Manic Street Preachers came roaring out of Cool Cymru movement in late 80s Cardiff (Wales) only to face an uphill battle with mental illness and rock n roll decadence. The boys welcome a special guest and talk about lyric-first songwriting, working class musicians' ethos, and the dark disappearance story of this band's de facto leader.
