Absolutely. I don't understand people who say they wish the Manics still wrote "political" songs, have they just not been listening?

Sunday Brunch on now, James already expressed the war on couscous and Nicky one-upping Kim Wilde’s record-signing by a factor of 12, all in the first 10 minutes. Good times.

James & Nicky came across really well on Sunday Brunch I think. Lots of things discussed that we would’ve mostly heard or seen already, but the story around the album artwork (yes there was a vinyl copy of the album being held by Tim Lovejoy!) & the artist crashing into Nicky’s car was gold

Good to see that copies exist two days after the planned release date, making sure we know for certain that the delay was for chart purposes.

Alternatively, James claimed it was the first time he was seeing it, perhaps suggesting that certainty is questionable.

(Though personally I agree with you )

Apple Music is still giving me a 7 Feb release date so I'm hoping for it to be released "accidentally". If the delay is due to chart positions then they have absolutely zero faith in their fanbase to get them a number 1 position.

To be fair, the only times they've managed it in the past are due to the ludicrous freebies last time, and the totally different world of 1998.
