Ahead of the 10th Anniversary Vinyl Re-Issue of Everything Everything's "Man Alive" we celebrate the bands stunning debut album with a special XS Long Player.

Jim Salveson had a good old chinwag with Jeremy and Jonathan from the band about an album that broke the mould when it was released back in 2010. They talk Beyonce-esq influences, pre-release expectations and how the album feels now over a decade after its release.
