yes haha, manics, the horrors, britpop and "indie" bands from the UK, bowie & iggy pop, the grunge fandom and riot grrrl, nick cave even - tumblr had a lot of music fans back then, before it blew up on a mainstream level a few years later & got overtaken by other media like fiction/tv (and then died in popularity lol)

They really are legendary. I can't understand how the americans didn't appreciate their mastery in music. Btw, Dying Breeds and Pedestal, among MANY others, are epic b-sides!

i personally dont think it's Richey's fault, rather the music press of the times. if you were a big-ish band in the 90s magazines (like NME, rest in shit) would go to great lengths to conceive a certain 'myth' or 'mystery'. and Richey was a very vulnerable person who was certainly unprepared for that and couldn't control his words and actions sometimes, so he fueled it only more. personally, I've been listening to manics for more than seven years now, and even though i have some issues and am bisexual, i can't attribute this to manics more than everything else in my life. it's never "i was miserable because i listened to pop music", it's "i listened to pop music because i was miserable". and i'm happy that i have a band which hits so close to home for me. fuck the romanticization, fuck the glorification, but none of this is the band's fault. sorry for being late to the party and thanks for coming to my ted talk

if Richey were still alive, he would probably say that you must be an IDIOT if you want to live like him

Great band. Such a shame modern bands are namby pamby lefty crap now. While despite being mainstream with chart success had a political message that was very clear against this degenerate crap the west is dealing with now from our crappy left leaning political parties and traitor politicians
