I hope they'll play The Descent and the title track (besides the obvious first single)

But nothing can beat Peeled Apples last year!


btw. is it only me or is the Manics' twitter a bit boring?

It's a good Twitter, they're regular and they tell us lots of cool stuff. It was good when they drip fed lyrics though that seems to have stopped now.

Wire's upsetting my ocd. I always do it band song rather than song band.

I've never been interested either, plus all the leaks about what they're rehearsing and stuff has probably spoiled potential surprises at the gigs.

Must be just me; I really don't like Some Kind Of Nothingess or Golden Platitudes - I struggle to listen to them. Don't even mention "the future has been blah blah".

Yet I love the rest of the album, especially "I think i've found it" and "hazelton avenue".

has anyone mentioned that you can listen to clips of the demos here?

Is anyone else starting to not give a shit about what Nicky is listening to?

I'd like to hear James' recommendations though
