THE Manics' last known scheduled live dates happened this week but there's more in the pipeline, the band's management has said.
Hall or Nothing say more live activity and Manics 'one-offs' will be announced in due course.
This week saw the release of the latest compilation made by the band. We've had the best of - now they've dug up the B-sides, cover versions and two previously unreleased tracks.
The compilation is called Lipstick Traces (A Secret History of Manic Street Preachers).
Lost song Judge Yr'self was the last written by the band as a four-piece before the disappearance of Richey Edwards.
It was intended for the appalling Sylvester Stalone movie Judge Dredd but never saw a release.
The other track from the archive is 4 Ever Delayed. The B-sides are for completists only but the covers disk, with versions of the likes of So Easy by Guns n'Roses, is worth a quick grin.
