It's always good to read others opinions and views..We have gathered together a collection of quotes for you from the latest reviews of Nicky Wires Album "I Killed the Zeigeist"
"A delicate mix of ragged art punk and romantic poetry"
John Harris, The Guardian
"Bitter and brave... its maker's anti-everything stance makes it a
future cult gem"
Garry Mulholland, Q
"Patches into the same post-punk grid as Pixies and Psychedelic Furs
to surprisingly vital effect"
Sharon O'Connell, Uncut
"Playing C86 Hyde to Bradfield's stadium Jekyll... I Killed The
Zeitgeist is inventive, sparky, imaginative and - like his bandmate's
The Great Western - bodes very well for a revivified Manic Street
Preachers."
David Quantick, Word
"The lack of frills add a nihilistic edge... Wire's words transcend
the odd mix of spoken-word intors, graceful rock guitars and eccentric
post punk rhythms." Betty Clarke, The Guardian "Impressively unpolished, this collection possesses quirky charm."
Steve Jelbert, The Times
"So this vanity project not only surpasses expectation, it's actually
ace. Best Manics album since Everything Must Go? Possibly." Tom
Pinnock, NME
