Generation Terrorists

Manic Street Preachers

Eighteen tracks of hyper-literate punk-glam and stadium-sized choruses. A dense, drum-machine driven debut fueled by political rage and 1990s urban alienation.

It's like if a philosophy professor joined a glam-metal band and decided to start a revolution.

A relentless collision of intellectual fury and stadium-rock ambition.
