Manic Street Preachers: Next Direction?

So We've Heard Manic Street Preachers Will Start Work On A New Record Around Autumn Time, But Being A Band Who Have Made Every Album Sound Different From The Last, Yet Making It Sound Like A Manic Street Preachers Record, What Will Be The Direction Of The Next Album, Plus Albums To Follow?

to be honest I'm more interested which label will launch The Next Album.
Heavenly - part of EMI? they seem to like each other
or maybe they will stay in Sony? or release their new album in their own label? I don't think they would do the same as Radiohead did.

I have my doubts about them doing the same thing as Radiohead as well. I hope they do something different and not another SATT.

I actually wouldn't mind a more acoustic album. It would be something different.

I wouldn't mind an acoustic album but I wouldn't want to wait 2 or 3 years for it. An album plus a disc of acoustic tracks like Foo Fighters' In Your Honour would be good.

Maybe More Songs Like Hibernation, Small Black Flowers That Grow In The Sky, This Is Yesterday. This Is A Strong Side To The Manics I'd Like To Hear More Of.

I Don't Mean To Be An Ass But Why Do You Type Your Posts Like They're Headlines Or Titles?

Anyway, I'd quite like a more acoustic-based direction too. Things like KYE's ramshackle acoustic rockers, JFPL's more tender moments or say Black Dog on My Shoulder really make me intrigued how nifty a whole album in that sort of direction would be.

I am intrigued by your insistence on putting a Capital Letter At The Start Of Each Word in every single one of your posts...

Personally I Would Hate The Next Album To Be Full Of Acoustic Songs. Maybe It's Just Because They Were B-sides, But I Felt The Acoustic B-sides For SATT Were All, Without Exception, The Poorest Of The SATT Era Songs And Possibly Even The Poorest Songs They've Written In Their Career. I Don't Think They Would Properly Make Use Of Their Talents If They Restrict Themselves To Acoustic Songs, Certainly Not Sean's Powerhouse Drumming.

I Would Like Them To Experiment A Bit, But Do It With Instruments Plugged In. Maybe Stuff In The Same Direction As The Vorticists?
