Is that Daisy Edgar-Jones in the vid? Manics must have some financial clout - either that or she owes them a tenner...

It sounds quite similar to the previous single. Another good track though.

I've been revisiting a few latter day Manics albums tonight in anticipation of their forthcoming new album which isn't all that long away now... Journal for Plague Lovers sounding as incredible to me as it did when it was first released... Futurology up next!

I don't think their recent single got much airplay did it? Strange because the Orwellian single got loads.

Yeah seems weird. I think this track is stronger.

They might release another track shortly before the album - why not? They've already put the release date back once.

I usually really rate Bradfield vocals, but this sounds like wheatus.

I reckon he's going deeper than usual to highlight the high vocals on the choruses.
