Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible (Remastered)
Limited heavyweight vinyl LP pressing. The Holy Bible is the third studio album by Welsh alt-rock band Manic Street Preachers, originally released in 1994.
At the time the album was written and recorded, lyricist and rhythm guitarist Richey Edwards was struggling with severe depression, alcohol abuse, self-harm and anorexia nervosa, and it's contents are considered by many sources to reflect his mental state. The songs focus on themes relating to politics and human suffering. The Holy Bible was the band's last album released before Edwards' disappearance on February 1, 1995.
Although it reached #6 on the UK Albums Chart, global sales were disappointing compared to previous albums and the record did not chart in mainland Europe or North America. It was promoted with tours and festival appearances in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Portugal, the Netherlands and Thailand - in part without Edwards. The Holy Bible has received significant critical acclaim and as of 2014 it has sold more than 600, 000 copies worldwide. The album over the years following it's release has been ranked highly on lists of the best albums ever by British publications such as Melody Maker, NME and Q.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
