Mac doesn't have as strong a voice as when he was younger but I still enjoy his singing. I'm not looking for the vocals to be a 'who can outsing who' type battle or anything! It will be amazing, I know it!

Listening to The Descent at the moment on Youtube. (Don't tell Tom! Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
It's THB meets Truth for me, can't wait to hear the album version!

'The winner takes it all.' Careful lads, don't want a lawsuit from the members of ABBA!

Had my subscribers issue of Q magazine yesterday. Whole page review of of PFAYM with a good 4* rating, very positive. Also a fantasically camp picture of Nicky in leopard skin legings... As I am a luddite I can't scan and upload it. Sure somebody will today though.

If it had been a pic of JDB I'd be happier of course!

Post Manic Street Preachers - Postcards From A Young Man (Reviews)

Release September 20 2010 by Columbia
Ten albums into their life's work, it would be wrong to say that the Manic Street Preachers are raging against the dying of the light. 'Postcards From A Young Man' comes after the acclaimed 'Journal For Plague Lovers', a record of steely intent and corrosive power on which every lyric was taken from the final folder of work left by former member Richey Edwards just prior to his disappearance in 1995. That album in turn was a typically stark and startling follow-up to 2007s triumphantly resurgent 'Send Away The Tigers', an album that gave new heart to their global faithful. 'Postcards...' may be their best yet. Defiantly, unapologetically bold and forthright and communicative, it makes the head swim with both the thrill of its tunes and its theories [always a heady Manics mix] and burns with that raging melancholia that has always been unique to them. Includes the single '[It's Not War] Just The End Of Love' and features a guest appearance by Echo & The Bunnymen's Ian McCulloch.

I'm excited for the album, but really?...

Have you not heard the other album written by "former member Richey Edwards just prior to his disappearance in 1995"?

"raging against the dying of the light" this is going to Wire' favourite saying of this year. I've heard him say it a few times / read it. Expect it a lot more.

I've heard the acoustic version of The Descent but that is definitely it for me until the album comes out!

In case it hasn't already been mentioned, the bonus track on the Japanese version is called Evidence Against Myself
