Seven Ways to Scream Your Name

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Funeral for a Friend

Release Date
This cd is a must have, it contains some of their best songs. They are alot heavier and raw then in most of their other songs on their later albums. It contains red is the new black and escape artists never die which are on casually dressed. But includes 5 other amazing songs. The Getaway plan is an amazing song and the vocals sound alot different as Matt Davies was experimenting with his voice. All in all it contains the best songs FFAF have ever written. Buy It!!

Spanish Dance Troupe

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Gorky's Zygotic Mynci

Release Date October 04, 1999
my friend reccommended this CD to me and i was surprised how good it was. It's a beautiful mainly acoustic driven indie/folk rock record with unbelievable melodies and gorgeous music. Their sound cane be related to bands like coldplay, murry the hump and the Beatles. Their lyrics are thoughtful and every track is class, even though 2 are eccentric to say the least (poodle rockin and hair like monkey teeth like dog). Other standout tracks are the humming song, over and out an desolation blues. I reccommend this to everyone who likes mellow indie or rock. Its a crime they havent had a hit.

Y Caneuon Cynnar: the Early Recordings

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Mary Hopkin

Release Date October 01, 1999
I stumbled on this CD by accident and struck gold! The purity of Mary Hopkins' voice is extraordinary and the beauty of the songs is enhanced by the translation into Welsh. "Plaisir d'amour" and "Turn, Turn, Turn" are a particular delight. I was especially pleased with a track that wasn't even on the list! - the copy I received had the Billy Edd Wheeler classic "The Coming of the Roads", made famous by July Collins, instead of the listed "Can't Help Falling in Love", which Mary has done beautifully. I can't recommend this CD too highly! Listen to it, buy it and then buy it for your friends.

Fuzzy Logic

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Super Furry Animals

Release Date January 15, 2001
I'm a huge fan of bands debut albums. Whether it be Oasis, The Clash, Weezer or R.E.M. There's something really pure and unspoilt about that first effort that artists make. From the heart without celebrity to marr the music. Super Furry's is no exception. Fuzzy logic rocks along in a wonderful dream like scape that they will never recapture in any of they're follow ups. Not to say that they haven't made other quality albums. They sure have! But please buy this one, it's outstanding and stands the test unlike many 90's albums. 5 stars*****

Reload (1999)

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Tom Jones

Release Date
For those who felt his style was outdated, again he illustrates just how fantastic his voice is!

The two best songs are the cover of the Talking Head's brilliant Burning Down the House and the reworking of classic San Francisco punk band Flipper's Sex Bomb. While I would say the Talking Heads cover is superior, anyone who enjoys this disc should really buy a copy of Flipper's album "Generic Flipper" (also called "Album") to hear the brilliant original.

Bandolier

CD-Charts > Music > Welsh Folk
by: Budgie

Release Date January 17, 2005
Although a lot of people speak highly of Budgie and strongly rate this album they never made it as a big band and I can understand why. Yes they are talented musicians and have some great musical ideas within most of their songs but as a whole none of the songs on this album make the grade. The lyrics are poor and most tracks last too long. They clearly have been a great influence on other bands, it is just a pity they can't combine the individual riffs, licks, solos etc. into a great song.
