WRITHING WITH HATRED Here you will find mostly Morrissey, The Smiths, Manic Street Preachers, and Nirvana. Pop punk and corporate music ruined my life. Do you hate me yet?
I don’t usually reblog shops/merch, but this one is amazing!!!
U.S. Based Manics Fan Shop!!!
Manic Aesthetics
“I decided to start a small business for Manics fans such as myself, as I found that there was a lack of fun, quirky merchandise. Therefore I began designing my own… any true fan can tell you that this band has changed their lives in some way or another. ” Tesla Kelly, owner
FINALLY, high-quality, affordable Manics merchandise is just a few clicks away! Manic Aesthetics is owned and operated by U.S. based Manic Street Preachers fanatic, Tesla Kelley. She is very kind and pleasant to speak with, and she ships items out quickly. The Nicky pin was my first purchase, and I was extremely pleased! So, when I saw that a pre-order promo was being offered, I went for the James, MSP, and Culture Slut pins. Everything is high-quality, even the free CCCP and Culture Slut stickers that were included with the pre-order!
Purchases are placed through the Manic Aesthetics shop on Etsy. Shipping is available world-wide. For those wanting to save on shipping, I recommend ordering your items with a friend! The shop is currently offering 15% off your order when you buy 2 items.

“Now I can look at you in peace; I don’t eat you anymore.”
— Franz Kafka
Kafka had an agreement with his sister Ottla, that if doctors would force him to eat meat, she would be a vegetarian instead of him. Ottla kept that promise even after Kafka’s death and remained vegetarian until her death in a concentration camp.
Now gather round children , this is the tale of Saint Nicky the Rabbit. To all the good little folks he brings them crisps (He does so begrudgingly) and freedom from the capitalist monarchy. For the bad he dooms their music to fail and speaks badly of them in interviews.
“You know us as a band, we’ve always felt a duty to pass on things that we think are more interesting than we are. From ‘Kevin Carter’ to ‘Let Robeson Sing’, it’s a part of who we are. ‘Interiors’ was about Willem de Kooning, Richey had endless reference points. We’ve always had that desire to pass on. We’re always seen as quite a negative, po-faced band, but we’re not. It’s just been about passing on our love of our inspiration.” - Nicky Wire, February 19th, 2018
