics are darker than those on \u003ci\u003ePink Flag\u003c\/i\u003e, even morbid at times; images of cold, drowning, pain, and suicide haunt the record, and the title itself is a reference to mental instability.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apollo Exos","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46216315109610,"sku":"21760054809610","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/6034\/4810\/files\/WireChairsMissing.webp?v=1787950872","url":"https:\/\/apolloexos.com\/products\/wire-chairs-missing-vinyl","provider":"Apollo Exos","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
