...added to the atmosphere, they really were not necessary; the music was doing the heavy lifting. At once melodic and thunderous, Caribou put on a mesmerizing stage show.All the opener’s strengths only brought the Super Furry Animals’ weaknesses into sharper contrast. The group sounded flat and uninterested, a problem exacerbated by the choice of material, with several tracks from their recent sub-par LP “Love Kraft.” The opening salvo of songs all blended together into a morass of undistinguished low-key Beach Boys homage.
