Well, we've all been ranting about bands we hate... i thought I'd put in a rave for a band I love
These guys are amazing... their first album in particular still blows me away every time I listen to it

Tue, January 3, 2006 - 7:50 PMTHANK YOU!
I've been over the moon for these guys too, but I just can't seem to convince everyone their the most innovative rock band currently on the planet. Seriously. I think I'm the only one here who put "Love Kraft" on their "Best of 2005" list. How is it everyone love Sufjan but then misses the SFA?!? -

Sat, January 7, 2006 - 3:11 PMI didn't think much of them until "Rings Around The World" which completely blew me away. I thought it was like the other book end companion to Flaming Lips' "Yoshimi....". A psychedelic masterpiece, comfortably fitting an eclectic mix of sound into a solid musical whole.
Unfortunately, "Phantom Power" didn't do that much for me.

Re: The Super Furry Animals
Sun, January 8, 2006 - 10:05 PMJust saw them for the first time ever after being a huge fan for years...needless to say, mindblowing. "Run Christian Run" live? SHIVERS UP AND DOWN MY SPINE!
I'd give Radiator, Rings Around The World and Phantom Power votes for their absolute best, as they're some of the best UK-guitar-pop albums ever, though Guerrilla is pretty good too, albeit less depthful. Love Kraft is really my least favorite of all their albums, maybe even less so than the so-so MWNG. It just seems to me that their settling into some kind of shtick, or at least on the verge of perhaps doing so...it lacks the vitality of their other albums for me. Live, the least interesting songs, aside from "Zoom," were all from Love Kraft.
Also, for those who haven't yet appreciated the utter majesty of Phantom Power, give it time. I was disappointed at first too, but even though it's the sublest of their albums, it's evenly as masterful and even more carefully created. "Slow Life" may be the best thing they ever recorded. Give it time to grow on you. -

Tue, January 10, 2006 - 3:00 PMMe? I am absolutely ga-ga over the top in love with the guy's voice... it really makes my ears tingle purrrrfection
not sure what it is about it, probably some weird frequency vibration that just happens to resonate perfectly with my ears or something LOL -
