Ha, I dunno... Not hearing anything! Whatever anyway, fucking love the song.

I've loved the last week.
I don't know why, but I've started listening to the Manics loads again and I've started feeling like I did 7 or 8 years ago, when my life practically revolved around them. It's not the same, because I've grown up a lot, but it's as close as I'll ever get to getting that feeling back, and it's made me really happy :). |

What I like about Spectators of Suicide is its strong instrumental focus. I think it's a sound that can easily be adapted to different styles. If I were a musician I'd enjoy trying to cover it. |
:up:
It is really fun to play! |

Going to listen for gremlins in 'The Convalescent'. Is it David Holmes's buzzy synths/feedback? |

So they stopped playing Indian Summer because of Wayne? Pah, the wuss! Let me be their backing guitarist and they can play it live again in a few years! :P

If you got a few of the album tracks Manics have never performed live you'd have a fucking great album.
1) All We Make Is Entertainment 2) Methadone Pretty 3) Symphony Of Tourette 4) So Dead 5) Be Natural 6) The Convalescent 7) Glasnost 8) Fragments 9) Don't Be Evil 10) Gold Against The Soul 11) Auto-Intoxication 12) Condemned To Rock N' Roll Or something... |

So, in random Manics thoughts, a friend and I have just been talking about Nicky's (possible) appearance in Jools
:right: which lead us to imagine Jools boogiewoogieing through I Killed the Zeitgeist with Nicky as a surprise musical performance :right: which lead us to think about Jools becoming Manics' next tour keyboard player. Enjoyed Naysmith's contribution to Masses? Wait till you hear the Joolsified version. |

Can't believe they've never played those songs live. So Dead and Be Natural are the most surprising.
|
A shockingly huge amount of those songs would make one hell of live stormers, lots of epic rocking that just begs to become huge setlist moments + the immensity of Be Natural + Glasnost which always sounded like the perfect outdoors summer festival song to play, with those gorgeous melodies frolicing in the sunshine.
|
At uni, no headphones and its one of those days where I really need the manics. Roll on 4.15 and JDB's voice will be full blast.

So, I'm listening to the US mix of The Holy Bible and it's kind of blowing my mind and stuff.

A comment someone posted in another thread made me want to ask this question -
What are Manics fans from across the pond's thoughts with regards to This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours? Do you feel you are able to connect with the album? (Just thinking with regards to the lyrics being more 'insular' as it were. Hope that makes sense! :lol: |
it's the only album they had any real success with in the US isn't it?

Wasn't Truth not released in the US till '99, because they couldn't find a label for it? Not sure if it made much of an impact when it was released, really.
