Placid Casual

Placid Casual

Placid Casual is the Cardiff based record label set up in 1998 by Super Furry Animals.

According to the label's website "Placid Casual retains an amateur status and an a&r policy of blatant nepotism. We exist to expose to the world (when we can be bothered), songs that come our way that may be ignored otherwise." [http://placidcasual.com/background.htm]

Super Furry Animals released their Welsh language album "Mwng" on the label before leaving to sign with Epic Records. [http://placidcasual.com/background.htm]

Gruff Rhys also released his debut solo album, "Yr Atal Genhedlaeth", on the label in 2005. [http://www.placidcasual.com/catalogue.htm]
