I always thought sean was a bluebird. I know Patrick, nickys brother, is a bluebird. Nicky supports Leeds i think.
Great band live and still knocking out some good tunes.
Motorcycle emptiness is a masterpiece.
Non manics realated.. Currently listening to 'Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs' .
Brilliant
I was told that Nicky Wire 'looks out for our results' seem to recall that James supports Forest
I've seen James at the City once or twice
They're big Wales fans too which ought to appease Sludge - weren't they at the battering by Holland with SFA?
Excellent band, still making some good stuff, though obviously different to their heyday. I'd certainly have them down as the best Welsh band
SFA are clear..

I remember seeing them before a wales game (was it Italy?) and thought they were amazing, I was quite young so didn’t know a lot about them. Went to see them in concert following that and was bored.
See! what i like to do is make sure that the band i like is into the club i like...so basically i'm listening to thin air or my own farts.
but i'll post this because it's .....van halen

Their early stuff was a bit retro, influenced by The Clash and Guns N' Roses. The track Little Baby Nothing wouldn't be too out of place on a Meat Loaf album, but very good nevertheless.
In a way they were sort of a reaction against all those Shoegazing bands from the Home Counties that were prevalent in indie rock during the early 90s.
I always thought The Girl Who Wanted to Be God was such a superb song.
Hardly weak, Swervedriver were excellent...

Here's some more Swervedriver playing live. They probably influenced grunge too. They are a very underrated band.
