Details: Amazon.caIt didn’t look good: Both singer-guitarist James Dean Bradfield and bassist Nicky Wire spent 2006 promoting their solo debuts; The Welsh trio’s last studio album, 2004’s Lifeblood, was snubbed by fans and critics alike; and public attention moved on to younger, feistier British guitar acts like The Arctic Monkeys and Kaiser Chiefs. So how exactly did the Manic Street Preachers pull this off? Send Away The Tigers is the group’s most potent work in ages, containing 38-minutes of massive arena rock riffs, raw political vigor, and first-class tunes. With tracks like “Imperial Bodybags” and “Autumnsong” the band reaffirms its promise to carry on the incendiary spirit of The Clash, while Nina Persson of The Cardigans swoops in just in time to melt a few hearts on “Your Love Alone Is Not Enough.” –Aidin VaziriProduct Descr
