The kind of high-energy, infectious, mondo-melodic music Supergrass makes just doesn't seem to be in vogue anymore (I complain all the time to anyone who will listen)--but groups are still pounding it out, mostly in obscurity. This album is classic stuff. It earns its five stars--not a bad track on the album. These guys really have a nice sense of drama and humor; "In It For the Money" is a addictive singalong number; no doubt aware of this, they snap the song off in mid-refrain and launch into "Richard III". "Late in the Day", with its jangling, ramshackle rhythm is quite simply one of the loveliest ballads I've heard in a long time, and matches "It's Not Me" in wistfulness. Young pissants they may be, they still sing both the rockers and the laid-back ones with a lot of sincerity that comes through in their voices. Let's see, what else...I first heard "Cheapskate" on a new music CD, and was really struck by the groove of it. Same with "G-Song"--great grungy bass. "Sometimes I Make You Sad"--wonderfully weird instrumentation--almost sounds like a backwards mask--you expect to hear "I Buried Paul" buried in the mix. I wish I had better words to describe how good this band is--perhaps if more people were listening, Capitol wouldn't be sitting on their newest release domestically. Love ya, guys.
