October 14: Supergrass: Supergrass is 10; the Best of 94-04
My roommate Sam had a copy of Supergrass' second album when we were sophomores in college, and used to listen to it a lot. I always thought they were the most Brit of the Britpop bands; they had a song called "Richard III," for Chrissakes! But this hits compilation proves they were also the most retro of the Britpop bands. This album could have been released in 1971 as a greatest hits album, and most people would have been none the wiser.
There are certainly some good songs on here, but it's obvious that Supergrass are running out of ideas. Most of the tracks are from their first album 10 years ago, followed by a dwindling number from each successive album. Ah, well; it's happened to better than you lot, lads.
