The Big Mates discuss Instagram, Summer Heart, Batman Forever, and The Ultra Vivid Lament by Manic Street Preachers.
Adam, Steve, and Lucas focus on their track-by-track deep-dive into the Manics' fourteenth album, giving musical analysis, discussing the lyrics, themes, their takes and opinions and everything inbetween! Do the Manics still surprise us, fourteen albums in? What doesn't this album sound like? What makes a song sound nostalgic? Find out on this episode of What Is Music?
Make sure you have all the context for this album by listening to last week's episode - an interview with Dave Eringa, the producer of The Ultra Vivid Lament!
Next week we begin another season of the podcast by introducing you to the artist we'll be covering. Be sure to join us on April 11th!
You can now wear your fandom on your (literal) sleeve!
