Manic Street Preachers
Reviews
Manic Street Preachers: Journal for Plague LoversThe Welsh three-piece go back to their former band-mate’s lyric book and set it to music –- and reinvigorate themselves in the process. [18 May 2009] 
Manic Street Preachers: Send Away the TigersWith Send Away the Tigers, the Welsh rockers regain their '90s glory. [23 July 2007] 
Manic Street Preachers: The Holy Bible—10th Anniversary EditionIt remains a galling, cankerous reminder of the painful and profound issues that the majority of pop music has always been designed to mask. If the album seems strained in places, overwrought in others and unimaginably grim throughout, it is still -- despite these flaws -- a vital and demanding work. [20 May 2005] 
The Manic Street Preachers: LifebloodWhile far from a smashing return to form on par with Everything Must Go (their career high-water mark), Lifeblood should reassure the public that the Manics are not yet artistically bankrupt. [12 November 2004]
Manic Street Preachers: Know Your EnemyDoes the group once famously dubbed the most important British band of the ‘90s have anything left for us to listen to in this new millennium? [24 April 2001]
Manic Street Preachers: This is My Truth Tell Me YoursWeathering the disappearance of original primary lyricist Richey Edwards, the band has not only thrived, but also grown in new directions. [18 October 2000]Blogs |
