Super Furry Animals to give away Christmas MP3

Super Furry Animals are to release a free MP3 of ‘The Gift That Keeps Giving’ as a Christmas present for fans.

The package, available to download on December 25, also includes an exclusive b-side and brand new artwork by Japanese artist Keiichi Tanaami, who created the cover art for the song’s parent album ‘Hey Venus!’.

The band are also offering fans access to an online calendar, which will be available from December 17.

The calendar will countdown to New Year’s Eve, the date of the group’s spectacular at London’s Royal Festival Hall, gradually giving away exclusives as the date nears.

The calendar and MP3 will be available from Superfurry.com.

Super Furry Animals are also set to headline XFM’s Winter Wonderland in Cardiff on December 12, also featuring The Enemy and We Are Scientists.
