One of their best, and probably the best neo-psychedelia/alternative rock bits you were going to get at the time outside of acts like The Flaming Lips. Hell, I had a friend in the UK who often called Super Furry Animals as the Welsh Flaming Lips— not too off point. Take a listen, you won’t be disappointed.

Pretty great stuff. The Super Furries are one of the most consistent bands I can think of. Wouldn't take this ahead of Radiator, Guerrilla, or Love Kraft, but it is also home to two of my very favourite SFA songs in 'It's Not the End of the World?' and 'Juxtaposed with U'. Gowi's friend's Flaming Lips comparison is one I've made frequently over the years as well.

Hey Stone, can you upload the video here? That would be great to show my views on this band.

(I think I once heard half the album, too, but I don't remember anything from it)

That would imply you have any views on them.

I dunno, they were really fun to dance to by the end of the Pitchfork set I was at.
