Gotobed left the band in 1990, after the release of the album Manscape . After his departure, the band dropped one letter from its name, becoming “Wir” (still pronounced “wire”), and released The First Letter in 1991. There followed a further period of solo recordings, during which Newman founded the swim ~ label, and later Githead with his wife (ex- Minimal Compact bassist Malka Spigel ), while Wire remained an occasional collaboration. It was not until 1999 that Wire again became a full-time entity.
