Richey Edwards
Richey Edwards is the mystic lyricist/guitarist for Manic Street Preachers. Booming out of Blackwood Wales in the late 1980s, his fierce intellect powered the band's first three albums, setting them apart from the rest of their generation.
When their third album - the dark masterpiece The Holy Bible - was released - Richie was lost in a self-destructive world, battling self-mutilation, alcoholism and an obsession with the concept of perfect disappearance.
On February 1, 1995, he left his hotel room in London and was never seen or heard from again. His family has been trying to find his whereabouts for 25 years. None are coming.
