Wasp Star was my first XTC album. I know people generally dont regard it as the best XTC album, but its my favorite. Oh, really You came in the out door. Tell me a bit about how 1999s Apple Venus Volume One differs from Wasp Star. That came out on your own label via Cooking Vinyl, finally. I really wanted to work with an orchestra and thats an expensive fancy. XTC ended their recording career on a high note with 2000's Wasp Star: Apple Venus Volume 2. It had been a tumultuous 23 years of recording, with ongoing problems with their record company. Also, Andy Partridge had his breakdown in 1982, which ended their touring. Through it all, they released great albums-each one very distinct from the next. All bands must adapt and change as time passes, and XTC was almost unrecognizable with this album. Wasp Star is not a wow album. Now that the negative stuff is out of the way, let me say that I still really like this album. Compared to what many other groups are putting out today, this stuff is pure genius. It is the second volume of the Apple Venus set and reached the UK Top 40 albums chart. At this point, guitarist and singer Andy Partridge and bassist and singer Colin Moulding were the only two band members left. The duo therefore utilised session musicians on every track to fill in the musical elements that they were incapable of performing themselves. Wasp Star Apple Venus Volume 2 is the fourteenth and final studio album by the English band XTC, released on Cooking VinylIdea Records on 23 May 2000. Anyone expecting Wasp Star: Apple Venus, Vol. 2 to continue the majestic acoustic-orchestral blends of Apple Venus will be disappointed, because it's a straightforward collection of sharp, witty, well-constructed pop songs. Directness is perhaps the oddest thing about Wasp Star - it's unassuming pop from a band that operated on a conceptual plain for nearly 20 years. It could be argued that all the songs that fit a dark, introspective mood went to Apple Venus, XTC's first album after seven years in exile, while Wasp Star wound up as a clearinghouse for everything else.
