Friday, March 14, 2025: Holy Wire - Worse For Wear


The 80s are forever.   Or so it seems.

I'm a child of the 80s, I graduated High School in 1986.  "I was there, man..." I say, as I take a weary drag from my half-ashed cigarette and look of into the distance with that thousand yard stare that you mostly find with soldiers and ER nurses.

I have no idea if  Alain Paradis (AKA Holy Wire) was there or not.  He looks like he might have caught the tail end of the 80s, but I don't think he was there, there.  Dig?

Which makes Holy Wire even more lovely, because it FEELS like it came out of there.  I can hear L.A.'s own KROQ fitting in Holy Wire right inbetween super song sets of The Buggles, Flock of Seagulls, and Depeche Mode.

And I'm here for it.
