Re: super furry animals
Well I must be in the 3rd camp who love Radiator and Rings Around The World most. Must get Guerrilla onto my mp3 player as I haven't listened to it in ages. I think I thought some of that album was a bit gimicky but now I think about it, it certainly contains some of the band's most poppy tunes. Particularly The Teacher and Keep The Cosmic Trigger Happy. Actually, perhaps the real reason I don't listen to this album is because it reminds me of when I worked at Vodafone and that was a really shit time.

Can't believe I forgot to mention Ice Hockey Hair. I swear I was on the brink of tears hearing this at Reading 98. What a fucking song. And The Man Don't Give A Fuck. Brilliant. I've now got an urge to listen to all my SFA records back to back.

Really don't know what I think of the new album yet. Disappointed at the lack of a single immediate poppy track. Think it's going to need a few listens to fully appreciate this one. Definitely sounds like an album though rather than a just collection of songs/singles.

Seeing them again tomorrow night. Think I've got my excited pants on already.
