No Singles on New Manic Street Preachers Album

The Manic Street Preachers have announced that there will be no singles released from their new album Journal for Plague Lovers. Whilst speaking to Xfm James Dean Bradfield said "It's hard to envisage some of these lyrics being played as a single. It's just such a body of work and the concerns of somebody that didn't care about commercial success. We did worry that our record company wouldn't know how to handle it, but they've been pretty gracious."

"I think there's an element of bafflement and bemusement on their behalf," added Nicky Wire. "But it's a tribute to Richey... It's a tribute to the notion of an 'album'. It feels kind of old fashioned, it's pre-digital. It was written on a typewriter because Richey never had a mobile phone or a laptop. We recorded it on analogue tape with no computers."

Goonies 2?

No only kidding! It is very doubtful that there would be a sequel to the Goonies and i think its best that way, it was an amazing film from my Childhood. A sequel really couldn't work for many reasons like what would they be looking for?, what would link them still together?, would it be about there Kids. Chunk has definitely lost his appeal! There would be no Chuffle Shuffle or being badly dressed. Jeff Cohen has really slimmed down and quite frankly looks normal. Sloth on the other hand is prob way too old for lifting people up! And it wouldn't be the same without Anne Ramsey (Sloth's Mother Mama Fratelli). Anyway Empire Got the whole Crew together including Steven Spielberg for the photo Shoot (Shown Above) So i should say thanks for stealing their picture (Thank you!). If you want to read the full article its here The Goonies. Let me know your comments. Especially if its about Possible plots.

New Manic Street Preachers Album out 18th May - Journal for Plague Lovers

With the new album out on the 18th May entitled Journal for Plague Lovers can we finally say its a new Manics Album that we can love a
gain? For me the last best album was the Holy Bible, Richey Edwards was an incredibly gifted Poet and James Dean Bradfield had an incredible pair of shoes to fill. Yes his songs were catchy but they were incredibly commercial, they lacked the anger, the politicalism, they just didn't have the energy of Richey's Songs. I'm hoping by going back to Richey's Musicless Lyrics it has inspired them with the confidence to Rock out again! I leave you with the lyrics to my Favourite Manics Song. Let me know your comments.

4st 7lb
Days since I last pissed
Cheeks sunken and despaired
So gorgeous sunk to six stone
Lose my only remaining home
See my third rib appear
A week later all my flesh disappear
Stretching taut, cling-film on bone
I'm getting better
Karen says Ive reached my target weight
Kate and emma and kristin know its fake
Problem is diets not a big enough word
I wanna be so skinny that I rot from view
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
Stomach collapsed at five
Lift up my skirt my sex is gone
Naked and lovely and 5st. 2
May I bud and never flower
My visions getting blurred
But I can see my ribs and I feel fine
My hands are trembling stalks
And I can feel my breasts are sinking
Mother trys to choke me with roast beef
And sits savouring her sole ryvitta
Thats the way you re built my father said
But I can change, my cocoon shedding
I want to walk in the snow
And not leave a footprint
I want to walk in the snow
And not soil its purity
Kate and kristin and kit kat
All things I like looking at
Too weak to fuss, too weak to die
Choice is skeletal in everybodys life
I choose, my choice, I starve to frenzy
Hunger soon passes and sickness soon tires
Legs bend, stockinged I am twiggy
And I don't mind the horror that surrounds me
Self-worth scatters, self-esteems a bore
I long since moved to a higher plateau
This disciplines so rare so please applaud
Just look at the fat scum who pamper me so
Yeh 4st. 7, an epilogue of youth
Such beautiful dignity in self-abuse
Ive finally come to understand life
Through staring blankly at my navel.

Pirate Bay Founders Sent to Jail for 12 Months

So the Founders have been sent to jail and fined a minuscule amount of money $4.5 Million (in terms of what people have been able to download), yet they have failed to have the website shut down? When will the Music Industry wake up and realise its time for a new business model? Is it because it is ruled by Dinosaurs? Do they not realise that people do not want to pay for Music anymore? I would prefer to either have an Ad supported system or buy a license for a £100 a year enabling me to download and keep everything. Alternatively why not charge a little more for Live Venue Tickets. Ticket touts have already driven the cost up why not try and get rid of them and charge a bit more? I would really like to know what the costs are for supplying music over the Web? Surely it cant be as much as a Cd? let me know your comments.

Update Ghostbusters 3


Dan Ackroyd has confirmed that Ernie Hudson will be in the Movie along with Sigourney Weaver. The Story will centre on training a new Generation of Ghostcatchers (More Ghostbusters films then...) and that they will be led by an individual who we will all love! (in that case its def not Adam Sandler or Ben Stiller) and the Story will be about travelling to different dimensions (perhaps including some of the details from the Original Ghostbusters in Hell idea?) Anyway thanks to Digital Spy for the lowdown.

Ghostbusters 3 and Video Game

With the Video Game being released on 19th June (see Amazon) and a Blu ray release of the Original Ghostbusters film on 15th June (seems odd releasing 4 days apart?). The Hype surrounding the 3rd Movie has never seen so much momentum. IMDB has it at being up by 68% in popularity this week. Why are we always looking at remakes or sequels to films that we loved from our Childhoods? Isn't that where they should stay? We have already had Star Wars virtually ruined by George Lucas's Prequels. Will it be the same seeing 4 fat old men running after Ghosts? There is no confirmation from Ernie Hudson (Winston Zeddemore) that he will be in the Third instalment, i also think there will be no Lois Tully (Rick Moranis) as he retired from Showbiz to raise his kids. Let me know your comments.
