Default Manic Street Preachers

I have the Holy Bible, Gold Against the Soul, Everything Must Go and Generation Terrorists. Their music is pretty awful nowadays but back when they had Richey they were solid. I like the Holy Bible best but Generation Terrorists is pretty close to it. Everything Must Go has some good songs, I mainly keep that album just for those songs

Small Black Flowers That Grow In The Sky is beautiful. My favorite song is probably 4st 7lb other favorites are Roses in the Hospital, From Despair to Where, Die in the Summertime, Small Black Flowers That Grow in the Sky and the ones below.

Recommendations:
Faster
4st 7lb

I saw this band support INXS on their first UK tour.
They stole the show.

Not bad for a bunch of Taffy's.

Disclaimer: My mate dragged me along to that gig...he just got back from Oz at the time. *is not a INXS fan*

As you long as you just stick with what you got you will be fine. The Holy Bible is an increbible album.

The rest of their stuffs a pile of sh*t. In their early days they were trying to be the Heartbreakers with a political conscience and in their latter days they just started to make dull music. The last album was music to yawn at as afar as I was concerned.

I don't like any of the songs on their myspace, they're all rather dull and I'm Just A Patsy sounds like a song for a car commercial.

Holy Bible was the pinnacle. The last album with Richey, if you think they are rather dull that album will change your mind.

I've taken the trouble to create a graph as a quick guide to the Manic Street Preachers

Thumbs up Manic Street Preachers

Yeah Yeah I love Manic Street Preachers.

Their new album rocks even though the two previous
ones wern't my favorite. I really think they proved themselves
again in this album by successfully coming back with great
songs and good instrumentation. Love it

any MSP fans out there?
