Parlophone to release Mansun best of next month; details here.
Mansun's previously announced best of is to be released by Parlophone next month - September 18th to be exact.
Available on CD, special edition CD/DVD and download, the compilation has been assembled by Paul Draper and Dominic Chad over the past few months. The DVD features all 16 of Mansun's promo videos, plus a documentary, seemingly lost 'Super-8' footage and a live recording of 'Taxloss' from the Brixton Academy in 1998.
I decree that Mansun are one of the greatest bands this country has ever produced and if you have never made the effort to listen to them before, not only are you a complete dick, but you are now required by law to purchase this best of.
