A must for any underground music fan, The Wire reports on alternative, underground and non-mainstream music, ‘waging war on the mundane and the mediocre.’
On the cover of this August 2025 issue, it’s experimental guitarist and label owner Bill Orcutt, who chats to Tony Rettman about his career from a Muddy Waters inspired launch, over his four-stringed guitar origin, to his band Watt and more.
Plus, the likes of Adam Wiltzie, Larry Stabbins, The Sabres Of Paradise, Pharao Overlord, Youth Code, Nourished By Time, Fredrik Rasten and more. Additionally, find the triannually included ‘The Wire Tapper 68’ CD attached to the front cover.
