90s indie icon is unrecognisable as he looks back on touring with Oasis including wild concerts at Knebworth, Maine Road and the US - but can you guess who it is?


Their group's hits included If You Tolerate This Your Children Will Be Next and The Masses Against The Classes, both of which made it to the top of the UK singles charts.

In conversation with Chris, the lyricist and guitarist joined lead singer James Dean Bradfield in reflecting on travelling around with the Gallagher brothers as they opened for Oasis at some of their biggest 90s shows. It proved something of a high point for the group as they ended up getting a front row seat for an iconic tour, albeit one that Liam Gallagher missed as he was moving house. Nicky, better known for his guitar work, will provide the lead vocals on a Manic Street Preachers track for the first time ahead of their 15th studio album, titled Critical Thinking, which is due for release this year.
