More abrasive but perhaps not quite as energetic as Read and Burn 01. I can definitely see the logic in separating the two records, they have their own very distinctive personalities that kind of clash with each other but which are both well worth exploring.

Battery acid leaking from your portable cancer device and eating a hole into your all points khaki straight jacket.

Wickedly heavy with hints of Pink Flag, Chairs and 154 poking their art damaged heads through. Trash/Treasure ranks among Wires greatest sonic achievements.

Fast, relentless, abrasive, amazing. Wilder than Read and Burn 01 and a definite must-have.

Not quite as aggressive as Read & Burn I, Read & Burn II has its own abrasive style. But more drawn-out and hypnotic. "Nice Streets Above" (especially the crunching vocal effects) is pleasingly, um, agitating. Like most good Wire songs.
There are plenty of other aural flourishes, but you should check this out with your own ears. At least once.
