Manic Street Preachers – The Love Of Richard Nixion

Finally they are back. In the year which is full of great comeback stories the Manics unless a new record. Its been 3 years since “Know Your Enemy” and this has been a long awaited release. Now as you noticed the song is about Richard Nixion. They always seem to pick a odd song topic. “The Love Of Richard Nixion” is truly something. It sounds like its fresh out of the 80s. Following on the theme of “There By The Grace Of God” they have been listening to a lot of New Order which isn’t really a bad thing. James’ voice here is something special to. It shows he has one of the best voices in rock. They are back folks and damn they didn’t disappoint.
