Super Furry Animals

Super Furry Animals

The Super Furry Animals are a band out of Wales who have just released their sixth album.  The reviews are extrememly positive.  The BBC collective states the following. "This is an astonishing album that lives, breathes and grows. Go with it."

Why am I writing about the Super Furry Animals?  Because the name of their latest and by all account best album is Phantom Power.  Excuse me?  Did I say Phantom Power? Did they really name their latest disc Phantom Power?  Yes they did.

For Canadian rock fans, there will only be one Phantom Power.  It was released by The Tragically Hip in 1998 and contains the excellent "Bobcaygeon", "Fireworks", "Something On" and "Poets". The Super Furry Animals using the exact same name for their latest CD is sacrilege.
