Super Furry Animals

About the artist

Super Furry Animals were one of the first post-alternative bands, fusing together a number of disparate musical genres (including power pop, punk rock, techno, and progressive rock) to create shimmering, melodic, irreverent, and willfully artsy music. As one of the leading bands of the mid-'90s Welsh movement, they were already tagged as outsiders by their tendency to sing entire songs in their native tongue, but their very approach has remained unique, full of both whimsy and left-wing political activism.
