5 out of 5 stars Cosmic Riders.......2004-09-16

The Super Furry Animals have always been unique and although they haven't yet broken through to the mainstream they remain Britain's most important cult band.

1997's Radiator is the acme of their sound since it showcases all their different faces:the out and out pop of "Demons"(great song!),the punkish sections of "She's got Spies",the techno driven"Hermann Loves Pauline"(probably their best song ever),the freak rush of "Chupacabras"and the Welsh sung"Torra Fy Ngallt Yn Hir" all come together to form an album that despite being markedly different from track to track is definitely their own all the way through.

It's very rare to find a band with a trully original sound but the SFA are proud members of that elite.

Perhaps in a couple of years they become the best band on the planet but while that day doesn't arrive let's just treasure Britain's best kept secret.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......2004-04-27

This is one of the few albums that I listen to on almost a daily basis. I like that it starts slow, then builds into a blistering cresendo, and mellows out at the end. If Pink Floyd and The Beatles had a kid, then it would be SFA.

5 out of 5 stars Best Super Furry album!.......2002-09-01

The SFA is one of my favorite bands and I have all of their cds, and I think Radiator is clearly their best. It is best to listen to it from beginning to the end, as one song flows into another. It is like an epic album and every song is good, especially when the cd is listen to as a whole. My favorite song is "She's Got Spies," which is a great pop song and my fav of all of the SFA songs. This cd is incredibly creative and unique. I think this album is easily one of the best in the past 20 years; it is that good!

4 out of 5 stars Animal Crackers..........2002-07-07

ah, the whacky world of the Super Furries. I always wonder how Gruff gets his inspiration for lyrics, apart from the obvious huge intake of spliff. For example, here, on Radiator we have:

the story of the leader of a military coup in Sierra Leone
a fictional account of Einstein's parent's relationship
a meditation on Puerto Rican vampire "goat suckers"
