One of XTC's earlier releases, "Making Plans for Nigel" was one of their first original songs that gained them attention within the English new wave scene of the late '70s. Coming from Swindon, England, Andy Partridge and Colin Moulding formed the group in the early '70s and kept on releasing material up until 2005. Although there won't likely be any new releases from the group, they did have a good long run and they left a vast catalog of great songs.
