Band that can seemingly do no wrong turns this way and that. As vain and self-absorbed kings come and go they serve cross-over hits whilst basking in their own mad sunshine, and now throw us an almost Bacharachian gem with this tantalising forerunner to next album, Hey Venus!.
Swimming in the dreamy swathes that typified Phantom Power rather than the acid-pop that provides their real edge, ‘Show Your Hand’ is still hewn from a rich seam and glides on a joyously melodic horn and vocal exchange. There’s little that sits in the ear more sweetly than Super Fury Animals in this form, and that leaves small room for complaint.
