And it’s been officially released. We know it’s going up against new albums by The Super Furry Animals and Depeche Mode (not to mention Empire Of The Sun’s US release of the best album cover ever made) in competition for your eyeballs and ears, but if you’d like to support The Scene, or if you just like damn great music, you should get this immediately:

Super Furry Animals continue to be cool. Like, really really cool.

The Scene has been a bunch of drooling, crazy SFA fans since we were mere toddlers attempting to tell the difference between Welsh and Klingon so we’ve been quite excited about the Super Furry Animals’ new record, Dark Days / Light Years, and its April 21 US release (kind of a perfect match-up for Dubious Ranger’s new album getting its US release on the same day). If you for some ungodly reason need proof that these psychedelic warriors still kick ass 15 years after they starting slamming 20 consonants together to make titles for Krautrock/powerpop/electronic-acid-trip songs about space alien tennis champions, George Bush, and a lot of shit that just doesn’t make any sense, check out their single Inaugural Trams.

Also, the Super Furries are streaming a bunch of new tracks on their Myspace, including some pretty effin’ sweet tracks with titles like “Crazy Naked Girls” and, get this, “The Very Best Of Neil Diamond”. Sweet…
