XTC is a musically adventurous group from Swindon, UK. Formed in 1975, they first gained recognition as a post-punk new wave band but have since explored various genres including dub, folk-rock, psychedelia and pure pop. The regular line-up consisted of Andy Partridge on guitar and vocals, Colin Moulding on bass and vocals, Barry Andrews on keyboards (left in 1979), Dave Gregory on guitar and keyboards (left in 1999), and Terry Chambers on drums (left in 1983).

Originally emerging from the ashes of The Helium Kidz, XTC has consistently defied categorization throughout their career. Their willingness to experiment with different styles has made them a unique presence in the music industry.

With over three decades of active engagement, XTC's discography showcases their versatility and artistic growth. From their early days as pioneers of the post-punk movement to later ventures into diverse musical territories, XTC's commitment to pushing boundaries has solidified their status as one of the most influential bands from Swindon.

New Wave / Post Punk

Back In Stock

The band's third album from 1979 but first without co-founder Barry Andrews.&nbsp;Drums and Wires&nbsp;was a cavalcade of Andy Partridge's neuroses and paranoia. Although it contained 2 quirky bona fide pop songs - the calling card&nbsp;Making Plans for Nigel&nbsp;and the breezy&nbsp;Life Begins at the Hop. The music is as jagged as Partridge's attitude and a massive influence on the sound of now.
