Debut of the most overlooked rock group ever (5 Stars)
by Brian Conway
Reviewed on September 29th, 2004
Supergrass' I Should Coco is a landmark acheivement. The thought that mere teenagers could recreate an energy not felt since the birth of punk in the late 70s is astounding. Supergrass deliver great track after great track almost through the entire album, each one filled with a youthful energy and an appropriate goofiness that is so lacking in the world of music. The frontman of the band, Gaz Coombs, has written enough infectious songs on this one effort alone to qualify him as one of the great pop writers of all time. Only during maybe one or two tracks does the album slow a bit. It effects the final result of the album but it doesn't kill it (the slow tracks are just as good as the rest). It's amazing to think how short-lived Supergrass' fame was when listening to this fine album and one can only hope that these unsung artists will rise to the top once more.
