The Holy Bible by The Manic Street Preachers
I love The Holy Bible, after Everything Must Go I went on a bit of a voyage through the previous Manics albums. At first, this wasn't the easiest album to get along with - despite JDB's skilfully impressive and fierce instrumentality. That all changed after a while. Now it's seminal - a caustic benchmark.
It's difficult to slot it into a genre, and difficult to describe the style. It's like trying to describe The Mars Volta to someone, you can't just call it prog.
I don't really want to describe the album much more, and I'd rather not go on about any of the subjects covered in the lyrics because I could be here all night.
You should listen to it if you haven't.
Little people in little houses
Like maggots small blind and worthless
The massacred innocent blood stains us all
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible - you fucking are
Who's responsible
