Super Furry Animals haven't been on hiatus for three years now, but everyone in the band has been making music. Just this past week, Cian and Guto have put out songs from their own side projects. Here's Cian Ciaran's "You & Me" off his upcoming solo release, Outside In: http://soundcloud.com/strangetown-records/sets/cian-ciaran-1/ And for something a bit different, here's Guto's band Gulp, which is the least SFA-like of all the new bands: http://soundcloud.com/e-l-k-1/gulp-game-love I'm seeing Beach House in Miami Beach tomorrow night. I'm not a fan by any means, but my girlfriend really wanted to go. I hope they win me over. I'm not imagining an impressive live show, but we'll see. Out of all the cities in which I've lived, Miami and the surrounding areas have been the pits for live music. I take what I can get.

If you like/love Super Furry Animals, listen to Cian Ciaran's Outside In. He's SFA's keyboard player and he sings songs like "Cabin Fever," "Walk You Home" and "Mountain." I can't get enough of the album. It's the next best thing to an actual SFA album or another Gruff solo LP. He's also got another one coming early next year, so I've got that to look forward to.

Epi Lepi posted:Did SFA break up? I know they haven't had an album since 2009 and they've all had a bunch of solo stuff but are they active as a band at all anymore? They aren't broken up, but they're definitely on hiatus. The thing is they're still all working with each other on their own individual projects. Both Guto and Daf play on Cian's album and Cian mixed songs for Guto's new band, Gulp. Gruff and Bunf are the two who've kind of gone their own way for now. Gruff is working on a second film in America at the moment and Bunf is doing all sorts of stuff that hasn't amounted to anything yet, but he's supposedly releasing a solo album on Daf & Cian's label someday. Hopefully they get back together soon, but I'd be surprised if they have an album out before 2015.

lil mortimer posted:https://vimeo.com/58047877 Neon Neon is playing instrumentals from the new album tonight and it's being streamed live here: http://roundhouse.org.uk/live The description mentions "special guests," so I figure it'll be more than instrumentals. Anyway, it's at 9:30 PM GMT. Neon Neon is Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals and Boom Bip, so it's worth checking out. They've also got Josh Klinghoffer in their band. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing, but apparently he was responsible for "Steel Your Girl" on the first one--so I'll say good thing for now.

Otherwise, you can buy it online/in stores on the 25th. His first album is marvelous and I expect this to follow suit. He's in Super Furry Animals, but it seems like people only care about Gruff Rhys's solo albums/side projects. I recommend you seek out Cian's first one if you haven't.

Super Furry Animals' lead guitarist has a new album streaming today: https://soundcloud.com/strangetown-records/sets/the-pale-blue-dots-lots-of/s-eSrBc Musically, it's probably the most SFA-sounding thing that's come out of their hiatus aside from his vocals, which sound nothing like Gruff's.

S4C just released a documentary about Super Furry Animals, who are about to play their first show in six years in three days. It contains lots of old footage I'd never seen before and does a great job presenting the band's philosophy as well as making you realize just how underrated they are. The band narrates in Welsh, but there are English subtitles. http://bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p02p1tgh/super-furry-animals turnip kid fucked around with this message at 22:47 on Apr 25, 2015 |

Gwenno (she was in The Pipettes, even after they turned into a different group) just re-released her album Y Dydd Olaf on Heavenly Recordings. It originally came out at the end of 2014 on a small Welsh label called Peski. The album is insanely awesome: atmospheric, Krautrocky, and entirely sung in Welsh--I think the final song might actually be in Cornish--without a single trace of the group that made her "famous." That's a good thing. I never liked The Pipettes. You'd never know she was in The Pipettes if I hadn't told you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CldPv3-VHmM I can't get over how good it is. Give it a shot. Almost everyone I've suggested it to loves it.

REALTHEWILL posted:I tried posting this in the Metal forum, but they didn't seem to like it. Maybe its more indie rock than metal. Hopefully the indie people like it a little more, can't stand so many hateful comments anymore. I would call it psychedelic rock but indie rock might be the closer term for it. Although produced its all recorded in a digital studio. If any of you know what an Orchestron is, you can hear it throughout the second half of the song. lmfao is this real it's so bad i can't stop laughing

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrqphXJZqS8 New H. Hawkline album, I Romanticize, came out on Friday. RIYL: Cate Le Bon. That's the closest comparison I can make. They play in each other's studio bands and rotate as frontman/frontwoman when playing their own sets together 'cuz their bands consist of the same people. She even produced his last two albums. I'm a fan of spindly, funky, fractured pop songs, and his new one is exactly that.

Super Furry Animals are reissuing a remastered version (remastered by Kliph Scurlock, the drummer that was recently kicked out of The Flaming Lips) of their CLASSIC album Radiator and just released one of the unreleased songs they're offering, a "cover" of The Smiths' 'The Boy With the Thorn in His Side." Apparently it was rejected by the magazine that commissioned the cover. I wonder why. https://soundcloud.com/salvolabel/sets/super-furry-animals-the-boy
