It is rare indeed for popular music to be reviewed in academic journals, so we’re super-chuffed that our debut album has received its fifth academic review, this one in 'Popular Music History'. (We have a bit more to say about this on our FB and Insta pages) journal.equinoxpub.com/PMH/article/...

Happy anniversary to me! 15 years a fan of the Manics, thanks to them being on Strictly. What a time to be alive 😆 The fandom had a meltdown worthy of 'the sky is falling in' and Nicky Wire mused on twitter "What to wear?" 💕💞💖 I wouldn't trade a single day of it all.

Dear Supermarkets,

Please stop asking if I want to donate to charity every bastard time I purchase your overpriced stock.

Why don’t you donate some of your PROFITS & maybe lower prices instead of being greedy cunts who you are robbing us blind.

Now FUCK OFF asking me.
