tuesday agenda: holy fuck, super furry animals
Super Furry Animals love you. The long lived Welsh psych-pop (whatever that means) love you so much that they opened the business of setlist selections to their most devoted fans [beggars]. We’ll have to wait and see what expansive melodies Seattle chose for Gruff Rhys and company to play along with technicolor projections. Will it be heavy with stuff from Phantom Power like “Hello Sunshine” (forever imprinted in the collective memories of a nation as the first time that we saw Summer Roberts with her shirt off? [salon] ), more difficult selections from deep in the back catalog, or fresh off the record shelves dreamy material like “Run-Away” [mp3] from this year’s Hey Venus!? I’m sure it will tell us a lot about ourselves. Opening is Holy Fuck whose free-wheeling, high-intensity indie electronics on headphones sound like what it feels like when you’re trying to spin a dozen plates and make computers do a whole bunch of awesome things at the same time. In person, it sounds like a post-future dance party. “Lovely Allen” [spinner,mp3], in particular, with its glorious major swells erupting from a glitchy mess sounds like the happiest of heavenly triumphs. I listened to it on the way to the Obama rally. $15, 8 pm. No costumes required. [neumos]
