Os Manic Street Preachers são uma banda formada no País de Gales por volta do ano de 1989 em Blackwood. Os amigos de escola James Dean Bradfield (vocais e guitarras), Nicky Wire (baixo) e Sean Moore (bateria) decidiram pelo nome de Betty Blue (titulo em inglês do filme 37°2 le matin de Jean-Jacques Beineix estrelado por Béatrice Dalle no papel de Betty.), mas antes mesmo de lançar o primeiro single, o trio adotou Manic Street Preachers.

Life Becoming A Landslide -------------------------
This song was recorded by the Manic Street Preachers in 1992. It is from the album "Gold Against The Soul".
Music by James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore Lyrics by Richey James and Nicky Wire Tabbed by Matt Nicholls
Verse 1 ------- During this the classical guitars plays along with the singer with various little bits added on. It goes something likes this (repeat x4):
E-----------------------------5-5--3-1-- B-3--1-3-6-5--5-6-5-3-1----------------- G-----------------------3-2-3----------- D--------------------------------------- A--------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------- (Add a few steps inbetween notes and experiment with a few hammer-ons and pull-offs)
Childbirth tears upon her muscles Very first, second a screaming icon Babies in time barely even recognise Words that once stroked now bruising tired lips
Bridge (Let chords ring) ----------------------- DmC My idea of love comes from BbC A childhood glimpse of pornography DmC Though there is no true love BbC Just a finely tuned jealousy
Chorus ------ CFDm Life becoming a landslide BbC Ice freezing, nature dead FDm Life becoming a landslide BbC I don't wanna be a man
Verse 2 -------- Here the guitars and bass come in heavy, playing something likes this
E---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-8-7---7-8-5-3---1-0-1-12-8
Everyday more numb to agony This the howl, this the sigh of the lonely One day I realise oil on canvas Can never paint a petal oh so delicate
Bridge ------ Let chords ring as before
Chorus ------ Repeat the chorus twice
Instrumental Verse ------------------
Second Chorus ------------- Same chords as first chorus
Life becoming a landslide A mile empty inside Life becoming a landslide Desire on its knees
