Nicky Wire with Manic Street Preachers at Y Not Festival 2022 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
It follows Nicky Wire’s 2006 record ‘I Killed The Zeitgeist’.
Nicky Wire has released his new solo album Intimism to Bandcamp.
“This record is a collage pieced together over the last decade,” the Manic Street Preachers bass player said.
It’s as me as me can be – a distillation of my purest indie fantasies, a place where all those broken lists of regret have found themselves realigned. I found a musical and lyrical language I could call my own. A landscape of mundane miracles, interior monologues and lacerating self loathing. As the song says: ‘I am an -ist / I am an -ism / a lifelong affair with tunnel vision’.
