Manic Street Preachers - Strip It Down (Promo video, remastered) video free download

WARNING: The cheap green screen background that constantly swirls in this video will probably cause seizures of some sort! Eek! The moral of this message? Don't use swirly, rotating backgrounds in your videos... ;)

(Slideshow at the start ends at 0:22)

There are a few clips of this very rare video floating around on YouTube, all of which were incomplete, and had bad audio. It seems the Manics would rather forget this slightly embarrassing, but funny early clip (bad miming, poor Sean not being allowed to hit his drums 0:44, Nicky Wire dropping his bass 1:39!)!

I'm assuming it was their very first promo video, maybe even self-financed... They're so young!

I've done my best to give you the whole song and the longest sections of the promo video that are out. Where there wasn't any video I substituted for some photos of the band from this era... I also had to chop in a tiny section from a black and white video where the colour one drops out badly! Surprised I got it to work!

Enjoy!
