"Phantom Phorce" is a remix album of Super Furry Animals' 2003 album "Phantom Power". First editions of the album, orderable from the band's website [http://www.superfurry.com] , came packaged in an unusual case that doubles as a paper model of an arcade video game, and included a bonus CD; the "Slow Life" EP.

The album includes a number of segue tracks featuring anecdotes from 'Kurt Stern' (actually the band's road manager cite web|last=Foster|first=Richard|title=Incendiary interview Super Furry Animals|work=Incendiary Magazine|date=2005-10-10|url=http://www.incendiarymag.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=701|accessdate=2008-07-08] ) who supposedly made the decision to make these remixes after being unhappy with the original "Phantom Power". According to bassist Guto Pryce this "running commentary is tongue in cheek, it's our road manager pretending to be a producer, and he ends up sounding like a.... twat!" These anecdotes give the actual CD release a different tracklisting from the official, stated one.
