The Holy Bible (Pt. 1)

Season 1: Do You Love Us? (Manic Street Preachers)

The Big Mates are in a somber mood as they discuss how the sausage is made, serial killers, mental health, and The Holy Bible by Manic Street Preachers.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas cover the first half of the infamously bleak and intense third Manics album. They cover everything from recording history, artwork, a deep-dive on the lyrics, and their views on the dark masterpiece. Can they work out what Revol is about? Can you count how many sighs you hear? IS THIS EPISODE AS FUN AS IT SOUNDS? Find out on this episode of Do You Love Us?
