Welsh legends the Manic Street Preachers release their new album 'Futurology' on July 7. Taken from it, here is the new single, which comes with a video directed by Keiran Evans. The insistently catchy 'Walk Me To The Bridge' certainly seems to have more life than the melancholic, rather languid 'Rewind The Film' album from last year. It's also references the disappearance of former lyricist Richey Edwards more explicitly than any other moment in the Manic back catalogue, and comes imbued with 80's rock bombast as well as a momentous European vibe that recalls Bowie's Berlin years. According to the press release ‘Futurology’ is “Furious, propulsive and expansive, ‘Futurology’ is the sound of the Manics at their very best – a record inspired by permanent revolution, modern art and Autobahns.” Special guests include Green Gartside (Scritti Politti), Welsh Music Prize 2013 winner Georgia Ruth, Cian Ciarán (Super Furry Animals) and German film star Nina Hoss."old songs leave long shadows..."
