  “The lyric/text for this song could be read as a series of questions, set in 2017,” the band’s bassist and vocalist, Graham Lewis, said in a statement. “Who could have known the answers would be, in no particular order … Liverpool FC, me, Boris the Spider, 67, Lieutenant Colonel.”

  "The venerable avant-garde rockers expand their visions of devolution into a compact and sometimes even upbeat-sounding journey on their 17th LP" https://bit.ly/2SgRmQf

  “‘Primed and Ready’ was the easiest song to write on the album, written in less time than it takes to play it,” guitarist/singer Colin Newman said. “There’s nothing remotely ‘clever’ about the chord sequence and structure, and there’s only three chords: two in the verse and one in the chorus. As in all things Wire, ‘less is more.'”
