I know Unknown Mortal Orchestra are one of the hot new buzz bands going right now, lots of kids digging then and all that shit. And the music ain't bad, fairly catchy pop songs, maybe a little more falsetto singing than is necessary, but not bad. But here's the thing - they sound pretty much just like Super Furry Animals. Well, SFA if they were being played from a shitty tape deck at the end of a long metal pipe. You could certainly do much worse if you're looking to hear some lo-fi soul-tinged pop music, but it just makes me want to break out "Rings Around The World" or "Phantom Power".
