Lifeblood reissue announced

[Vancouver]

Somewhat on topic....can anyone share a nice flowing playlist of the Lifeblood B-sides?

Just the main 12 from the singles and the Japanese release. I recently had to rebuild my playlist and can't remember what it was before...and what I got ain't flowing well lol

I can almost 100% guarantee that the b sides will NOT be remixed. They didnt even remix the b sides for the KYE reissue.

I recall the version of Everything Will Be performed at IOW being good as well.

I always remember the IoW version of Empty Souls being fantastic, the pounding keyboard sound really driving it along.

Saw them play Everything Will Be at Glastonbury in 2003, it was far better than the recorded version turned out to be. One that got a bit lost in the mix.

And official website still being a bastard to load up quickly if at all!
So any guesses for announcements? We know it's coming. The outer Manics casuals (or people who have fucked off from FD) don't.

When they updated the cover photos for KYE Rosebud was released on the Friday of the same week and the album was out two months later....

AKA don't hold your breath, it's a marketing teaser, it'll happen when it happens. Maybe with a new track like KYE, but.. maybe not. It's a bit like the GATS re-issue.

But bro * takes a giant hit of copium from the copium bong * they did end up remixing a b-side -- Groundhog Days...

In other news, the IOW Empty Souls is incredible I like the album version too, both are great.

Well lets see what we get in terms of demos and outtakes...

I've calmed down now, so removed this comment.

Good but a little dissappointing that now There By the Grace of God b-sides, God Save the Manics and Leviathon have effectively been orphaned. Would have preferred these over the remixes which I'll listen to once and never again.

Says it’s not available in the UK Apple Music. Is anyone able to post a screenshot of the track listing?
