Gruff Rhys

Seeking New Gods

£24.99

Released: 21st May 2021. Seventh solo studio album by the Super Furry Animals frontman. 'Seeking New Gods' concept was originally driven to be the biography of a mountain, Mount Paektu (an East Asian active volcano). However, as Gruff's writing began to reflect on the inhuman timescale of a peak's existence and the intimate features that bring it to mythological life, both the songs and the mountain became more and more personal. 'The album is about people and the civilisations, and the spaces people inhabit over periods of time. How people come and go but the geology sticks around and changes more slowly. You won't learn much about the real mountain from listening to this record but you will feel something, hopefully'. - Gruff Rhys.
