Supergrass shake off their brit-pop tag and mature with age
by J. Rossi Downers Grove, IL Reviewed on July 16th, 2000
This is one hell of an album! I am from Britain so I may be biased but this is easily Supergrass's best album (prior or subsequent) and one of the best Brtiish albums of the nineties. I don't know if they really made it in the States but they never really did in the Uk and it's a great shame if they are vastly underated on both sides of the Atlantic. In it for the Money has one of the best openings that I've heard and is a great poppy opener. Giving way to Richard III mid-tune the mood turns darker as Gaz and the gang launch into "Song 2" mode with a fantastic rock number. Other great hits include Sun hits the Sky, Hollow little reign, tonight and (lest I forget) Late in the Day. Its a definite improvement on I Should Coco and better than Supergrass in my view. There is not one bad song on the album each one connects with you on different levels. An album to compare with the best offerings of Oasis, Blur and the Manics, it deserves to get a mention when the Millenium gongs are liberally given out by the Brtish press.
