It’s a real shame they didn’t release an interview or get involved with some twitter stuff over the last few months. Would’ve been great to coincide with the GATS re-release with doing something for lockdown.
Well Sean did that feud with Currys about his fridge freezer on twitter. Does that count as publicity?

Currys, they won't do this, but can you imagine if Curry's became sponsors of every music venue in the UK? The Manics really are Curb Your Enthusiasm made into a band.
And we would watch the hell out of that! Nicky taking advantage of wearing a MAGA hat until it begins to backfire etc.

La Tristesse 1080p... probably the most convincing one so far https://youtu.be/6ekFkY2kwYY

Nice. I'm liking the high quality vids, even though this era doesn't really have the best ones, they're a bit dull really. La tristesse probably is the most interesting to watch so benefits from the quality. Shame they're not in 16:9.

Same as with the first package, if you ask it seems to make the replacement come quicker (or at all, who knows). Dispatched same day.

Did anyone else who ordered from the official store receive their vinyl and book separately? I preordered both but only received the book at this point.

Mastering may be loud but on the ipod it sounds great. I've mixed in the b sides with album in the sequence I play it to this point and its a 16 track stellar album.

Always loved it but this past week; the book, Pieces of Sleep film, playing the remastered album most days, has really been a reminder how good it is.

Even Symphony of Tourette Many people rate that one? I love the metal riffing, solo section, the fire in the vocals.

Long live the Manics!
