As one of the leading bands of the mid-'90s Welsh motion, they were already labeled as outsiders by their course to sing intact songs in their native natural language, just their selfsame approaching was unique, good of both notion and left wing political activism. What define them aside from their associate Welsh bands were their infectious melodic sensibilities and their wildly irreverent mental attitude, which peers like Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, 60 Ft. Dolls, and Catatonia lacked. Super Furry Animals' 1996 debut album, Fuzzy Logic, became a major English hit, charting in the Top 40 and placing in the Top Ten of many year-end critics' polls. Formed in Cardiff, Wales, in 1993, Super Furry Animals were comprised of Gruff Rhys (lead vocals, guitar), Huw "Bunf" Bunford (guitar, vocals), Guto Pryce (bass part), Cian Ciárán (keyboards, electronics), and Dafydd Ieuan (drums). All five members had played in bands throughout their teens prior to forming the group, most notably Rhys, wHO had previously played in a jangle pop band named Emily that was in short signed to Creation, as well as a Welsh noise rock band called Ffa Coffi Pawb.

Super Furry Animals likewise became ill-famed during the summer of 1996 for attendance all of the pop music festivals in a mammoth storage tank.

Patients Get Dropped From Massachusetts Insurance Rolls
We noted last week that the universal health-coverage program in Massachusetts has helped grow the number of insured there. But the program has also hit a bureaucratic snag, the Boston Globe reports: Tens of thousands of patients have had their coverage terminated, in some cases because of errors by the patients or the state government.
Lots of those affected appear to be participants in Commonwealth Care, which covers people who don�t have access to employer-sponsored health coverage and earn too much to qualify for Medicaid. Those folks have to renew their insurance annually and tell the state every time they change jobs.
In some cases, patients have messed up filling out forms, patient advocates say. In others, the state has sent people�s mail to the wrong place. In still others, the state has misinterpreted information on the forms and mistakenly bounced people out of the program.
An example: The Globe examined the case of a patient whose employer was deducting money from her paycheck to send to Commonwealth Care � but the employer was getting the premium bill on the day it was due. Even though the bill was being paid, the patient was marked as delinquent and was bumped from coverage for four months.
Melissa Boudreault, director of Commonwealth Care, told the Globe there have been fewer than 100 wrongful terminations brought to the attention of the state agency that regulates the program. She noted that the state is overhauling the computer system that runs Commonwealth Care and the state�s Medicaid program, which should help with the issue. A spokeswoman for the state Medicaid program said the state is working to refine its mailing system and develop a reminder system and simpler renewal paperwork.

EDDIE FLOYD
For his first addition to the Stax catalog in 34 old age, Floyd turned not to Memphis simply to Boston. Working with local producers Ducky Carlisle and Michael Dinallo, Floyd revisits songs he wrote for himself and others at the legendary phonograph recording label that was revived last year. The 73-year-old Floyd sounds astonishingly loose and soulful, as if still in his �Knock on Wood� heyday. Backed by Carlisle (drums), Dinallo (guitar) and other local artists, Floyd�s pleading voice recaptures the r & b magic that made Stax a soul institution and him part of its groundwork.

The frontman for one of the most revered British bands of the eighties and '90s, Ian Brown symbolized the self-important cocksureness of his mouthpiece, the Stone Roses. Although the chemical group released nonpareil of the trinity or four most influential records of the ten in 1989 (their debut, at that), they lento imploded during the early '90s and released only one more than album earlier splitting up. Guitarist/songwriter John Squire formed a new band, Seahorses, while bassist Mani (Gary Mounfield) joined Primal Scream. Brown inaugurated his post-Stone Roses vocation with a 1998 solo LP, Unfinished Monkey Business. The album was recorded with the serve of ex-Roses replacement guitar player Aziz Ibrahim, only spotlighted a more emotionally divers coming to music-making than expected. The excellent follow-up, Aureate Greats, arrived in the States in early 2000, and Music of the Spheres followed one class after. In 2003, Brown contributed a volume in the Under the Influence series and had a cameo in the third Harry Potter pic, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

Nailbomb was a brief contrive between ex-Sepultura singer/guitarist Max Cavalera and ex-Fudge Tunnel singer/guitarist Alex Newport. Although both of the bandmembers' full-time bands specialized in extreme metal sounds, Nailbomb somehow found a elbow room to create even more dense and harsh metallic sounds (it too proves to be more repetitive, with the odd sample and brake drum machine detected here and in that respect). In addition to the duo, most of Cavalera's then-bandmates from Sepultura (guitar player Andreas Kisser and drummer Igor Cavalera) and Fear Factory guitar player Dino Cazares made particular guest appearances on Nailbomb's debut recording for Roadrunner Records, 1994's Point Blank, patch the group's last release, 1995's Proud to Commit Commercial Suicide, featured appearances from former Dead Kennedys drummer D.H. Peligro, Biohazard bassist Evan Seinfeld, and Front Line Assembly/Fear Factory keyboardist Rhys Fulber. Since their soph release, little has been heard from Nailbomb, as Cavalera returned back to Sepultura (later going away the chemical group to form Soulfly) and Newport began producing other hard rock candy artists (including At the Drive-In, Samiam, and Will Haven, among others).
