SFA ~ Songbook
Activity has been waning recently here, so I thought I'd throw out a few topics:
Super Furry Animals release a singles collection, at least in the UK, this week called "Songbook." I urge anyone who have never gotten into them to check this out. I firmly believe that they are one of the best current acts going. In addition, a 20 minute live version of The Man Don't Give A Fuck has also been recently released ... I suppose this is more for the hardcore fans (should be receiveing my copy soon).
If anyone has serious doubts about SFA and doesn't feel like purchasing the album, feel free to PM me ... I'm willing to burn a few SFA compiliations of my own for those who have a sincere interest.

Send me a PM with your address and I'll post you an SFA comp that'll be more than just their singles ... should prove a bit more interesting than Songbook (not that that isn't a good SFA comp by any means).

Re: SFA ~ Return
Surprisingly, this was the only thread here for the Super Furries but as I dislike multiple threads for the same band/topic i've decided to resurrect it for the news of SFA's return.
Mwng gets the deluxe treatment and a few gigs lined up for May, hopefully they'll decide to do more.

I can't wait to see them again, incredible live. Seen them twice, once in 97 supporting Blur and again on their last tour at Bangor University. So great.

Re: SFA ~ Songbook
Great news. Love Mwng. Have been missing them lately - American interior I thought was the first time they really needed to get the band back together. One of the all time greatest British bands imo.
There is a definite change of tact post songbook (vol 1 - will there ever be a vol 2?!). I actually prob prefer the latter day albums, but I know I'm in a minority on that.
Going to throw on Phantom Power (one of the few truly audacious anti-war albums of modern times) & play it loud.

Re: SFA ~ Songbook
If the reunion doesn't result in a new album, I'm going to be hugely disappointed. Better not get my hopes up too high, I suppose.
Re: SFA ~ Songbook
I dunno...they're all been off recording their own things for a while so it seems a good time to regroup and record something new. I know there's the re-release of Mwng, but i feel like getting the whole band together is so akin to aligning the stars that they'd be keen to make the most of it. about bloody time i say!TheWarmth wrote:If the reunion doesn't result in a new album, I'm going to be hugely disappointed.

Re: SFA ~ Songbook
I have all the albums (on cd) and i confess that they don't do a massive amount for me, I may swerve the rugby scrum for tickets on Wednesday as I have loads of gigs planned already and Mr Dots and Loops keeps adding more
The albums are fine and I don't dislike them, they just leave a me a bit non plussed. I listened to Radiator and Guerilla last night and the spark never ignited for me really

Das Koolies. They appear to be SFA minus Gruff. https://daskoolies.bandcamp.com/releases
