Album Release Update
The new album, Manic Street Preachers’ “Critical Thinking,” appears to have postponed its release. The upcoming record, initially scheduled for launch on January 31, is now confirmed to be released on February 14, according to advertising posters. Earlier posters indicated a release date of February 7.
Fan Reactions
Fans commenting on Facebook have noted the delay and shared their perspectives. One user remarked, “Merry Christmas at this speed,” while another added, “Manics fans can be so negative. We are all excited about a new album, but this is clearly pushed back for a reason; this happens. Just be supportive, not moan.”
Despite the delay of “Critical Thinking,” Manic Street Preachers will still release their new song “Brushstrokes of Reunion” on Friday, January 31, the original release date for the entire record.
