Super Furry Animals Lay Their Yetis To Rest

Super Furry Animals have revealed that they will be replacing their yeti costumes with something 'so new it doesn't even have a name'.

While on tour in Wrexham, Gruff spoke about how they were building up the extravagance of their live shows to NME: "We're building up; it's gonna get mental in the next few months. We're gonna be adding elements to the show. We have people behind the scenes working on new technology."

On their new costumes Gruff said: "There is gonna be something but it's gonna be post-robots. It's very futuristic, whereas the robot is history. The thing is, this thing is so new it doesn't even have a name."

While on their current tour the Furries have been testing out songs from their new album ‘Love Kraft’, on the new album Gruff said: "What I'm hoping is there's talk of a heatwave hitting on August 12, and the album's coming out on the 15th. We recorded it in intense heat, and mixed it, in Catalonia and Brazil. So because we're not used to the heat, we ended up making a really slow album that's really dense, really hazy. Not that you should make your record weather-dependent, but we think August is the month to release it."

The new album ‘Love Kraft’ is out on August 15.
