Supergrass (Deluxe Edition)
Supergrass
Rock - Released September 20, 1999 | Echo
Hi-Res
Essentially, Supergrass' eponymous third album is a refined, subdued extension of In It for the Money. Where that album was a supremely confident, head-spinning musical kaleidoscope, splendidly shifting focus from track to track, Supergrass is down to earth, mellow, and unassuming. Part of the trio's charm has always been that they're unabashedly unpretentious, since their casual attitude made their considerable musical skill all the more impressive. On Supergrass, that casualness occasionally crosses the line into laziness. It doesn't happen all that often, but there are moments on the album that feel tossed-off, such as "What Went Wrong (In Your Head)" and "Beautiful People." This is particularly evident because these also-rans are surrounded by songs that are as great as anything Supergrass has ever recorded -- the harpsichord-driven, pulsing "Your Love"; the stately, sophisticated "Shotover Hill"; the gleeful absurdity of "Jesus Came From Outta Space"; or the breezy, infectious summer single "Pumping on Your Stereo." The disparity in material also hammers home the point that Supergrass doesn't quite gel, the way their first two albums did. There were no themes behind those two records, but the performances and songs shared a similar spirit. The third album is simply a collection of moments, some spectacular and some average. While that may come as a slight disappointment, since I Should Coco and In It for the Money are two of the greatest pop albums of the '90s, the songs that work on Supergrass -- and they do account for well over half the record -- confirm that the 'Grass remain one of the most gifted, irresistible guitar pop bands of their time.© Stephen Thomas Erlewine /TiVo

Live on Other Planets
Supergrass
Rock - Released November 27, 2020 | Supergrass Records
Hi-Res
Before the planet was put under double lockdown, there was... live music! To immerse yourself in this Live on Other Planets is to enjoy a life-saving reminder that the mental and physical power of a good old concert will never be replaced by a live session on social networks, watched on a 10cm smartphone screen... Supergrass have always had a symbiotic relationship with the stage. For Gaz Coombes's band, who are forever fine-tuning their studio albums, and for their audiences, concerts are an experience in their own right. After officially cashing out at the end of a legendary concert at La Cigale in Paris on 11 June 2010, Supergrass returned to the stage in 2019 for a global reunion tour which was interrupted in spring 2020 by the virus. With its crisp sound and magnificent performances, Live on other Planets goes beyond the mere "live album", to remind those who have forgotten that amidst the Britpop tsunami that shook the 1990's, Supergrass was a true marvel. More melodic than Blur, more restless than Oasis, and more eclectic than Pulp, this group started out with punk-infused pop, before making its rock more sophisticated by rounding it out with increasingly diverse influences like glam rock, funk, psychedelic pop or Sixties rock... But the real magic was that for all that Supergrass loved the Stones, the Beatles, Bowie, the Kinks, the Who and the Jam, they still sounded like Supergrass. Finally, this 2020 live recording also showcases the talent of the impressive melodist Gaz Coombes: scrolling through his hits like Caught by the Fuzz, Moving, Grace, Alright, Pumping on Your Stereo or Late in the Day. A class live act. © Marc Zisman/Qobuz
