About this item
The Welsh psychedelic pop legends return with "Dark Days/Light Years", their ninth studio album, a glorious technicolour journey into the mind of Super Furry Animals, jam packed into 59 minutes of acidic pop genius. Where previous albums have seen the band experiment with extra instrumentation, this release is full of songs based on grooves rather than ensemble composition. The band's impish sense of humour remains, though, with track titles such as "The Very Best Of Neil Diamond" and "Moped Eyes" standing out. Also notable is Franz Ferdinand guitarist Nick McCarthy's guest appearance on the Kraftwerk-inspired "Inaugural Trams", performing a German-language rap. In keeping with more recent albums, the band also share lead vocal duties between several members.
