It's been the same for me these last few months. It's great, isn't it?

Going to listen for gremlins in 'The Convalescent'. Is it David Holmes's buzzy synths/feedback?

It does sound messy, but even so, I am of the opinion that the last two minutes of The Convalescent is up there with their greatest outros.

In one of those videos linked on Facebook, James said the song was Wayne's arch-nemesis.

What I like about Spectators of Suicide is its strong instrumental focus. I think it's a sound that can easily be adapted to different styles. If I were a musician I'd enjoy trying to cover it.
If you really want it I could send you spectators of suicide by email?

If you got a few of the album tracks Manics have never performed live you'd have a fucking great album.

1) All We Make Is Entertainment
2) Methadone Pretty
3) Symphony Of Tourette
4) So Dead
5) Be Natural
6) The Convalescent
7) Glasnost
8) Fragments
9) Don't Be Evil
10) Gold Against The Soul
11) Auto-Intoxication
12) Condemned To Rock N' Roll

Or something...
