Out of the haze of the velvet morning comes the first band to ever put the small town of Resolven, at the throbbing heart of Neath Valley, Wales, on the map. They are called, quite simply, EL GOODO, and their debut, self-titled album is a gloriously effortless piece of pop music perfection. El Goodo was unleashed upon the British record-buying public by their good friends and countrymen SUPER FURRY ANIMALS, who originally released their self-titled debut on their very own independent label, PLACID CASUAL, in late 2005. In many ways, El Goodo wear their hearts on their sleeves, their influences are many and their knack for melodies impressive. Taking cues from places as diverse at the ELEPHANT 6 collective to the fuzzed up tones of Scotland's C86 post-punk bands, the mysterious and enigmatic members of El Goodo make a wonderful racket.
