The worst Manics' album II

Here we are after the tenth album release!

I'm between TIMTTMY and PFAYM so I probably need a month or two to decide...

I don't consider there to be a 'worst' Manics album sorry. The one that comes at the bottom of my pile is usually GT for some reason.

it's just worst of them - it doesn't mean it's bad at all. around 1999 I always sais that the five Manics album were the five best albums of all times better than anything else so the worst of them was still very well placed

Know Your Enemy or Postcards

Neither is bad, but KYE is too unfocused and Postcards is too average. Will need a month to decide!

GATS and GT aren't very good albums either, but they do have quite a few killer tracks on them
