Everything Must Go

by Manic Street Preachers

The 821st greatest album of all time

Everything Must Go (1996) is an album by Manic Street Preachers that marked a shift toward a more melodic, anthemic alternative rock sound following the disappearance of lyricist Richey Edwards. The record pairs sweeping guitars and occasional orchestral touches with politically charged and personal lyrics, featuring songs such as A Design for Life, Everything Must Go, and Kevin Carter, and represents a clear stylistic turning point for the band.
