Wow, that's a harsh critique of the Manics. I agree with you though about being more invested in the band itself than in the music. For me, it was about the music first. I fell in love with FOB after hearing Arms Race, and I didn't discover Patrick until later.

IOH just got me through so much last year, and it's such a special album to me. I know you're not a fan, and that's totally cool, I respect that, but out of all of FOB's albums, Folie A Deux is the only one I can genuinely say I don't like. I don't think I'll be listening to this one much. I can listen to TTTYG and FUCT and IOH in their entirety and never tire of them but this? No. This one's gonna get filed with EOWYG for the CD I listen to the least. These ones won't rate high on my Last.fm playlist, that's for sure...

Poor Andy. I wouldn't have the heart to tell him I'm not feeling the album. :/
