I think they toured there as they brought out a dvd called 'American Sasquatch'!

Have a look on Youtube. Especially for 'Demons' by Super Furry Animals. Shit video but a beautiful song.

Manics covered by SFA frontman! All good! And James says they've not influenced anybody!

Well they haven't influenced SFA. I think he just likes the song. SFA are much more imaginative musically than the Manics.

Never said they influenced SFA as a band! But covering them shows respect I feel! I like SFA but some of their stuff can be a bit OTT for me sometimes. It all down to taste as well within each band. James loves his melodic pop as well as rock stuff.

I think the Manics are quite imaginative musically without going into the realms of annoying weirdness and daftness. SFA are good at what they do but I still prefer MSP over them!

SFA are the best Welsh band, no doubt.

Are you serious? Gruff has the most beautiful voice.

Well, that's how you'd pronounce it if you were from South Wales. Which he's not

SFA are one of the best Welsh speaking bands.
