The greatest band never heard on the radio

[lokrume04]

That isn't really 100% true. I have actually heard XTC on Swedish radio three times in the last 25 years.

Dave Gregory is incredible

[TheRiverbankStudio]

Great guitars, great groove! One of the best stuffs of the eighties!

Amazing solo by Dave Gregory! XTC are one of the best bands in the whole world!!!!!

I love 98% of every XTC song post 1980. AND like about 20% of XTC's music pre 80. David Gregory was a great addition. If only Andrew, Coulin and David would reunite. WE MISS YOU XTC!!!!!!

@lokrume04 They get a lot of airplay on "1st Wave" on Sirius XM Radio Airplay here in the ole U.S. of A.

I'm not sure if I love or hate Dave Gregory. He's one of those very few who never make the slightest mistake. Listen to his little solo here. It's just not fair.

Best live band of 1978-1980+ and boy, did I see some bands

[Starclimber]

Documented down like rats they're catching up on every squeal. Annoyingly, I had this song running through my head non-stop for HOURS as I failed to sleep one night last week prior to racing the bike leg of a Half-Iron triathlon relay. I was, in fact, documented down like a rat the very next morning. Frustratingly, I shared this with friends, none of whom could appreciate the reference to this brilliant song.

[TheNakedRaygun]

XTC was amazing....
