#Sg# Manic Street Preachers //
A design for life // [ ??? ]
A - A design for life (????)
B -
Bright eyes (Mike Batt)
Manic Street Preachers are ...
a band from Wales, formed by cousins
James Dean Bradfield (lead guitar, vocals) and
Sean Moore (drums, trumpet) with friends
Richard James Edwards (aka
Richey James,
Richey Edwards) (rhythm guitar) and Nick 'Nicky
Wire' Jones (bass, backing vocals). Bradfield and Moore were the only
ones who could play their instruments (Edwards never learned), so Edwards
and Wire wrote the lyrics and jumped about on stage, and were responsible
for the band's glam-punk image (makeup, tiaras, and spray-painted
clothes), while Bradfield and Moore wrote the music and played it.
On February 1, 1995, the eve of what was expected to be the Manics'
breakthrough US tour, Edwards disappeared from his hotel room. His car was
found near the Severn bridge in Wales, a notorious suicide blackspot.
Despite the numerous supposed 'sightings' of him over the years, the fact
remains that he almost certainly killed himself.
Once it became apparent that he wasn't going to turn up straight away, the
band decided to continue as a three-piece. The first fruits of that
version of the band came in 1995 with the single A Design For Life.
A classic bombastic pop single in the mold of Motorcycle Emptiness
this was also possibly the best political song of the 90s.
