The Ultra Vivid Lament Singles Poll Off

Well that's two heard. Strongest indication for all the "Lifeblood" and "Futurology" comparisons, we'll be entering uncharted territory with this album.
Who Else But A Manics Fan Should Notice#45642: So from the interviews, these two tracks were written before Lockdown.
We've yet to hear what those actually sound like, apart from some seriously distorted clips.
10 options so you'll get three votes. Although it's this demand to break democratic protocol that's causing so many problems these days

Going for a cop out of “both”. Just so great to have new Manics music.

Can't decide. They're both decent songs but neither one gives me the same feeling as when I heard the first two singles from RIF, as they were up there with the Manics best (especially Distant Colours in my opinion).
