Resistance Is Futile

Resistance Is Futile is the Manic Street Preachers' thirteenth studio album and heralds a return to the bands classic sound.

Of their first new recordings in four years, the band said: "The main themes of Resistance is Futile are memory and loss; forgotten history; confused reality and art as a hiding place and inspiration. It’s obsessively melodic - in many ways referencing both the naive energy of Generation Terrorists and the orchestral sweep of Everything Must Go. After delays and difficulties getting started, the record has come together really quickly over the last few months through a surge of creativity and some old school hard work."
