I hadn't actually thought about this until now (perhaps because I've given up buying these reissues) but that's a wise choice. There are a plethora of b-sides that I always thought would suit the album or that I hold up as stronger than some of the album tracks, but there's no reason to change the tracklist at all, it flows well and it's the piece of work they intended in that moment.

Related note but I was pleasantly surprised to see The Soulmates get some attention, I've always loved that song.

Manic Street Preachers remix of Steve Wilson track branded "misguided" shock!

I haven't heard their remix or the original song. But why is it misguided?
You're stifling their creativity!

Can't help but think this artist had somewhere else to be, by the time he got to Sean.

But finally someone has accurately depicted how Richey had one eye that was much higher up his face than the other one.

I like that painting, it's good and must be hard to do. Nice to see some Manics love! I have that same image on my bedroom that an ex-girlfriend drew for me in pencil as a present in maybe 2005/06? Would upload a photo but can't seem to do it, only see internet links.

Oh please, please don't tempt me with such ridiculous ideas as going for Japan for a festival.
