Manics versus The Cure.

James would defeat The Cure single handedly!

Who would win in a fight between;

Manics (Pre '95) versus Joy Division?
Manics (Post '95) versus New Order?

New Order for the older Manics. And after all that careful intelligence and personality craft, music was so ashamed by Richey Edwards out of character knocking the fuck out of an epileptic, Richey had to disappear and leave his car at the service station. His reputation as damaged as Ian Watkins.

FRONT MAN FIGHT!

James Dean Bradfield from 1995 goes into a bar. He sees Ian Watkins from Lostprophets from 2014 eyeing some young skirt on the dancefloor.
Just when James thinks he should go outside and phone the police, as he turns around he sees Billy Joe Armstrong from 2013 walking in with his arm around the shoulder of David Gilmour in his 1977 built. And as James stops, he bumps into the person behind him and gets a drink spilt on his back.
James turns around to be angry only to see... it's the lead singer from Wolfmother 2000wellthey'vealwaysbeenshit looking as angry as the curly haired ponce could possibly manage.

How does that get resolved with fisticuffs?

1995 James picks up the Wolfmother singer and uses him to beat Ian Watkins to death. David Gilmour plays one of his lengthy and almost identical solos as this happens, throwing the guitar to James after he's finished to plunge through Watkins' head. Billie Joe has come and joined in at some point, and James thanks the shaken Wolfmother singer before depositing him in a heap and buying another drink.

I reckon Bob's a bit tasty. He'd lamp Wire, that's for sure. Lamp him right up.

But the rock Hobbit tag team of Bradders and Mooro would probably prevail.

I remember an article like this in the Melody Maker(?).

Sean was put up against Richard Oakes of Suede in a lightweight women's battle IIRC.

The Cure aren't fighters!

Now I reckon the Manics can handle themselves. Nicky is from Blackwood and used to wear eyeliner and blouses around town. If he couldn't handle himself, he'd be dead.
