Manics announce new album details
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 27 July 2010
The Manic Street Preachers have got a new album coming out. It will be their tenth and it will be called ‘Postcards From A Young Man’ and it will be released on 20 Sep. Ian McCulloch from Echo And The Bunnymen guests on one track and former Guns N Roses man Duff McKagan does a bit of guitar stuff somewhere on the album, too. The first single, ‘(It’s Not War) – Just The End Of Love’, will be out on 13 Sep.
James Dean Bradfield recently said that the album would see them in full pop mode, telling the NME: “We’re going for big radio hits on this one. It isn’t a follow-up to [2009’s] ‘Journal For Plague Lovers’. It’s one last shot at mass communication”.
Here’s the tracklist for the album:
(It’s Not War) – Just The End Of Love
Postcards From A Young Man
Some Kind of Nothingness
The Descent – (Pages 1 & 2)
Hazleton Avenue
Auto-Intoxication
