Super Furry Animals for the Olympia
With a new album set for August release, SFA have announced an intimate date at the Dublin Olympia
The Hot Press Newsdesk, 03 Jun 2005
Super Furry Animals are giving fans plenty of notice that they’re coming over on September 27 for a show in the Olympia.
The show is in support of Love Kraft, their new album which hits the racks on August 22.
Before that comes a July 10 visit to Oxegen, which signals the end of the yeti suits and the debut of a new look that Gruff describes as: “Post-robots. It’s very futuristic, whereas the robot is history.”
We’re all tingly with excitement!

The Welsh wonders are back with some more madcap behaviour. ‘Lazer Beam’ is full of the infectious hooks, random sounds and innovative thinking we’ve come to associate with them, but presented in an understated manner this time. As a taster for the much-anticipated Love Kraft LP, it confirms that their quirky sounds have been sorely missed, even though their seat’s been kept warm by the Scissor Sisters. They can go home now.

Many of these gorgeous songs, which are steeped in mournful pedal steel (especially the thematically representative ‘Sex, War and Robots’) and couched in intricate arrangements, deal directly with broken relationships and war.

Whatever is said about them, no one can level the accusation that Super Furry Animals are one-trick ponies. These Welsh rare bits are capable of following the most glorious pop moments with a large dollop of techno, drum 'n' bass and whatever you're having yourself, bosco.
