This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours

Since 1988, Welsh band Manic Street Preachers built a fiercely loyal fan base, founded on the group's mix of unflinching politics and rock & roll attitude. Following a series of low key indie releases and several albums on Columbia, the Manic's returned in '96 as a 3-piece with the single "A Design for Life," which hit #2 on the U.K. charts. Their new album features the track "If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next," which topped the British charts it's 1st week of release.
