Like all the other members of the Manic Street Preachers, Edwards grew up in Blackwood in Wales. \u00a0He was initially the driver and roadie for the band but his way with words saw him become their main spokesman, and then their lyricist. \u00a0He was never particularly talented as a musician, but his input with words and design were integral to the Manics early success. \u00a0He gained notoriety when during an interview with NME journalist Steve Lamacq he answered a question by cutting \u20184Real\u2019 into his forearm with a razor blade. \u00a0Bleeding profusely, he was rushed to hospital and needed 18 stitches in the wound. \u00a0The incident propelled the band into mainstream consciousness in the UK.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Edwards suffered from depression and alcohol dependency. \u00a0He had to miss promotional appearances and even the Reading Festival because of being in rehab at The Priory \u00a0Meaning the band had to appear as a three piece for the first time. He disappeared on 1 February 1995 and has never been seen since, despite repeated appeals. \u00a0There are some who think he is still alive and just hiding.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
