Maybe the most mediocre band of all time. I expect to hear this kinda crap on Mary-Kate and Ashely teen romance movies.

You never quite know what you will get with the Manics, but when they are good, they are real good. Everything must go and Tell me your truth....... are personal favourites.

I like the Manic Street Preachers... but I'd understand if someone didn't. They can get preachy, and their albums haven't been of consistent quality. Their 92-98 output is top notch. Searing guitars, underrated melodies, and biting lyrics. They can be guilty of reaching too much, but I'd rather them do that then write mindless fluff. After This is my Truth, however, they lost the ability of songcraft - inconsistent albums lacking remarkable tracks. One exception - Journal for Plague Lovers shocked the hell out of me. I had given up on the Manics, and this albums hits as hard as their Richey Edwards era.

Incredible band. They can't possibly be disliked, unless the disliker is a rightist or a sufferer of Bieber fever. They have so many great songs, ranging from Motorcycle Emptiness to Empty Souls to Miss Europa Disco Dancer. The last four are my favourite albums (unlike everyone).

I enjoy this band a fair amount, although I must admit they can grow tiresome after extended listens. That being said, Motorcycle Emptiness is one of my 10-20 favorite songs of all time and I must show love for that.

If only Arcade Fire and Muse didn't exist. Then, the Manics would've been the greatest group ever without any consideration. Best songs: Motorcycle Emptiness, Yes, A Design For Life, If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next, Ocean Spray, 1985, Autumnsong, Peeled Apples, (It's Not War) Just the End of Love, Some Kind of Nothingness...
