Fans of Welsh rockers the Manic Street Preachers have been holding their breath for the arrival of the band's eighth studio album. Will Send Away the Tigers be evidence of another new musical twist? Might they revert to their old fiery ways? In fact, Send Away the Tigers does both. An intriguing blend of backwards-looking nostalgia and forward motion, fans might be pleased to learn, first of all, that the album features its fair share of anthems. "Your Love Alone Is Not Enough" (which features Cardigans singer Nina Persson), "Indian Summer," "Autumnsong," and "The Second Great Depression" all boast catchy choruses and are underpinned by the stadium-rock aesthetic of the good old days. The Manic's political fire also remains intact, shifting emphasis to the Iraq war with mediocre songs like "Imperial Bodybags," while the title track and "Rendition" indicate a slightly more innovative direction. It's no Holy Bible, nor a Generation Terrorists - but Send Away the Tigers does show the boys can still make a glorious racket when they try. --Danny McKenna

More than pleasant surprise
I had heard about the Manics but never listened to their music like many people in America.
I was more than pleasantly surprised at the quality of this band, this is a stunning album.

Send Away the Tigers
Send Away the Tigers is the 10th studio album for MSP and their 2007 release and recaptures a harder sound not heard on the albums prior to this one. The album received mixed reviews with Allmusic, NME and Digital Spy giving it positive reviews (4/5) whilst Rolling Stone, The Observer and The Guardian gave it 3/5. I tend to agree with the prior. I give this album 4/5 and it contains great tracks such as "Your Love Alone Is Not Enough", "Indian Summer" and "Autumnsong". The booklet is quite nice with some very nice photographs, all lyrics included but one does not get a list of whom plays what on the album. 4/5.

The Manics' latest is very good !
Good guitar-oriented, relevant songs played by a tight, focused trio.
They are not fantastic (like on "The Bible") right now but are still very relevant and very good.
