Best thing to come out of Wales since ............ well ever really.

Radiator = Best British album of the 90s

I'll have to disagree with your first statement, being born in Wales and all.

Second statment, hell yeah!! Crazy, catchy, cool, original, melodic,

I'll probably disagree with best album of the 90s once I've begun making my best albums of each year list but nothing better is jumping out at me. Someone's obviuosly gonna come along and say Ok Computer or Nevermind and every 90s cliched album under the sun. But most of them have probably never listened to Radiator. Yeah Nevermind and the Bends etc were amazing, and they've inflenced loads of other bands. But the thing about the SFA is they are impossible to immitate. And I love albums where every single track could be a single and this is one of them.

Demons, She's Got Spies, Play it Cool, Chupacabras, Mountain people, Hermann Loves Pauline... its genius. The music in download is beautiful melody, thats the best thing every song is totally different.

Well I love Radiohead , but Radiator has been played on my stereo much much more than OK Computer ever was.

And Nevermind wasn`t British

Sweet Jane · 01-02-2005, 09:03 PM

Jesus, how did i skip that... thats what I get for staying up staring at a computer screen past 2am, damn insomnia

Then insert Beck: Odelay, My Bloody Valentine: Loveless, Primal Scream: Screamadelica, Pulp: Common People, Stereolab: Emporer Tomato Ketchup, Aphex Twin: The Richard D James album, Belle and Sebastian, If you're feeling sinister etc ect where I said Nevermind.

Ok then

But Loveless is unlistenable bollocks

Sweet Jane · 01-02-2005, 09:17 PM

I don't care enough about My Bloody Valentine to argue but you know what I mean, someone will, everyone I know seems to wet themselves over it. Pulp are good contendors though

Urban Hat€monger ? · 01-02-2005, 09:26 PM

I don`t think I could choose between His n Hers or Different Class I love them both equally.

Oh and Modern Life Is Rubbish should be a contender too

Sweet Jane · 01-02-2005, 09:35 PM

Hmm... always preferred Pulp personally, I could take or leave Blur but I see your point

Urban Hat€monger ? · 09-05-2005, 08:12 AM

I`m gonna bump this because I got Love Kraft today.

Holy **** , i`ve waited about 8 years for the Super Furries to make a decent album.

Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you

Sweet Jane · 09-06-2005, 12:24 PM

My sentiments exactly. I wasn't so fussed with Rings Around The World or any of that, but this is beautiful stuff, back to the good old days.

OhioHeat is my new Autumn song. Cloudberries is a wee gem too. I love the way SFA make albums. Do you have a favourite song? It's one of those ones where any could become a single.
