Hello Sunshine – remixed by Freiband In August 2005, Super Furry Animals released their seventh studio effort, Love Kraft, recorded in Brazil. This represented a departure from their previous working methods: although all five members had always contributed to the development of the songs, Gruff had been the main songwriter. On Love Kraft this was no longer the case, as Gruff, Bunf, Daf and Cian all contributed songs and lead vocals. There was only one single from the album, "Lazer Beam", released on 15 August. Da Vinci would've been a fool to mess with Mona Lisa's smile and, although Phantom Phorce is an “alternative” version of last year's excellent Phantom Power, Wales' SFA aren't guilty of artistic sacrilege. Instead, Phantom Phorce is a showcase of top alt talent as everyone from human beatbox Killa Kela to Four Tet, Boom Bip to Wauvenfold, inject explosive beats and twitchy drama into the band's already fine tunes, flooding them with a crackling and vibrant new light. One for Furry fans and frazzled electronica buffs everywhere.-by Alexia Loundras BBC UK
