Album Info

Release Date: 2020-12-17

Label: Heavenly

Spectators of Suicide was originally recorded for Manic Street Preachers 1991 EP You Love Us, their last release for Heavenly Recordings. Although they only recorded seven tracks for the label, the band have always acknowledged Heavenly’s role in their evolution from Valleys punk rock anomalies to most talked about band in Britain in the space of seven months. Spectators was the first time the Manics stretched out, slowed down and showed they were capable of so much more than glorious, visceral rock’n’roll. Following Motown Junk, Spectators of Suicide was Manic Street Preachers' next step to greatness.

This new version of Spectators of Suicide was recorded to coincide with the publication of Believe In Magic: The First Thirty Years of Heavenly Recordings.
It was produced at Door to the River Studios
