Super Furry Animals - “Phantom Power” DVD Super Furry Animals have come forth with their second DVD accompaniment of a newly released album. The main mission of this disc is to pair up their new album with a series of animations (the same ones shown behind them if you ever check them out live – and you should); additionally, the release contains remixes of each of their songs, lead in animations for every track, and commentary. I think this is a great idea and expect to see it happen more and more over the next few years. However this is only really useful to those who have a bitchin system in their house. As the animations aren’t the most engaging in the world, this disc is supposed to act as an audio with visual accompaniment to be played over your home system. Which is all fine and good, but most folks I know have pretty bunk set-ups in their home. Additionally, although I love their music, I can only listen to this when I’m at home and I do the bulk of my music listening going to and from and at work. I think the best solution to this would be to either package both the CD and the DVD together, or do as I’ve seen recently and on a single disc, put the CD media on one side and the DVD on the other.
