Cian Ciaran - They Are Nothing Without Us

Review by Aaron Lavery

Something that flies in the face of any received wisdom about side-projects from the guys in the background, and shows that Cian Ciaran can stand on his own as a songwriter and performer.»

Super Furry Animals songwriter, vocalist, keyboard player and producer unveils his second, politically charged album. Where 'Outside In' earned comparisons to John Lennon, Chris Bell and The Beach Boys, this album owes as much to Jesus and Mary Chain, The Pixies and stoner rock. Although tackling the big issues of corporate and political negligence and environmental suicide, the depth of of Cian's disaffection is married with a breezy style of song writing, with many tracks layered with lavish, yet understated vocal harmonies and hints of the upbeat psychedelia that pervades the Super Furry Animals back catalogue.
