Is it really that hard to believe? Lots of people don't like the last few albums. people have different tastes. I know people who only like the first two albums, and hate anything THB-onwards. It's quite patronising to say that you honestly can't seriously believe that someone doesn't like three albums. He doesn't like them, you do, Deal with it. Personaly I agree with him apart from JFPL which I love.

So intrigued by that book... Glad to know there'll be something to keep us waiting when they take their break.

Great, another thing Manics fans can waste all their money on.
Fuck them for releasing things and doing stuff!

How anyone can not like ALL of the Manics records is beyond me!

Agreed, everyone's entitled to their opinion. You can't lay into someone just because their taste differs from yours.

Still love you though Gutless x

Oh ok, thanks! I guessed that!

So, do you reckon it'll be a limited edition expensive book like FD, or a commericially available book?
