That's a fairly low bar. Should be managable.

That's an appalling idea for the album title!

It's hard to come up with a name for a record without knowing the general mood and feel of it really. My own, massively tongue in cheek, offering is, 'Ditties for the Dispossessed' - cheesy as fuck but has a ring to it, you've got to admit

'Lifeblood II - The Album Bearing No Relation To Lifeblood'

hmmm well done NME..that looks like a mash up of about 3 different interviews. I like that they've put the JFPL (i think) track by track video underneath it. Wouldn't mind watching that again.

It's going to be a title that at first sounds odd but after 6 months to a year of talking about, sounds normal.

The Manics have never had a good album title. Discuss.

Blasphemy! The Holy Bible is the greatest album title ever and This Is My Truth etc is a great title too - just a shame about most of the actual songs on that album.

It just gets shortened to This is My Truth so should've just called it that. As for the holy bible I know i it was *shock horror* at the time but *meh*

That actually is very true. I just think they loved the fact that the radio djs and general public had so many words to wrap their kissers around whilst talking about the album and lead single. I can see where they were coming from with that, the rascals.

I just shorten it further and call it 'Th-', which is a title they later mentioned in a certain track on SATT if memory serves me correctly.

Anyway, I still think Nicky said the perfect title without realising it the other day on the radio, One Year Closer To Death, it's a winner!

I'll give you Lifeblood... always hated everything about the presentation of GT though.
