this one's for the freaks...

[U2Man]

manic street preachers: send away the tigers.

has anyone given this a listen yet?

top quality from manics as usual.

your love is not enough with nina persson is particularly beautiful.

 

[LJT]

"people like you need to fuck, need to fuck people like me"



It's been quite great so far, only on to Indian Summer though.

 

[U2Man]

"people like you need to fuck, need to fuck people like me"

i think of nina persson every time he sings that line.

 

[LJT]

I would have to agree with you there

oooh Autumnsong is quite lovely jubbly

and ooh la la I'm Just a Patsy is excellente too..very rock n roll record.

 

[LJT]

If one put this record alongside the latest BRMC record, we may be able to have a very rockin party

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

I've only heard 'Underdogs' and 'Your Love Alone'. Quite like what I've heard, and will of course be buying the thing when it comes out.

If anyone can provide me a nice linky to preview though...

 

[U2Man]

yertle, i need your email.

 

[LJT]

I find it immensely bewildering that at least on here, there are very few manics fans

 

[U2Man]

well, they are missing out, because this album is wonderful.

 

[bayou12780]

link please, too? bayou12780 at hotmail dot com.

just found out the cooper temple clause split up. a little bummed...

"However, the band announced they would be going their separate ways on 24th April 2007 and the band are officially split."

wonder if this is a joke - they were supposed to play at Camden Crawl in London apr 19-20.

on the bright side, BRMC will be at 9:30 club on june 2.

 

[U2Man]

i really cannot get enough of your love is not enough.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

Same, it's been in my head all day.

Cheers with leopard print and lipstick.

[redkat]

Your Love Alone is Not Enough is the only song I have so far from the new album. I love it, and I hear the rest is excellent. I'll be getting it.

 

[U2Man]

careful or canadiens will sic win on you. i need a few more listens.. reserving judgement. so far not really grabbing me like neon bible and baby81 did on first listen.

 

[impy13]

Thanks for spamming me and sending me an album I didn't ask for, U2Douche.

I'm going to listen to it just to spite you.

 

[U2Man]

you were on my list of freaks

if you don't like it, you're a hopeless case.

 

[MrBrau1]

dudeman called me and told me to listen to this.

I'm 2/3 through "Send Away The Tigers" and I'm in love.

Huge, bombastic, grand, massive, anthemic, guitar rock.

 

[U2Man]

you're not familiar with manics already, brau?

 

[MrBrau1]

you're not familiar with manics already, brau?

I've gotten a couple of their albums. Saw JDB acoustic in NYC a few years back.

I'd actually forgotten about them.

you just helped remind me.

 

[yertle-the-turtle]

Ok I'm downloading this now, thanks U2Man.

Can't wait for it to be released, been spinning This Is My Truth and EMG in recent weeks.

JDB is one of the best rock singers around at the moment, in my opinion.

Edit: And oh yeah I started a thread on this a month ago and it died after four posts...I don't get any love round here.

 

[dudeman]

fuck everything.
this is one of the best things i've EVER HEARD.
EVER.
and i have amazingly good taste. probably the BEST taste.
trust me.
neon bible (as good as it is) smells like nyc bus exhaust compared to this (nyc bus exhaust smells like bad, industrial farts, for those of you who don't know).
holyfuckingshit. i absolutely love this album. and if you haven't visited it yet, check out the manics' official site, for one of the most engaging, entertaining, inspiring reads you'll find from a major band. look in the band section for nicky wire's tale of the album, then click on the 'about the album' link for a track by track...
