Oh, can I take the opportunity to point out that the new Manics sounds

The excitement of waiting for a new album release outstrips by a mile the actual moment when it slots into the tray and the laser does its thing. The first time I realised this was when I bought the Tindersticks' live album. Months of waiting after hearing them live, and then one day it finally appears on my doormat in a fat brown envelope. As I carefully clicked the disc from its casing it occurred to me that once I pressed play, I would never ever again know what it felt like not to know what it would sound like. I would never again be able to appreciate the anticipation. I'll go out an buy The boy...on the day of release, with only radio snippets to keep me going until then. Then I'll listen to it. And then I'll realise that I won't hear many new songs for a very long time... As for the manics. It's an old theme, but the new song is a little bit too much by numbers.
