Anyway... some of the manic's best stuff is found in the b-sides but i agree a lot on here is quite conventional and missing better b-side material (IMHO). Like umm...

Starlover
Soul contamination
A vision of dead desire
Dead yankee drawl
Never want again
Hibernation
Are mothers saints
Too cold here
Love torn us under
Masking tape
Locust valley
Blackholes for the young
Buildings for dead people

Why not put ballad of the bangkok novotel on there if you really want to alienate the casual listener because i think something like this should appeal more to manics fans but the tracklisting doesn't quite achieve it.

Am i remembering this right that there was an online vote for the tracklisting on the official site? In my hazy memory too cold here came out on top but they didn't include it because the band hate the song.
So much good stuff left on the cutting room floor. Which would probably fill another disc... if they hadn't filled it with covers!
