Hi there,

There's a cool little Gruff interview in the latest fall issue of Sentimentalist Magazine.

Here's a short excerpt:

How did you come up with the theme for this album, Love Kraft?
Gruff: What happened was that we were encouraging everyone to write lyrics and sing. It became apparent that Bunf and Cian’s songs were very much based in affairs of the heart. So out of all of our songs, we chose ones that fit in with “Walk You Home”, “Cabin Fever” and “Atomik Lust”. We based the album around those songs and that became the driving theme. However, as we recorded, we got looser. Not all the songs stuck to the topic, since there were also songs about dinosaurs, rather than just affairs of the heart.

Hope you can check it out!

Take care,

Cleo

I'm always amazed by how articulate Gruff seems in print. Whilst I can't criticise his talents as an artist, he always comes across as almost monosylabic in filmed interviews.

Maybe when he's speaking in Welsh he's more excitable?

Nah.

I always find it very difficult to follow what he's saying. It's not just because his accent is so strong, it's that monosyllabic quality to it too.

Anyone heard Yr Atal Genhedlaeth? Much better than Love Kraft IMO.

In fact, the furries haven't been the same since Rings.
