Episode 4: This is My Truth & The Politics of Identity
Description
The Manic Street Preachers have conquered the charts with Everything Must Go, but Richey’s absence is now absolute, and Nicky Wire is holding the pen alone for the first time.
We look at the release of This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours — a record that swapped punk grit for widescreen melancholy, topped the charts, and made the Manics stadium kings.
From Welsh volunteers in the Spanish Civil War to barefoot bass takes in a creaky French château… from political fury in S.Y.M.M. to the unexpected tenderness of Born a Girl — we explore the stories, the recording sessions, the quotes, the critical reception, and the moment this band entered their imperial phase.
