Last week, on a ridiculously long commute into work (three and a half hours.. thanks First Capital Connect), I rediscovered the Manic Street Preachers’ Gold Against the Soul.
It’s a fine album, decorated with jewels like Sleepflower, La Tristesse Durerra and Roses in the Hospital. Rediscovering it after at least a three year hiatus was a joy to behold.
It’s always great to find a long lost friend in this way, and it’s a joy I don’t get to recreate too often. Next weekend I’ll have to thumb through the record collection – ok, scan up and down the cd towers – to see what else I haven’t listened to for a while.
your reiew was very enlightening making me want to listen to The Manic Street Preachers, thankyou.
