Manic Street Preachers to release Richey Edwards-written album

The new album is set to be released next Spring

I don't think it can be seen as cashing in on Richey as they've sold more records without him anyway. The last album was a bigger success than The Holy Bible ever was.They are generally better as songwriters and musicians now than they were on the first three albums. It's mainly the MOR production and dull lyrics about Dysons and stuff that have let them down, so this has the potential to be the best Manics album. Which is unfortunate, really, as it puts a Chinese Deomcracy-style pressure on them to deliver the goods.
