if they could attack their past (and i know this makes me living in some sort of dreamland) in a semi-constructive way it wouldn't be so bad.

i'm prepared to try and belt him one for his comments there, getting a bloody nose off him in return isn't going to scare me. besides, i once got a caning off Dave Gahan's security, i doubt anything Mr Bradfield can throw at me is going to be worse.

I didn't get this in the end.

I see Florence is on the front page of the next one though?......

if they got thumped every time they slagged stuff off then eventually they'd associate it with pain and stop.. like pavlov's dogs

Poor bruised Manics!

And if you buy the mag tomorrow, could you please let me know how many letters NME gets about the Manics feature?
I'm predicting a 50/50 split of pro and anti. Not that I send stuff off to NME.

Wasn't this already known? How they went on hiatus for a few months and did nothing band-related? Thanks for telling us what we know already, NME!

Next headline: "Nicky Wire: 'I love to wear skirts!'"

i wasn't actively aware of it, i think this is the first time any of them had said directly that the band did not exist for a little while?

cheers for the link!

James : "I think we will, as a band, re-investigate ourselves as a concept....which we've done before and came up with 'Lifeblood', so we don't wanna make that mistake again.".

blood be boiling here. i am sick and fucking tired of hearing them slag the album off, but that's too far. a mistake? sorry, but the only mistake you made with the whole album was not releasing 1985 as a single, it being the best thing on it and more representative of the record than The Love Of Richard Nixon and to an extent Empty Souls.

James wants a punch in the face for that comment.

I had to put the mag down once I had read his comments on Lifeblood. If I win the Euro Millions Friday I shall go and descretely by 100,000 copies then of course it would be the best thing since slice bread to them!!

Not sure how you can *discreetly* buy 100,000 copies of something but it sounds like a good plan.

well I would have the resources to send a few people out to every record store in Britain

obviously I would wait till the week after National Treasures had been released so it would just look like a surge in Manic fandom

My apologies for not writing in to NME. My bad!
