Good pics
 The article didn't interest me much, though I usually like reading the NME.

Thanks for that. I'll be having to buy the NME this week then. I feel a bit more positive
 Sounds like the Ian McCulloch duet is going to be very good though! This has got me excited about seeing the reviews the album gets. I LOVE seeing the ratings. NME gave SATT 8 out of 10 didn't they?!

Yup both SATT and JFPL got 8/10.

Ooh sounds good and I'm feeling more hopeful. I was well pissed off that I didn't like It's Not War on the first few listens and this has cheered me up.
Love the pics too. Have to get NME tomorrow.

Obtuse is not a word I would associate with the Manics.

"Channelling early Oasis at their most Mott The Hoople."
I really hope not.

I get the feeling this is a very personal album to themselves.

It all sounds quite interesting in that it seems to be all over the place musically, in a sense it does, but what I got from the reviewer it doesn't seem to be a totally original/authentic Manics record, Nicky said himself they were going for a Queen-sound in Postcards From A Young Man. I'd agree that perhaps instead they're going for a more personal record this time around. Time will tell I spose, hell from the descriptions they gave us I'm just dying to give The Descent a listen, definitely sounds like my kind of tune (if it's anything close to being in the vein of No Surface, All Feeling I'm sure I'll fall in love with it in a matter of seconds.)

It's amazing how in 2010 the NME can put a positive spin on 'channelling Oasis at their most Mott The Hoople'. Nicky has that current editorial team jammed so securely in his back pocket it's unreal.
