Another Manics fan in the family?

I have always admired the MANIC STREET PREACHERS.
The Welsh band can wed catchy, punk-influenced tunes with thoughtful lyrics, and they remain one of the few bands for which no song topics are off limits.
The Spanish Civil War, the Holocaust, anorexia, depression, maltreated zoo animals and the last words of Vincent Van Gogh have all made appearances in the Manics' songs.
KERSTIN and I listened to the band's under-appreciated sophomore album, "GOLD AGAINST THE SOUL," en route to her driver's education class this morning.
Lines such as "White liberal hates slavery/Needs Thai labour to clean his home" don't appear on the lyric sheets of many other bands.
Kerstin seemed to like the album, too. There might be another Manic Street Preachers fan in the family.
