Manic Street Preachers JOURNAL FOR PLAGUE LOVERS Vinyl Record - UK Release

Import vinyl LP pressing. 2009 release, the ninth studio album from the Welsh Alt-Rockers. The album follows the hugely successful and critically acclaimed 2007 release Send Away the Tigers, and the induction of the band into the NME's Hall of Fame with their naming as the NME Godlike Genius for 2008. Produced by Steve Albini and recorded live at Rockfield Studios in Wales during the Winter of 2008, the album features lyrics left behind by former guitarist Richey Edwards across all 13 new tracks. An original piece of Jenny Saville's art is the cover of Journal for Plague Lovers, whose painting graced the cover of 1994's 'The Holy Bible'. Musically the band draw on their classic Holy Bible sound with elements of Nirvana's in Utero, as well as a delicate, beautiful acoustic side.
