I'd like to see New Art Riot re enter setlists. They played it at the Japanese National Treasures gigs and sounds pretty good!

Little Baby Nothing is possibly the worst-produced Manics song ever.

I've never liked the production on Generation Terrorists. Weak and tinny and makes all the songs sound almost indistinguishable.

I realise that was the fashion when it was recorded but production-wise it really hasn't stood the test of time.

There is some vocal feedback in that track that's always bothered me. One thing I secretly hoped for was some sort of new remix with the problem rectified.

I met Caitlin Moran last night and asked her about the Manics! She was talking about how Richey was a big inspiration. She mentioned seeing them live around that time and saying they were unbelievably good, we also talked about the Top of the Pops/balaclava thing. I asked what her favourite song was and (perhaps obviously) it's Faster!

Will somebody please buy this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Manic-Stre...item3395cd62f8

It's been coming up on my eBay searches for years and it's just silly.

I mean it can't hurt can it? In my experience, if I stream something and I really like it I end up buying it.

Would be interested to see overall sales of that, spread over last 19 years, wouldn't be surprised if it sold more in first 5 years than following 14 years with sales decline and whatnot. That's a point, do anniversary editions etc get included in sales for the album or does industry count Holy Bible, Holy Bible 10 and Holy Bible 20 as separate albums?

Thinking there probably will be an Everything Must Go 20, maybe they can finally put the whole Nynex gig together for it.
