Always liked the Manics (up until Everything Must Go after that they died)
and have a new found respect for them after seeing them at Reading Fest 2008 I've neglected their music in recent years. The Holy Bible has jumped into my all time top 20 after re listening to it after all these years. It's hard to believe it's the same band making the dirge you hear these days (well not really the same since Richey is still M.I.A) They definitely were better with Edwards' creativity, a sad loss. I wish they'd go back to their early 90's awesomeness they were great live at Reading as well opening with Faster and closing with You Love Us and of course Design For Life

"Even the bands from the past that we love - The Who, the Stones, the Pistols, The Clash - the way all of them turned out in the end was disillusioning, a letdown. We'll never let that happen." - Richey

The Holy Bible really is MSP's Magnum opus.
Commendable for Richey's truly incredible lyrics and also for James' skill of putting them to a melody. Lots of run on lines and hefty use of syllables in there. Not an easy task.
