Yeah Silver Apples certainly do sound interesting when you see that the album was made in the 60s.. But from what I have heard (about half of each album (on utube)), Fever Ray is better and the one album I'm (more) looking forward to hearing... So Fever Ray it is

This is more like Gary Numan!

I know what you mean though, Silver Apples do have some very 'original' vocals that are sometimes best ignored





Joyofdivision, your not comparing Fever Ray to Gary Numan are you Shocked

Gary Numan is better IMO and has good lyrics.


And was making electronic music over 30 years before Fever Ray

I love Silver Apples because they had a massive influence on one of my favourite albums ever (Portishead's Third) and were years ahead of their time, pre-empting the Krautrock movement of Can, Faust and Kraftwerk, which in turn had a big influence on Bowie, Eno and 90's electronica

Were they time travellers? Think

Do you mean to imply Fever Ray does not have good lyrics?! They're like the terrifying Freudian ramblings of a mental patient. What's not to love??

Also, he was comparing The Mighty Boosh to Gary Numan.

No Gary, I was checking out Squishypuffs comments that Silver Apples reminded him of British comedy act The Mighty Boosh, when in fact they sound like one of their idols, Gary Numan.

Nothing wrong with that! Gary Numan's 'Are Friends Electric' and 'Cars' are both amazing

Just listened to Silver Apples.. May warrant A chart entry. I'm really loving it at the moment.

As ahead of their time as Silver Apples were, I was expecting more Fever Ray love.
