Well it's not a new thing for them to be inspired by others, they still have their own sound and TUVL, RIF, F are distinct. I play more of some tracks than others, but I dont see a problem in the experimentation, though I guess they're not going to please everyone. Maybe other bands who are influenced by the Manics would they be ok to cover songs they're inspired by, or write a solo album with inspiration for Victor Jara, in between a studio album or actually write for other genres, rather than just be established to stay the same as they are known.
