Following a series of phenomenal anniversary shows for ‘The Holy Bible’ and universal critical acclaim for their twelfth studio album (2014’s Futurology) — Manic Street Preachers have announced their biggest Welsh headline show ever… following their sold out concert at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff in 1999.
The band will play the Liberty Stadium in Swansea on Saturday 28th May 2016 – it will be a twentieth anniversary performance of their hugely successful fourth album ‘Everything Must Go.’
Manic Street Preachers will perform two sets at the stadium. The first half will see the band perform ‘Everything Must Go’ in full — the second promises rarities and curios, greatest hits and a few brand new songs.
The band is currently working with BAFTA winning director Kieran Evans (Kelly + Victor, Nowhere is Home) who they worked with on videos for their last two albums in order to create a new visual context for the show based around the album’s iconic artwork.
The concert promises to show off two eras of Manic Street Preachers at their creative peak — then and now.
