This is Super Furry Animals ninth album, if I counted correctly. And the band certainly has an up and down career through the years. Their new album is very digitally and my thoughts goes actually a lot to bands like the Buggles, but with very much more psychadelia mixed into the soundscape. There are a few real pearls on the disc such as the opening track "Crazy Naked Girl" and the very Buggles-fragrant "Inaugural Times" to name two. It becomes too much psychadelia for my taste over a couple of tunes though. They are probably very nice if you smoke weed or something but I don´t (And I hope you don´t do that either..), so they don´t give me that much. But the main part is good for us who like electronica-pop with an indie edge.
