Just announced this morn, the Manic Street Preachers have announced just 7 dates for a unique tour to play their iconic 1994 album; "one of the darkest, most visceral albums in rock history" - 'The Holy Bible', in full!

They still make fantastic albums, their last two, 2013's "Rewind the Film" and this year's "Futurology" are sterling works!

It's a harrowing album, Ireland - not sure I'd like to see it played live. I'd put it on the same planet as Lou Reed's Berlin. Their last few albums have been back to form.

I'll be going when the come to Manchester. Brilliant album

Bradfield is a genius for managing to put those lyrics to actual music, and not have it sound forced in any way.

Hello,

He is an utterly brilliant frontman - magnificent voice and excellent guitar player.

I want to bump this, if only to hopefully at least turn one person on to the Manics.
