Info zu Radiator (Remastered - 20th Anniversary Edition)

The HighResAudio editions will feature a brand new remaster of the album features a massive 44 tracks, including an unheard cover of The Smith‘s The Boy With The Thorn In His Side which the band recorded for a covermount CD of a French magazine. Speaking of this track, Gruff Rhys says “We wanted to translate the lyrics of The Smiths track into French, so I spoke to a French friend of mine, who was actually working in Manchester, hence the half-French, half-Mancunian accent on the spoken introduction. It didn’t quite work out that way, although there are elements of the translation on it if you listen carefully, so what we have instead is an instrumental homage. I can’t remember why it didn’t get released, but am glad it hasn’t been lost forever and Furries, perhaps even Smiths fans, can now make their own mind up on how it compares to the original.”

19 of those 44 tracks are previously unreleased, and the work of cataloguing the archive material and remastering fell to ‘head archivist’ Kliph Scurlock and Donal Whelan. Scurlock explains that “Taking a more natural approach to the mastering process allows more of what the band did back then to shine through, rather than coat it the unnecessary gloss of nineties mastering techniques. Delving further into the archives, the unreleased tracks, b-sides and demos have had only the faintest of touches to bring them up to a quality the band is happy with, but still puts us in the rehearsal room or studio with them.”

„Using the psychedelicized prog-punk of Fuzzy Logic as a foundation, Super Furry Animals move even further into left field on their second album, Radiator. As before, the group displays a gift for catchy, deceptively complex melodic hooks, but now its songwriting and arrangements are mind-bogglingly intricate and eclectic. Songs boast intertwining melodies and countermelodies, with guitars and keyboards swirling around the vocals. Similarly, the production is dense and heavy with detail, borrowing heavily from prog rock and psychedelic pop, but pieced together with the invention of techno and played with the energy of punk. It's a heady, impressive kaleidoscope of sounds, but what gives Radiator its weight is the way the sonics complement the songwriting. SFA's songs are melodic, accessible, and utterly original -- melodically, they may borrow from '60s pop, but they rearrange the clichés in fresh ways. Also, Gruff Rhys has a fondness for revolutionary politics and the bizarre that helps give Radiator its intoxicating, otherworldly atmosphere, making it one of the few late-'90s albums that sounds inventive, vibrant, and utterly contemporary.“ (Stephen Thomas Erlewine , AMG)
