I prefer Decline & Fall to Bodies Dancing by The Smile as well.
All these accusations of Manics phoning it in, yet that's what every other band release mentioned in this thread sounds like to me! |

well ok then that definitely makes the manics sounding pompously complacent ok then. |

Never meant From Out Of Nowhere. Forgot that had been mentioned due to my focusing on current lead singles from other bands in 2024. Nothing can touch Faith No More. But nobody then knew what that band had. A different thread yeah, but I'm heartbroken about Perry Farrell and their reunion antics. Makes it more amazing Manics still going! |

In my opinion the band aren't really thinking of phoning it in, maybe it's just the critics who are. Richey and Nicky wrote Motorcycle Emptiness at university about alienation, despair and from Patrick Jones Neon loneliness poem. James didn't think about phoning the lyrics with an Abba song, as the video in Japan shows. I also think JDB still has enthusiasm at concerts and festivals, his voice is still great and he talks to the crowd in between songs.

Balance
I don't think Decline & Fall is as good as Bubblegum Dog by MGMT this year. |
