Song(s) of the Day # 3,956 Pys Melyn

 


You can't beat a great Welsh Rock & Roll band.Badfinger, Gorky's Zygitic Mynci, Super Furry Animals, and now.... as 2024 draws to its close. Pys Melyn.

Sent my way by a recommendation in the pages of Mojo by Bill Ryder Jones. So cheers Bill. The band have been playing tgether for ten years. Having been chucked out of their first gig because they were underage. 'Fifteen with about three pieces of facial hair.'



Latest album Fel Effeolland finds them kicking into winding muttered guitar jams. As if the Velvet Underground had formed in Harlech. It's clear they're doing this primarily because they enjoy doing it. They'd probably sing in English is that was their primary driving urge. And they're all the better for not caving into the idea of doing so.
