Die Super Furry Animals (auch SFA oder die Furries) sind eine Band aus Wales, die sich musikalisch nur schwer einordnen lässt. Sie verbindet auf einzigartige Weise so unterschiedliche Stile wie Britpop, Glam Rock, Westcoast Rock, Punk, Prog Rock, Techno, Dub, Drum’n’Bass, Country, Psychedelia, P-Funk, Soul und Heavy Metal. Die Band hatte mehrere Erfolge in den Top 20 der britischen Album- und Single-Charts. Eine gewissen Ruhm erspielte sich die Band auch mit der limitierten Single The Man Don’t Give a Fuck, die über fünfzigmal das Wort Fuck enthielt.
Die Band wurde 1994 von den Mitgliedern Dafydd Ieuan, Gruff Rhys, Guto Pryce, Huw Bunford und Cian Ciaran in Cardiff gegründet. Die ersten drei hatten vorher bereits in einem Electro-Projekt Wales betourt.
Nach den ersten Veröffentlichungen entdeckte sie Alan McGee, der Chef von Creation Records bei einem Auftritt in London, dem zweiten Auftritt außerhalb von Wales, den die Band überhaupt hatte. Die Band stand neuen Technologien stets aufgeschlossen gegenüber. Sie war eine der ersten überhaupt, die ein Konzert im Internet übertrug und die erste, die ein Album gleichzeitig im Audio- und DVD-Format veröffentlichte.

I also think he has the most distinguished look of anyone in the band at the moment. That graying beard is awesome.

Juxtapozed... Maybe Walk You Home. I really like his bass on Drawing Rings Around the World and Moped Eyes, of course.

Alright then, in honour of Guto, what Furries song has the best bass in it?

And his hand looks like a centipede effortlessly moving up and down the neck.

Who sings "Never More," Daf? Maybe Guto does secret vocals on tracks. I know he did the weird noises on "Tradewinds." He's a really nice guy. I like giving him credit. Really, how often do you hear about SFA's basslines? And it's not cuz I'm just being weird... I hear his stuff, and I love it.

Gruff's voice is more assertive than Cian's, because I'd like to think of it as Cian just assisting in the background as well.

GodShowMeMagic schrieb:
And I repeat my assertion on the board; Guto IS God.

GodShowMeMagic schrieb:
Yeah, I tend to think of Download as a Gruff-vocaled song backed by Cian, but that just shows my Gruff bias :-) It's a duet really. What I was talking about was the first time you hear any of the others sing lead on their own. Which I reckon would be Chewing Chewing Gum right? (Well, not exactly lead but they're definitely not backing vocals.) That's a great song to try and identify their voices... The deep voice on 'Walk You Home' I would say is definitely Daf. At the same time in the backing vocals Gruff is doing a falsetto and seems to be panned more to the left I think. Gawd, I know all the technical terms ;-)

Exactly.

I just listened to Download and Cian's vocals are hard panned to the left and Gruff's to the right.

hotterthanjuly schrieb:
Agreed. So it shouldn't be so much a surprise that people have said that about the three albums I mentioned earlier, especially when Sean O'Hagan was basically the unofficial member at that point. But yeah, SFA culls its influences from other directions as well. Calling them modern-day Beatles is pretty safe, but more than a little lazy. But at the same time, they sound most like themselves. They are able to blend more divergent sounds better than nearly any other band I've listened to extensively, which is no easy task. They've created their own sound.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPPq_Cdarig&feature=related. There's no way one can listen to this and not hear "Atomik Lust." You can also hear traces of "Ohio Heat." The sounds from Love Kraft aren't derivative, but they are definitely accentuated from Surf's Up.
-
sdl1986 schrieb:
No, I know about stuff like that. But their influences are manifold. I don't think that The Beach Boys are their only antecedent. Any band that works in complex pop music is going to be influenced by Brian Wilson's compositions. The High Llamas, who work closely with SFA, are much more Beach Boys derivative.
-
hotterthanjuly schrieb:
It's not the music, it's the harmonies. The influence is so obvious. But there are songs from Love Kraft that undeniably sound inspired by The Beach Boys' Surf's Up, which is reportedly the band's favorite album, and Dennis Wilson's Pacific Ocean Blue.
-
sdl1986 schrieb:
They really don't sound anything like The Beach Boys. I'm a huge fan. I wouldn't be ashamed to admit it if they did. There's MUCH more derivative bands out there. Cian kind of reminds me of Dennis Wilson, though.
-
hotterthanjuly schrieb:
Yeah, definitely Cian in "Download." HIs voice sounds especially younger, understandable considering he was only around 21 when Radiator was released.
-
hotterthanjuly schrieb:
I find it odd that some people have worried about SFA turning into a Beach Boys tribute band the last few albums, particularly Phantom Power, Love Kraft and Hey Venus! There is just as much of that influence to be found on Radiator and no one said anything then.

His movie premieres tonight. I can't wait to hear about it...

hotterthanjuly schrieb:
Thanks for the new Gruff track. I'll be sure to check it out later.

sdl1986 schrieb:
Those "other" vocals are part of the band's appeal to me. I always feel like there's something buried a little deeper that I'm not going to hear until I pay closer attention. I seriously didn't even hear some of the harmonies on Phantom Power for the longest time. I think one of my favorite things on Phantom Power are those "ahhhh ahhhh ahhhhhhs" in Venus and Serena that almost sound like they're reversed. SFA are definitely studio experts. That's probably where a lot of the techno background steps in aside from the obvious electronic tracks.
