Manic Street Preachers are a Welsh rock/pop band, formed in 1989 by friends James Eastwood Bradfield, Nick Jones, Christmas Edwards and Seanus Walrus in an attempt to avoid employment. Mixing together a powerful combination of political propoganda and punk infused rock, they stormed onto the music scene in 1991 to audible yawns of disinterest. In spite of these humble beginnings, the band would go on to make hit records and survive even the death of bandmate Christmas Edwards in a freak yachting accident. Their most famous compositions include such pop classics as "Ceremonial Murdering State Apparatus Of Oppression", "Repeat After Me That The Queen Is A Parasitic Demon In Human Form (And Not A Nice Old Lady As She Wants You To Believe)" and "Knees Up, Mother Courage".

  • Manic Street Preachers, pred P.V.T. známi ako Maniac Street Creatures (ďalej MSP) je banda deprimovaných bláznov z Británie, konkrétne z Walesu. Títo čudáci hrajú aj hudbu, ktorej žáner mnohí mylne označujú za EMO. V skutočnosti však medzi MSP a Emom je jeden vážny rozdiel - MSP ľudovia milujú, za čo sa im odvďačili piesňov „You Love Us“.

  • The Manic Street Preachers are a three-piece band from Wales and are known for their left wing image and politically motivated songs. Their current line-up is James Dean Bradfield (Vocals/Guitar), Nicky Wire (Bass Guitar) and Sean Moore (Drums). They started as a quartet in 1986 with Nicky Wire writing much of their early work. When original bassist Miles Woodward left, Wire continued to write lyrics but switched from guitar to bass. Richey Edwards joined after being a roadie and became their rhythm guitarist as well as contributing to lyrics with Wire. In 1995, Edwards mysteriously disappeared and after deliberation, the Manics continued as a three-piece. They have had eight Top 10 albums and fifteen Top 10 singles, including two Number 1s.

  • Manic Street Preachers are a Welsh alternative rock band, formed in 1986 in Blackwood and consisting of James Dean Bradfield (lead vocals, lead guitar), Nicky Wire (bass guitar, lyrics) and Sean Moore (drums). They are often colloquially known as "The Manics", or simply, "Manics". Originally a quartet, the band became a trio when primary lyricist and rhythm guitarist Richey Edwards disappeared on 1 February 1995. Their early combination of androgynous glam imagery and critical social lyrics about "culture, alienation, boredom and despair" gained them a loyal following and cult status.
  • Peel continued playing some of the band's material until 1991 when he lost interest in the group. In 1996 listeners took the opposite view and voted A Design For Life at #42 in the 1996 Festive Fifty. A year later he played the band's debut B-side single Tennessee on his show.

Later in that same year, after the release of the first single, "Suicide Alley", Richey Edwards joined the band as primary lyricist and rhythm guitarist. The first record of the band, Generation Terrorists, they proclaimed would be the "greatest rock album ever"[1] and sell around sixteen million copies around the world, "from Bangkokto Senegal", and then they would split up.[2] The album did not meet this scale of success a
