There'll probably never be a single again unless they fancy another top 54 'hit'

I hope there will be more Manics singles. Would be a shame if there were to be no more!

2 years!..it's a long time to wait.

I think their lack of success can be explained by the manics producing solid and great sounding tracks but not absolute classics like ADFL and IYTT.

As one reviewer of KYE said..
"When the manics push the boat out musically it rarely sinks"

They haven't pushed the boat out musically in a long time unfortunately

Still..I live in hope that they may come up with something amazing again some day..

Will probably get to hear *something* new in 2013. I've heard rumblings of a track entitled "Running Away With Fantasy" which the band are quite proud of. I can imagine this being a downloadable one-off release. Personally, the new album will most likely be of a similar vein to Postcards or SATT. I can't imagine the band have the ideas or the energy now to bother recording 70 songs for a single release. They can barely muster up the energy and enthusiasm to release 10 amazing songs for a single album.

Puts Miles Davis on at a reasonable volume.

They did in 2009! And in moments since. Ignore Gutless's trolling, there hasn't just been iffy stuff released in the last few years.

He's always one I've meant to get around to hearing. And Cannonball Adderley. Have you heard anything by him?
(well seeing as the Manics won't be releasing stuff for a few years, we may as well turn this thread into Jazz chat!)

I'd imagine it'll be similar in style to Know Your Enemy.
