Rhys and the rest of the Super Furries enlisted Brit funnyman Matt Berry to play the lead in this cheeky, soft-focused bit of '80s fun. Matches the musical melodrama to a tee, and it's got some nice what-goes-around-comes-around symmetry. Love when Gruff gets goofy.
Hey Venus! is out via Rough Trade.

Earlier this year we shined a light Swedish pop outfit the LK and their electro lovely, wintry gem "Stop Being Perfect." Had we known the band had a side project sooner, we probably would have written sooner. Instead, we came...
