Who else is bored with the Manics?

If you are not bored with the Manics then this thread doesnt require your posts.

I am bored with the Manics.

I am bored with the interviews
The kindas and the you knows
I am bored with the songs I've heard
They are bland and forgettable
I am bored with the trawls through the back catalogue
I've heard it all before
I am bored with the various editions of Postcards
They all have the same songs on them which cost nothing on the net anyway
I am bored with Wire's tweets
Woah - connecting with the fanbase!
I am bored with the defending of them on here
The songs are worse than SATT
I am bored with the Manics
They will not care

I agree with a couple of you're points, but i think you should have held off on the manics hate. At least until the album comes out.

It's disappointing seeing them slip back into commerical mode. But they gave us a wonderful album only last year. We can't forget that.

EDIT: What i am bored of is the hyping up of the new stuff, as it does to me sound awfully bland to me. That's only after hearing the live versions from a bad gig and the new single. I will reserve ultimate judgement until the album comes out. I've not actully listened to the free download song yet either. But that's just my own opinion. And i am not in the business of venting my views on what i don't like about the band, too often. Manics fans are the best fans in the world and i don't like to annoy them too much

bored with the interviews is hardly fair..i can understand they get boring if you listen to all of them but the fact that they get asked the same questions isnt their fault

wire's tweets no good? well people were complaining they didnt bother with the internet ..now they are..its still not good enough

I can't think, and I can't paint, I can't love!
And no one will, for money makes us up

Death to monetaries!

Thats were youre wrong. I dont hate them and Im guessing that anyone posting on here with whatever opinion doesnt hate them. If we did we would just not come back here.

The Manics have been a huge part of my life for the last 15 years.

The latest album and creative direction has created a feeling amongst the fans. We have every right to express it.

Id say I love the Manics more than most on here.

i wouldn't say "bored" with them, but after listening to JFPL again today, i am really surprised they didn't hold on to that as their "last album", as i do not see how anything will top that.

I am bored with proevpete's attention hog topics.

I am bored with the essays.
The whines and howcouldtheys.
I'm bored with the sentences I've read.
They are boring and ridiculous.
I am bored with the endless posts about how they're not his favourite band anymore.
By now I've read it a billion times.
I am bored with the various topic titles.
The posts contain the exact same thing time from time.
I am bored with the "I CAN HAVE AN OPINION TOO!!!" defenses.
Woah - totally missing the point and stating the obvious!
I am bored of the sense of entitlement.
The posts are worse than SATT.

He is bored with the Manics.
No one gives a shit.
