Very very pleased to know that KYE will get a much deserved re-release. It's still the rawest and freshest of all the albums. I really enjoyed this Cuban period of the band. It's my favourite album. To me it summed up what the Manics really wanted to sound like as a rock/punk band. The album also marks that point where it felt as if it was only real fans that were going to continue supporting this band. Many fans seemed to stop being fans after the release of KEY, well it felt that way in my city at the time.

I really do hope it is a quality re-release. As mentioned by others the Truth re-release was somewhat disappointing. Please no more demos. They just become quick album fillers with little appeal. For a DVD there must be lots of cutting room floor film that could be used perhaps?
