Best of the later Manics album

My top latter day Manics tracks from KYE to present day era. Think I got something off every album.

Found that soul
Freedom of speech
A song for departure
Love of Richard Nixon
Send away the tigers
Peeled apples
Jackie Collins
Marlon JD
Some kind of nothingness
This sullen welsh heart
30 year war
The next jet to leave Moscow
Hold me like a heaven

So Why So Sad
Intravenous Agnostic
There By The Grace Of God
Empty Souls
A Song For Departure
Leviathan (Yeah we all want one- sorry, back to list!)
Your Love Alone Is Not Enough
Imperial Bodybags
Journal For Plague Lovers
Golden Platitudes
30 Year War
Walk Me To The Bridge
International Blue

Would have included much more, was going to do single, album track and b-side but that took me over the 13 song limit.

Honorable mentions: autumn song, this joke sport severed, journal for plague lovers, Golden platitudes (almost a classic, think maybe the production ruins it), Divine Youth, International Blue, Distant Colours, Song for the sadness.

By 'later' albums, you mean an era spanning two thirds of their entire career?

It used to mean anything TIMT onwards, though now I'd imagine there would be another 'post-modern' period that is PFAYM onwards?

Isn't it easiest to split them into an early/mid/late based on decade?

Early - GT/GATS/THB/EMG/TIMTTMY
Mid - KYE/LB/SATT/JFPL
Late - PFAYM/RTF/F/RIF

(Although I'd possibly argue TIMTTMY should go into the mid career section)

I'd split it:
Richey era: GT/GATS/THB
Commercial rise and fall (aka Farrow design era): EMG/TIMT/KYE/L
'Re-energised' / revisiting older sounds: SATT/JFPL/PFAYM
New territories: RTF/F/RIF

Agree on the first two eras, but consider SATT and all that followed to be one era rather than two. That said, there are very different albums within those different eras. For example, GT going into Theme from MASH and GATS fit quite well together, but then THB is completely different. Similar with EMG and TMIT, but then a very different sound in parts of KYE. SATT and PFAYM fit quite well together in terms of sound, but JFPL in between them is a different sounding record altogether.
