So that's why yer man sings like it's a different language. To hide the lyrics. I could never understand what he was saying, but I quite liked that about his style.

2 by mine. Would you like a fight?

We'll settle this on the 19th.

 

[Doctor Muscles]

I don't know what that means and it's making me angry. Fightin' angry.

You're getting an extra dig for exposing my ignorance

 

[CinnamonBoy]

I've never been to a Thumped Christmas Party. Has planned or ad hoc music-related violence ever broken out before?

 

[Doctor Muscles]

I'm not going. You're supposed to visualise the digs.

i'm pretty curious about the next album, when bradfilef is good at making music he's really good. i'm prepared for dissapointment though

MSP are one band I'd consider making my own album by. By choosing individual songs at the iTunes Store.

"While reviews were mixed - the band's limited musical ability and reliance on aggressive posturing alienated many - Generation Terrorists sold over 250,000 copies and established the Manic Street Preachers as Britain's new indie rock hope."


Limited musical ability? Fucking hell. Didn't seem that limited to me when I was trying to learn the guitar solos all those years ago.
The solo from Crucifix Kiss is one of my all time faves. Doubt I'll ever be good enough to play it too.

JDB is a good solid player. Nicky Wire is up there with Adam Clayton as far as bass players go.

From 2000AD, Prog 276

 

[Moods For Mallards]

Whatever about their merits as a band, I hope I can someday produce quotes like this:
"He gave me a Daily Telegraph and a Mars bar, two things I liked - the sports section of the Telegraph is still the best."

 

[Lili Marlene]

it would be nice if they made a decent album again

 

[Oggy Pip]

Manic Street Preachers - great tunes but the worst lyrics of any popular group. Really dreadful Junior Cert english stuff. It's not a pamphlet Bradfield, it's a song.

I once had a dream where Cilla Blacks 'Surprise Surprise' reunited the boys with Edwards. It was awkward for all concerned. I woke up laughing.

 

[Jill Hives]

Manic Street Preachers = a band I just don't get.

Manic Street Preachers = a band I just don't get.

The whole of America don't get them...that's the joke..
