The band was founded in 1986 as a [[Music/TheClash Clash]]-influenced PunkRock outfit, but quickly moved in a more PostPunk direction before releasing their first EP, ''New Art Riot'', in 1990. Their debut album, ''Generation Terrorists'', was released in 1992 and sported a more mainstream, Music/GunsNRoses-influenced sound. In this period the band tried to attract more attention by going to the press and bashing a ton of their contemporaries, especially {{Shoegazing}} bands like Music/MyBloodyValentine and Music/{{Slowdive}} (who they called "[[GodwinsLaw worse than Hitler]]") and Madchester bands like the Music/HappyMondays and The Charlatans. This backfired on them badly and got them massive HypeBacklash and criticism that only worsened when Wire infamously declared during a Christmas concert the same year "In this season of goodwill, let’s pray that [[Music/{{REM}} Michael Stipe]] [[WhatTheHellHero goes the same way as]] Music/FreddieMercury [[DudeNotFunny pretty soon]].", but they managed to stay above the water with their DarkerAndEdgier {{Grunge}} album ''Gold Against the Soul''.
Tragically, the band's rhythm guitarist, lyricist and spokesman Richey James Edwards vanished in 1995, possibly over the side of the Severn Bridge, after a long history of depression and self harm. He was declared [[LegallyDead presumed deceased]] in 2008. His disappearance occurred less than a year after the release of the controversial but critically acclaimed release, ''The Holy Bible'', a noisy, angst-ridden collection of tracks dealing with such [[SarcasmMode lighthearted topics]] as prostitution, the Holocaust and eating disorders.
The band achieved mainstream success in 1996 with ''Everything Must Go'', with a grandiose sound in many ways reminiscent of the {{Britpop}} movement popular at the time. The followup album, ''This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours'', had a similar sound and enjoyed similar success. Their later releases have tended to be more polarising, but all have been successful, to varying degrees.
The Manics' songs are characterised by highly political, often confrontational lyrics and bleak, at times nihilistic themes, as well as diverse cultural references ranging from Vincent van Gogh to Marilyn Manson to Creator/SylviaPlath. They were notably the first popular Western rock musicians to play in UsefulNotes/{{Cuba}}. In their native UK, they have had two number one singles, "If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next" and "The Masses Against the Classes".
