Who's got the new record, Rewind the Film, then? It's been getting some brilliant reviews.I can't really spare the tenner until the weekend but, given my commitment to picking it up, might just find myself a way to give it a listen this evening
It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.
Did anybody go to the gig at the Manchester Ritz on Friday? Just wondering what the set list was like, I know that they will be promoting their new album and playing new material, but it would be a shame if they ditched too many of the classics.
I take it that you went to the Maida Vale gig? I'm not sure when their next gig is to be honest.
They've announced a new tour and new album,Honestly they are so underated; the sheer volume of material they have put out and each album bar (Lifeblood and Know Your Enemy have been 9/10 or 10/10 albums)PhenominalGutted that neither the Leicester or Wolverhampton gigs fall on a Friday or Saturday Leeds, First Direct Arena (March 28)Cardiff, Motorpoint Arena (29) Leicester, De Montfort Hall (31)Manchester, O2 Apollo (April 1) Edinburgh, Corn Exchange (3)Glasgow, Barrowland (4)Wolverhampton, Civic Hall (6)Bournemouth, O2 Academy (Brighton, Brighton Centre (9) London, O2 Academy Brixton (11)Read more at http://www.nme.com/news/manic-street-preachers/73770#djfWildim4eWhUoT.99
This is the second new album so to speak right, the heavier one they promised?I cannot wait. Saw them a month ago touring 'Rewind The Film' and they sounded as good as any time I've ever seen them.
Great band, shame they aren't bigger than what they are. I have heard a little from their new album and don't think its good at all, think they lost their way a bit the past 2 records. Everything since Send Away The Tigers..Anyway James is brilliant guitarist and vocalist.
Anyone know the story behind the black mask from Top of the pops - FAster?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iBVIqJo1NU
Ever heard of torrents mate? Rewind the Film is brilliant.
Usually I would...but there's something enjoyable about making the effort to go out and pick up something you've really been looking forward to!
Still buzzing from the Manchester gig last night! I mean, James Dean Bradfield - what a talent! astonishing performance, I love the bones of the man.
Saw them in Leeds last week and they've certainly still got it. I can't get over the broad mix of crowd they still attract, it's bizarre, there was certainly a few confused faces during Archives Of Pain!
Europa Geht Durch Mich feat. Nina Hoss:Futurology is going to be f****** brilliant. Can't wait.
Manic Street Preachers’ new album is ‘polar opposite’ of Rewind The FilmRead more: http://www.live4ever.uk.com/2014/06/manic-street-preachers-new-album-is-polar-opposite-of-rewind-the-film/#ixzz352CTHaVUNicky Wire believes Manic Street Preachers fans will discover an album that is the ‘polar opposite’ of last year’s ‘Rewind The Film‘ when they get their hands on ‘Futurology‘ next month.“It’s quite an optimistic record for us actually, full of life and vitality,” Wire tells XFM. “‘Rewind The Film’ was very much the polar opposite, the tender acoustic intimate mid-life crisis album, but this album just feels brimming with ideas and vitality.” “We kind of did them together, it’s a very schizophrenic experience but then we’re very schizophrenic people,” he continues of the two LPs. “We recorded so many tracks over the last two years it felt pretty obvious they didn’t fit together so it’s kind of both sides of out psyche.” The Manics will be at Glastonbury next week; they play the festival’s Other Stage on the Saturday immediately before Pixies and headliner Jake Bugg.Read more: http://www.live4ever.uk.com/2014/06/manic-street-preachers-new-album-is-polar-opposite-of-rewind-the-film/#ixzz352CMkBii
