Super Furry Animals are taking to the road this winter with two of their classic albums, ‘Fuzzy Logic’ and ‘Radiator’.
The band will play their 1996 debut and its follow up “in full, in order and back to back” at a run of shows this November and December. Kicking off in Belfast, they’ll play Dublin, Norwich, Bristol, Bournemouth, London, Birmingham, Edinburgh, Brighton, Leeds and Nottingham before finishing up with a hometown date at Cardiff’s Motorpoint Arena on December 17th.
The run comes alongside a reissue of ‘Fuzzy Logic’ on November 4th, which comes with a bonus disc, ‘Lost On The Bypass Road’, featuring cuts from the band’s archive. There’s also a new Best Of, ‘ZOOM! The Best of Super Furry Animals, 1995 – 2016’, which features band favourites and b-sides.
SFA are busy, basically.
In a statement, the band say: “We were a young family and found ourselves parents to two, boisterous albums, suddenly born between 1996 and 1997. It was our doing; we took full responsibility and endured the sleepless nights. The time goes so fast and they are all grown up now, old enough to be taken on the road again and let them stay up late. Before that excitement begins, we find ourselves rediscovering the thrilling alchemy found in the ‘Fuzzy Logic’ vault and delve yet deeper to decide what makes the final ‘ZOOM’ collection.”
