Our Take

Ah, the Super Furry Animals - a band whose music is as eclectic and colourful as their name suggests. Rings Around The World, their iconic album that turns 20 this year, has been given the remaster treatment and reissued for all us fans to bask in its glory once again.

From the opening track "Alternate Route to Vulcan Street," it's clear that the band's signature blend of psychedelic pop and electronic experimentation is as mesmerising as ever. The vocal harmonies and quirky lyrics transport you to a world where anything is possible - a world where even the most mundane moments feel like a cosmic journey.

Tracks like "Juxtapozed with U" and "It's Not the End of the World?" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend genres, from dreamy synth-pop to hard-hitting rock. It's a rollercoaster of sound that keeps you guessing and grooving from start to finish.

The 20th Anniversary Edition not only includes remastered versions of the original tracks, but also a whole host of bonus material that gives fans a deeper look into the band's creative process. From demos to live recordings, it's a treasure trove for die-hard fans and new listeners alike.

So, put on your headphones, close your eyes, and let Rings Around The World take you on a wild and whimsical ride. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
