I really wanted to listen them since time ago, but didn't knew where to start.. (just had listened tsunami time ago).

just listened Lifeblood.

Pretty cool, thanks for the advice Mr. R. :cool4:

 

which other albums do you advice me to listen of them? :nice:

Dam Everything must go is already one of my favorate albums ever.

 

only album i've heard tho, so I've ordered 'this is my truth'

Everyone in this thread should own/listen to 'The Holy Bible'. Richey was (or is??) an amazing lyricist.

I never bought the last album they did, any good?

Send away the tigers is a good album, I would suggest getting it Charlie.

I have heard some tracks from it and I did like them, but I am definitely more a fan of their older stuff. :) However, I will check out Send Away The Tigers, just as it's Manics!

For someone who has never bought a Manics CD, what is the best starter to get?

Send Away The Tigers / Everything Must Go.

I have their album lifeblood. It's really good.

they're on my list to get into. any good?

Ive been wondering the same thing... Ive never heard them before and wanted to know if they were like any other bands I might have heard before...

richey edwards whas been walked out as dead eh? anyone knows anything?

 

 

Edit: nvm,I found the info

his family have confirmed his status as 'presumed dead'

 

The man loved his family and his band, he wouldn't just dissapear.

 

I do think his death may have been accidental, he always said he never contemplated suicide.

Hm thats pretty strange to me

Hm thats pretty trange to me

 

You and everyone else who followed their music.

dam the holy bible is something very special.

 

So angry, so grim, so final.

 

Capital punishment, Abortion, Racism, Anorexia and the Holocaust... not found on most albums.

I have their latest album and like it. I'll have to chekc out their other stuff at some point.

Have been enjoying reading this thread so I hope you don't mind if I bump it! Good to hear that there are lots of people checking out their different records. I love all their albums so recommend them all! Their B-sides are absolute gems as well!

lol the intrest here is minimal at best.

 

More people need to sit down and listen to them really.

 

 

So you think This is my truth is their best album then?

 

I'm more inclined to Everything must go or Generation terrorists

I discovered them with This Is My Truth so it will always have a special place in my heart. I love them all though! Noticed on a lot of forums people calling them boring/bland etc, especially the newer stuff and that is so not true! Anyone who has't checked them out yet please do! You won't regret it!

I've only got the albums that were considered classics so far (ie the Holy Bible, Generation Terrorists, Everything must go and This is my truth. Their all outstanding in different ways. Perhaps morso than some Coldplay albums. I think the problem people have with them is the same with U2 and such, people don't like politics and music to collapse.

Yeah, could be! Never really thought about that!

News now up on the official site. Release date for new album around May, hopefully won't have to wait too long for a proper date. Also, have a great day today Mr James Dean Bradfield now that you are the sexiest 40 year old on the planet! :D

Manics are playing T In The Park, headlining alongside Glasvegas on the King Tut Stage. They must have decided to lift that ban on them then for Nicky swearing the last time they headlined!

Why do so many idiots on this site not care!

Not care about what Stephen?

 

The new album sounds interesting

Well Justin we will have to wait and see if the new album is going to be awesome ;)
