I wonder if that means they're back working with Nick Naysmith?

Please tell me that not all the songs are as terrible as the single I heard on the radio the other day. I can't believe how awful it is actually - Nicky is hitting a new low with his lyrics.

So glad I didn't bother getting tickets to the tour.

I've noticed they're still making their old songs sound shit live with crappy keyboard parts added to the likes of 'Faster'.

Terrible, growing old and fat is one thing - but I hoped they wouldn't turn to shit musically.


Seriously though, a keyboard is the last thing I want to hear when I'm listening to 'Faster' - for christ's sake they did hire another guitarist!

I for one am glad they didn't give up after that piece-of-shit album; but instead went on to make an interesting pop album (Lifeblood), a majorly flawed but enjoyable rock album (Tigers) and a fucking masterpiece equal to THB and EMG (Journal).

I wish they did what Sugababes did and let someone else take over. Bagsy I'm Sean!

The keyboards have never bothered me.

I agree, Lifeblood is good in that pop sheen way, Tigers is exactly that - an enjoyable rock album - and Plague Lovers brilliant. The only issue I have with your statement is that I do love KYE as much as any of them..somehow. It's raw warmth somehow works for me.

So for me, it's been a great 10 years of MSP. We're so fortunate to have had our favourite band around for so long, when I first got into them all those years ago did I think I'd be traipsing off the Brixton Academy in 2010 to see them?? No.

from the very short clips my impressions are
: - some kind of nothingness, don't be evil, hazleton avenue, the descent, billion balconies, postcards
- all sound fantastic and fresh

automatic intox, think i found it, all we make is entertainment, it's not war
- all sound good but more manics by numbers

future forever is very, very different

golden platitudes can't tell much about this kind of song from such a short clip

The demo clip of golden platitudes sounds better than with the choir

I can't think, and I can't paint, I can't love!
And no one will, for money makes us up

Death to monetaries!
