2nd single

Surely it's got to be Some Kind of Nothingness but with the Manics they always seem to pick the wrong singles.

I think so, too. It's a great tune.
Why do you think they choose wrong singles? For example, after hearing the new album, I think It's not war was the right choice.

Some Kind Of Nothingness if they can lock Nicky away in a cupboard so that The Future Is Forever (or whatever it's called) isn't released instead!

They should be ballsy and make either ABBFTS or AWMIE a single.

So why so sad (Found that soul should have been the lead single)
The love of richard nixon (1985 would have been my choice)
Let Robeson sing (Intravenous agnostic would have been a great 4th single)

All bad singles in my opinion for what it's worth

I'm sticking with SKON for the next single. It does have that November/December feel to it.
In an earlier interview the band said they've got everything planned until March, so that's me wrong with thinking we'd get four singles then...

I reckon they'll defo go for SKON as a single, but also one or both of the mediocre Descent and PFAYM. Gotta be GP for me; that would sound great on radio 2.

Anyone remember the campaign to get Intravenous Agnostic released as single on the old official forum?

I really like So why so sad. So it's OK for me.
But for those other two choices you're right. Damn, especially about 1985. It should have been the first single.

If they are serious about 'Mass Communication', It will be Some Kind Of Nothingness. Hopefully they will go for that, it's a great track and would get a lot of airplay.

I'm hoping Auto Intoxication will be single number 3.

What is it with SKON! It's a good album track, but definitely not a single!

ABBFTS!

Or else...
