Song title: Peeled Apples
Artist: Manic Street Preachers
Year: 2009
Why I like this song:
R.I.P. Steve Albini
I imagine the music world will be talking up his production skills, particularly with Nirvana, the Pixies, PJ Harvey and the Dirty Three. I however wish to call attention to his production on the Manic Street Preachers album Journal For Plague Lovers.
It certainly gave the Manics the bite that had been lacking since The Holy Bible and, given this was effectively a eulogy for Richey, was the Manics going all out.
And boy did it deliver.
