Additional InformationJust as the Manics were being hailed as the potential "next big thing," the band was thrown into disarray, and as a result, this credible album was somewhat overlooked while the world searched for Richey James.

Reviews4 Stars Out of 5-"With the Passing of Time, the Holy Bible Makes Even more Sense...", 4 stars out of 5 - "Richey dominates lyrically, combining insectoid self-loathing and snarling self-respect with rare intellectual intensity.", "...Their Masterpiece...", Ranked #10 in Q's "Best 50 Albums of Q's Lifetime", Ranked #81 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Lo-fi recording ethics, lyrics of terrifying self-evisceration, driven by savage skeletal meta-punk.", 3 Stars (out of 5) - "...the tone of the album is by turns bleak, angry and resigned, marked by Richey Edwards's confessional Sylvia Plath-isms...Moving, but not easy, listening.", Included in Q's "50 Heaviest Albums of All Time".
