27. Manic Street Preachers – Holy Bible (1994)


This album was written by as journal entries by Richey James Edwards in the months before he disappeared. The dark lyrics only hint at his mental state. I love music written by people with mental problems, the lyrics always seem to have a darker tone. Most of the songs on this album start or end with a spoken word clip, such as Faster which starts out with a voice saying “I hate purity, I hate goodness, I don’t want virtue to exist anywhere, I want everyone corrupt”. Faster, 4st, 7lbs, and This is Yesterday are my favorite tracks.
