Same as. Just can't muster up the enthusiasm, event though I bought SATT on the day of release.

I listen to the b-sides waaay more than I listen to the actual album

Same with SATT, too. Next time they release an album they should pool what they think should be the album tracks and what they think should be bsides and just swap em over.

Haha, yeah, that would work! Song like Red Rubber SHOULD have been on the album. Could have replaced some of the weaker ones on there

Cheapest I can find it is £9.47 from Tesco.

If you buy it from amazon marketplace rather than amazon themselves it's cheaper

Yes, but marketplace prices don't include P&P, which usually brings it up to around the same as the regular Amazon price.

For me, this album represents anticipation for various things at the backend of the last summer, and the intense ridiculousness that followed. Weird looking back, less than a year old and this album already holds memories for me. Like any Manics era and the role it plays, I guess.

Fast becoming my favourite album of theirs. Billion balconies - brilliant lyric, pretty much sums up modern humanity

Another post on FD where I wish there was a "Like" button!

I still like the album. Haven't really tired of it yet.

Same here. It came out the week I moved out of my parents house and now (in my head) is synonymous with that whole period of time. 'Postcards From A Young Man' seemed quite poignant in a way ha ha.

Since there's a little buzz going on, might as well bung it in the car tmrw.

Mark dirtiest secret of the album is the catchy Queen-ish track proabbly being my favourite.

Woah, it's the opposite of a backlash! A frontlash, if you like.

6 months on and I still can' get passed the first 3 tracks.
