More of promising to play the song on tour and then not playing it. Comfort comes was supposed to be played last tour but never made the set list.

It's also their best album in terms of how good James' voice sounds. I think the only album they have that sounds 90's from that era is EMG. I'm really excited about the prospect of a reissue for this album. It's really heartening to hear that there is a lot of unheard/unseen content coming our way too. 2018 is going to be a good year to be a Manics fan! |
When The Everlasting came out I recall a number of critics cringing at the refugees verse, comparing it to Phil Collins among others. It didn’t overly bother me like so many of their lyrics since have managed to do.
I wonder if time and circumstance will now show it in a different light? It probably fits in with the current political climate more than anything on the new album, even if by chance. |
I did play it all the way through yesterday but it starts skipping on My Little Empire.
But despite having to turn the volume up which equals a need for a huge remaster I was reminded what a great album it is. It doesn't sound like anything they did before and even since. Lifeblood included. James does his best singing agreed. I want them to make new stuff, but a TIMTTMY20 would be another sale. Going to have to clean desk to accommodate. Hope you've started listening to it more recently as well. |

Got to take Wire with a pinch of salt, can be quite the salesman. I'd love for him not to be talking shite but can't say with any real confidence that he isn't. Would love to see Prologue live. If the pattern's owt like recent years, they should chuck a couple of Truth rarities in the tour then hopefully a few dedicated dates at the end of the year. I'd absolutely love to see the album in full. I know they've said about not wanting to be a heritage band, but really this'll be the last anniversary there'll be a commercial demand for. Alright, us lot would go to a Know Your Enemy gig but we're not enough for it to be worthwhile.

In terms of rarities, there's a good chance of Black Dog acoustically. Would love to see Nobody Loved You. And maybe some other b-sides. Socialist Serenade? |

Frankly, you don't want to see the whole album played because you don't like the lyrics of ONE song?

I've always taken Nicky's interviews with a pinch of salt, and the "we might never make another album" quote three weeks before the next album announcement is the most absurd misdirection to date, but the fact that he's actually acknowledged Lifeblood in a positive light makes me really happy. |
