SUPERGRASS. - Review - sound recording review
Interview, April, 2000 by Matt Diehl
Supergrass (Island)
"I got a feeling you're not ordinary," Supergrass vocalist/guitarist Gaz Coombes sings on 'Mary," but he could in fact be singing about himself, as Supergrass' latest effort remains head-and-shoulders over his Britpop brethren. In the mid-'90s, Supergrass smoked the U.K. with their mix of punk-pop, Beatle-esque hooks, and teenage-kicks exuberance. Quietly epic, Supergrass reveals a staggering leap forward. A roiling blend of pastoral melody, funky keyboards, and glamslammin' rock, this album starts out ambitious and doesn't stop. In fact, its expanse grows with each listen.
