lately I came to realize that Super Furry Animals are my favorite band. I got Pitchfork, Spin and NME backing me up. the only thing I need to decide on which album is the best.
Check out the exclusive rockfeedback session and interview with Neon Neon (with special guest Har Mar Superstar), the band formed by Super Furries frontman Gruff Rhys and producer Boom Bip.
The song is more powerful without the video. Not because the video is tongue in cheek.. I just think some songs are better left to paint their own pictures in your mind. Is this video a nod towards Serge Gainsbourg's 'Melody' video? (check it out!) .. and that video is really effective!!!! (i think!)
Kill the furries! Drive them to the oceans, and drown their young! Impale them on fallen branches tipped with obsidian! Tie up their hands and feet, set fire to their faces, and let them slowly sink in quicksand! Smash their hands and feet, then lock them in a cage full of hungry, angry pigs! Create a huge beef grinder, then feed them through, slowly, feet-first! Shove thermite up their asses! Grease them up, and shove them down the throats of whales! Skin them alive then kill 'em all with fire!
I have this song on my IPod from when it first came out and at the time I remember thinking what a stupid video. Now that I've become a fan of The IT Crowd I get it and also realize Matt Berry is NOT the lead singer of Super Furry Animals. I've now set the oven on gas mark egg on my face..........
I have this song/video on my IPod from when it came out. I didn't get it back then. Now after becoming a fan of The IT Crowd and (at first) thinking, "Wow, he's the lead singer of Super Furry Animals!", just now I finally get this video. Thanks.
@garbage63 Check my sources? the album Hey Venus that this song is taken from was released in August 07. there's no sources to check, just a basic understanding of the concept of time.
Matt Berry of darkplace, the mighty boosh, snuff box, AD/BC a rock opera, is the star of it yes. It also directed by richard ayoade who played dean learner on darkplace, as well as Maurice Moss on the IT crowd, AND saboo in the mighty boosh.
that guy's face is sort of what it looks like when you scrunch a dog's forehead down with your thumb so that it looks mad. or maybe that's just my dog. anyway he's sort of ugly
It's the close harmonies that do it. But they sound even more so in their earlier albums: try Radiator or Guerrilla for neat slices of electro-Beach pop.
Gruff Rhys is a big fan of Mr Merve. He will tell you himself. It's a mature animation series made for adults and children. check the series out on my channel.
He's saying "burns my middle". Although i think Gruff would prefer that name if you ever mentioned it to him! They have had crazier lines than 'burns my nipples' : ) in previous songs so i guess you were right in thinking what you thought! If that makes any sense!
Hard to say, The Man Don't Give A Fuck and Juxtapozed With U are probably their two most famous tunes in the UK. In America it is almost certainly Hello Sunshine.
