It may seem hard to believe after nearly 30 years in the music business, but this week saw Manic Street Preachers finally make their US television debut. Check it out below.
The stadium-punk heroes have always enjoyed great success in the UK, Europe, Asia and beyond, topping the charts and headlining festivals such as Glastonbury over the last 25 years.
However, while they enjoy a strong cult following in the US, they've never really cracked the mainstream. This is down in part to very unfortunate timing. The band's former guitarist and lyricist Richey Edwards went missing on the eve of their US promo tour for The Holy Bible.
However, the band have finally taken the album to America - and are performing The Holy Bible in its entirety to Stateside fans. While there, the band made an appearance on the new TV show of fellow Brit James Corden to perform the Everything Must Go classic, 'A Design For Life'.
Watch the band perform 'A Design For Life' on the James Corden show below
