This one is pretty fun to listen to. Not my usual jam, but decent.
aight
Solid enough Britpop. Alright is one of the best songs of the genre/era, I’m surprised they aren’t more of a household name in the US based on the merits of that song alone. Caught by the Fuzz, Strange Ones are also very good pop rock. They are basically a rattier sounding Jam. It’s impressive for a debut too, they sound more confident than cocky. Nothing about this is innovative or unique though, just solid Britpop.
3/4
Mansize rooster is a sleeper track, I was a fan of the melody. Of course Alright is a classic. I am a bigger fan of this than i was expecting.
3,5/5
It's "Alright"
02.09.23 - listened on my way to work. I can see why it’s in this list, classic Brit pop. A few songs I will go back and listen to!

Okay music, I listened 3 times and while the guitar riffs were okay, I couldn't really feel it. Lyrics kept washing over my ears and I could never latch on in my listens. Might be a me problem, but didn't enjoy this one.
3rd Listen: Previous ratings: 2/5, 3/5 Standouts: Alright, Mansize Rooster, Caught by the Fuzz, Lose It, Lenny. Rating: 3.5/5
Supergrass is one of those bands that I knew of, but never listened to. This was a pleasant introduction. From the get go, there's a ton of energy and I found my hands drumming along throughout most of the album. "Alright" was the only song that I recognized, likely from soundtracks and commercials. To me, this album sounded like what I think adolescence was supposed to be like. Running around with friends and getting into all sorts of trouble (but not too much). Admittedly, it is not the kind of music that I would normally seek out, as I'm not a big Britpop listener, but that's what this 1001 albums project is about. I enjoyed, but I didn't love it. 3.5*, which I will round down to 3*.
Feels very like....Fratellis-adjacent which is a style I don't mind at all, but it just doesn't get me super stoked.
We gon be alright
Only like four of these songs made me feel something and one was the one with the weird minion-ass vocals in the beginning, so make of that what you will.
Hmm... 3 bis 4 Sterne. Nöd so min Sound. Aber glich no guet gmacht. Mal luege.
I don't know anything about this band or this record, and when I see a band if from England in the 90s I immediately cringe because of the very bad track record this list has in egregiously over representing British music, but this record was surprisingly enjoyable. A much more punk vibe and energy than I was expecting. A pleasant surprise.
Alright es un temazo
Pretty good. Not remarkable.
Actually liked this album more than I thought I would.
Not particularly a fan of Cockney rhyming slang. Otherwise this is pretty fun.
Some interesting stuff every once and a while. 5/10
Decent, some fun moments but nothing really stuck out. Kinda blah overall, I'd give it a thumb sideways if there was such an emoji.
Alright is a tune and Lenny is also very good. The rest is perfectly fine - there’s some nice and interesting stuff towards the end but it’s pretty inconsequential on the whole
This was hard to rate because I have feeling that this album has wide spectrum of songs. Too wide in my opinion. There are songs that are too chaotic, one or two are more mainstream and some are between those two points. This inconsistency made it not very pleasant as a whole but some songs are good.
I’d Like to Know, Alright, Lenny, Strange Ones, Time, Sofa of my Lethargy and Time To Go. Instrumentals are better than the singing. I hate We’re Not Supposed To. I don’t like the cover. No don’t show me that.
Some good parts to this album, but nothing special really. Much better britpop out there. FS: Mansize Rooster, Time to Go
Britpop-punk sounds promising but turned out to be quite a mediocre variety of alt-rock.
Feel-good punk. Catchy tunes. A bit generic at times, but overall a fun listen. The Undertones are still better though.
Kinda digging it...
I'm not a fan of this 90s britpop. I don't think it's bad but I'm not a fan
Album confezionato bene tutto sommato, sprizza indie rock anni '90 da turri i pori e non sono un fan del genere purtroppo. Non ci aono canzonibl che spiccano ma c'è da dire anche che l'album è molto omogeneo, senza momenti di ricaduta a mio parere. Il genere in generale è troppo casinaro. 2,5/5 ma debbo arrotondare a 3
Feeling a bit burnt out after weeks of gravel so probably didn't give this as much attention as I should have, but I did enjoy it. Realized I knew Alright but everything else was new. 3.5/5
I preferred the second album. This one is quite raw, some places in a good way, other places in a not so great way. I don't like "Alright" and that soured the experience for me slightly. I really like "Caught by the Fuzz" though, so it's all good. There was a nice variety of tempos and sounds, but it felt a little incohesive.
Pretty decent.
Not as good as "We Only In It For the Money" but still a decent album from a fun band.
I didn't realise that punk was still a thing in 1995, although "Mansize Rooster" sounds like it could have been inspiration for the Kaiser Chiefs. I quite like the classic "Alright" but didn't realise it was by Supergrass - if pushed I would have said Blur or Squeeze. Pretty average on the whole.
Good but very repetitive.
Effectivement je coco
je découvre avec effroi l'existence du cockney rhyming slang
Banger
Enjoyed
A pretty standard album from an otherwise great band
Pretty easy fun pop punk. 3.5.
Melodic n quirky Britpop. Good stuff.
Out of context, since I didn't know about this band before, "I Should Coco" is ok. It doesn't fall clearly into any categories such as punk, new wave, emo, or some kind of "post-" descriptive prefix. I couldn't even tell exactly what time frame it was from, just that it's energetic, frenetic, sneery, glamy, brash, and juvenile - dictionary definition of a rock band. It can be a good thing to evade a clear context, but in this case it's more like being inert and innocuous.
The singles are great but the album tends to drift a little.
The album starts off at 100 mph but just seems to loose pace and slows down to a crawl. Supergrass were one of those bands that didn't seem to get as much of the spotlight as their britpop counterparts save from their song "Alright" which is pretty much a staple of every 90's playlist. This album kinda shows why as after a blistering start it just sort of deflates.
Pleasantly surprised by this album
Good frantic 90’s bitpop. A happy listen but I prefer their later efforts.
I like it, but is it really an album I had to listen to? 3/5
Classic brit-pop album! Some nice guitar work at the beginning, and after "Alright", the jammy tracks come on and are quite nice. Slightly repetitive, but the rhythm changes sort of make up for it.
Not bad. Not much to say. 3 T3B 1. Strange Ones 2. Alright 3. She’s So Loose
Alright...classic
Best song Alright
Not my thing
not as good as the other one, but solid.
Album was a fun listen, didn’t find anything groundbreaking but a solid album.
När brittisk musik var bra. Blev dock ledsamt att lyssna på exakt samma sak i 40 min. 6/10
This was just ok for me. Sounded like the soundtrack to a movie I haven’t seen.
Some great tracks on this record. However, do yourself a favor and skip the song “We’re not supposed to”. That track is an absolute ear bleeder, especially with the high pitch noise in the beginning.
Frantic and nervy, like a jittery Elvis Costello jawn.
I had never listened to a whole album of Supergrass, just the singles really. It was ok but hadn’t made me want to listen to more. Sorry.
All kinds of manic energy but I'm not feeling it.
Kinda interesting energy but parts of it just kinda went by. Curious to listen to more of them if it gets a bit more polished though.
A pleasant surprise! Lots of energy, fun to listen to, and didn't feel dated like a lot of the 90's albums on this list have. 3.5 stars
brit-pop punk
I'll give it another listen somewhere down the road, but my current assessment has it rated as not spectacular, not horrible, and most importantly, not immediately forgettable. As an aside, my wife was dancing to the whole thing. So whatever my rating, I suspect this will somehow end up in my collection.
Ionno if I’d listen to it again but it was an interesting dive into a fruit medley of punk, surfer rock, and psychedelic. Sofa of my Lethargy was prolly my favorite song. The way the vocals sound dunked under water reminds me of some Avey Tare, but this music took a lower hallucinogen dose
Mmmm
Caught by the fuzz, Mansize Rooster, Alright, Lose It, Lenny Bon album! Rend bien en concert
A couple really good songs, but not enough for a 4-star rating.
Very mediocre. 2.5 rounded up.
Surprised, had only heard Alright before would probably listen again.
Pretty decent upbeat, pop rock. Could have fit right in with the early 2000’s indie rock surge. Alright is a bop and a half. 3 stars
???/////
Fun britpop type album
Not the best of the britpop
Proper 90s flashback!
A decent album but ultimately not for me.
There is a lot of britpop on this list. This one was one of the better britpop records on here. Great production, and a diversified sound. Solid record.
fun!
This was decent. The song from the Clueless soundtrack made me like it a little more.
Cool pinky like sound with good energy
Not my style
I've known about Supergrass for ages, but was never impelled to listen to them. I found this album pretty good, but don't feel that I was missing anything particularly
inoffensive and more to my taste than others. but not exceptional.
Interesting album. I've never been exposed to this one. I find this catchy, and as the album progressed, began to like it more and more. Definitely could see rolling down the highway to this one all alone in the desert. The vocals are unique and interesting. Drums were notably good and drive the power of the band. Guitar on She's So Loose and the song overall is very attractive and kept me in. Great chord progressions and cadence shifts. Overall, I really like this album and it was much better than I expected!
Lively, good fun from the 90's. Nothing wrong with this one.
Mostly solid album. Loved "Alright", brings me straight back to the 90s. Hated "We're Not Supposed To", why do they sound like chipmunks? Averages out.
90s sound alright
Mediocre English Green Day that has a keyboard to start. Has that song 'Alright' that's alright I guess. Sofa of my Lethargy was good. Album improved as it went on
5/10. I'll probably forget this album by tomorrow. By the way, what the fuck was "We're Not Supposed To"?
Sure is britpop. I knew the big hit but I can’t help but feel this is another one hit wonder album on the list. 5/10
It's okay.
Sólo me gusta Sofa Of My Lethargy y Alright. Estilos distintos.
I don't really love anything here... Alright clearly stands out and Caught By The Fuzz has a moment... but much of the album is just adequate heavily british rock...doesn't really hit me. It's OK.
There are like 30 different albums already on this list that sound exactly like this one
Alright
Enjoyable, 3*
Alright. I liked 'Caught by the Fuzz'
A pleasant surprise. Can't quite give it 4 stars, but I'd give it 3.5.
I enjoyed this!
3.5!
decent. 3/5
Ein Album einer britischen Band. Das jedesmal, wenn es ins klischiert-banale abzugleiten droht und anfängt zu nerven, mit einer interessanten Wendung um die Ecke kommt. Das habe ich so auch noch nicht gehört. Eher wütende drei Sterne.
I liked this for the most part. I hadn’t listened the Alright for a few years and I was surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Lose It and Time To Go were two nice discoveries.
Pretty cool. I like the drums and rhythm section really seems to push ahead with punk rock energy. I Remember that song “ Alright” is super catchy. Can hear lots of 60’s British rock influence it even got a little jammy towards the end. I didn’t like the chipmunk voices song.
I actually enjoyed this. I liked she’s so loose the best. Don’t think I need to hear anything again.
For a UK punk "ugh..." sounding bad, I enjoyed it. Wasnt great, wasnt bad. 2.5 stars but ill give it a three only because they had some change ups and their sounds wasnt the same bland chords and whatever. Plus, I knew a song on there thats a classic tune. Maybe these guys were moving out of the GAWDY 90s and into the bright 2000ks
I didn't much like the first third of this album. It became more enjoyable towards the back end of it though.
considering this album art intrigued me i have to say the first 3 songs dragged a bit. can't imagine why anyone would want those as album openers but w/e. i didn't know they were responsible for 'alright' so tht was a nice moment of realisation. then immediately afterwards everything picked up at breakneck speed. i love how eclectic the entire body of work turned out to be and this is doubly funny to know ppl gripe abt this album when it it's considered a part of the sonic british canon or w/e. like,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it's not tht srs babes
Standout tracks: Caught By the Fuzz, Alright, Time Definitely a solid mid-90s Brit power pop album. That being said, this isn't my favorite style of music, so I don't see myself coming back to it much aside from the standout tracks mentioned above. Fun album though.
Favs: – Caught by the fuzz – She's so loose
garage punk band 3.5
somewhat misplaced, not my dig
It was very fun
It was fun
Overall, there’s a great energy, and this is a fun pop rock album that could be thrown on for some background vibe energy. There are times the album sounds like something offered up by a band like Madness or Oasis, and maybe been something that could have popped up 10 years later in the 2000s. Finding “Alright” answered a question I didn’t know I had, as I know I’ve heard it in a million commercials (might be the same one commercial played over and over). Until now, I’ve never known who performed it, so this was fun to learn today. Overall, this was a fun listen and maybe after a few extra listens, a few more gems could emerge for you.
It was good. I wasn't paying much attention to it.
Eh
Really British :( but it's good.
That one single, Alright, I recognized. It’s a fun song, heard it used before in lots of movies and ads. The rest is generic Brit pop rock, unremarkable.
Un album de punk qui me laisse indifférent... Après avoir écouté The Stranglers, The Hives et the Smiths (The queen is dead) dans la même semaine, celui-ci tombe un peu a plat... Un 3 car c'est pas si pire.
Another fun album. Been getting a lot of different he genres lately so it keeps me on my toes
Brit pop passed me by, so this was a discovery… a pleasant one. Enjoyable, a bit manic but worth a second hearing.
The first two songs absolutely slap, which I am filing under false advertising
Three hairy boys come stumbling out of the mid 90's with some classic Britpop. Think Mexican wolf boys on speed, but they're from Oxford. Best Tracks: Caught By The Fuzz; Mansize Rooster; Alright
Ok but other than a couple stand out songs, kinda samey
A fun, pleasant listen
It wasn't good and it wasn't bad, it just was.
Interesting album. Sofa of My Lethargy sounded like it was from the 70s, I’d Like to Know from the 80s, and Alright is peak 90s. I don’t know that I’d ever listen to the album straight through again, but a few good songs
Very high energy, most of it is pretty good.
Catchy, very catchy in places.
Some loud punk songs, some slower acoustic songs, overall a mixed bag, a typical example of mid 90s alternative rock. I recognized the song "Alright" from a few TV shows, movies, and commercials.
It was alright. Sounded like some inspiration for the New Pornographers. Wasn't quite catchy enough for me to think I'll return.
We are young we are free I think I’ll give this a 3
The last group I was in I believe that this album came up. It wasn't terrible, sounded very much 90s, kept me moving on my walk, so 3 stars for you Supergrass!
Not bad.
i dont rememember 3?
Middle of the road guitar-based 'geezer' rock. It's OK but nothing special.
The album was alright. It not really a punk album but whatever a step below punk is. It was relatively short which was good. I did not recognize any of the songs, nor was I familiar with the band. I did not skip any songs. I do not think I will relisten to the album.
Was okay, not the biggest fan, similar to a lot of albums on here.
It's not necessarily my thing- garage rock never was. Hipsters love this shit. It's certainly not bad though, and Alright and Time to Go were good.
Другой альбом этой группы в списке произвел сильное впечатление, а этот, по большей, части, прошел мимо. Не могу назвать его обязательным для прослушивания. 5 из 10 .
First, hate the cover, it is distressing. Other than that I liked this album much better than the other Supergrass that was generated for me. I don't love it, but it is generally listenable with some good bits which remind me of various other British bands. Alright is an undeniably good song, Sofa of my Lethargy is nice, and Time To Go is super cute as the last song.
Good album. Solid but not spectacular.
nothing special - one or two good songs - and not even my favorite Supergrass cuts
couple classics
good
“Alright” is one of my favourite songs but the album as a whole is underwhelming
It was okay. Thought I’d like it more than I did. Oh well!
A mixed bag
It was fine, energetic, and British, so of course it made the list. Seriously though, kind of fun and quick.
Super trava, juhu. Album na granici između trojke i četvorke, više na trojku na prvo slušanje.
Listened to on 4/27/22 2.5/5 Favorite song: alright, sitting up straight This album didn’t have an established vibe which made me like it less (very chaotic songs and then a few solid bops) but would listen to again
Everything else other than alright was fine
This one was a bit of a weird one. It was a punk rock style throughout, but right at the end they dropped a psych-rock/prog-rock track as well. It was fine overall, probably won't come back to it though. Highlights: 1, 2, and 4.
This one was fine enough. I don't love or hate it. There have been a lot of those lately. Fave track: "Time to Go," the closer. Found the melody lines kinda forgettable in this one. Vocals were okay, but wouldn't re-listen.
Good album, nothing earth shattering but a decent listen, I enjoyed it.
I love Supergrass and I believe the band's grossly underappreciated. However, I also believe the band has peaked and perfected its sound with its self titled album from 1999; I find this one a bit too rough around the edges, despite some great tunes (and I love Sofa of my lethargy!).
Pretty fun! Didn't realise they had done some of those songs.
Fine record, with good moments and some not so good moments.
Actually pretty decent.
[thumbs up]
Didn’t love is.
festival rock. don't particularly care about the band but it's a lovely day and everyone is having a good time. bunting, plastics of beer, think I might eat a dubious burger
very cvnt
Alright. See what I did there. None of it comes close to that track though. Decent stuff but not entirely in my preferred style.
I enjoyed some songs on this- nothing too notable for me.
3+ I liked it
My band opened for these guys in London Ontario, in 1994 I think. Nice guys. Good band.
Fun little record. Best track: Alright
A soiled nappy blowing in the wind. It lands on the unsuspecting face of Gaz Coombs. He spends the next 10-12 working days trying to get the shit out of his sideburns. It has become hard and knotted. Eventually Gaz gives up and takes his own life. There's a lesson to be learned here.
Alright
Two thirds of an album of bangers that falls off a cliff towards the end.
Wild and frantic album
Fun if inconsequential sounding album. Britpop is a pretty middling genre in general in my opinion and this isn't doing much to change my mind but it's entertaining enough.
Really don't like the album cover but the music is good. 3/5. Second time listening and a few of the songs are growing on me.
I missed this one when it came out, but then again, I was living in NYC listening to the last bit of metal glory and the rising grunge scene. This style of post-punk / pop-punk wouldn't catch on for some time, by which time I've moved on. It's okay for what it is, I think there are albums that better capture the pop punk British sound of the time. 3/5.
A lot more varied and interesting that the early tracks would suggest. A healthy lack of seriousness and a focus on having fun.
Supergrass harkens back to the British Invasion and Mod scene with I Should Coco. It is a solid album with notable tracks and "Alright" has a stay in the cultural scene that most bands would be envious of.
It's okay. I remember really liking this back when it came out though.
Feels
An interesting, angular LP that harkens the arrival of Jack White 4 years before the White Stripes would drop their S/T. Not all of the slower tracks work alongside the familiar-yet-skewed uptempo rock songs, but the overall product is one that warrants a relisten by far.
Interesting listen. Not incredibly special.
Lord, I wasn't ready for this at 08:45 on a Friday morning. The first song almost gave me a heart attack I had it up so loud. With this type of music, it sounds like the same fella has universally sung all of them as the voice always sounds the same. The song 'Alright' seems very out of place in this album, when it came on I had to check it was still playing the right one. If only the other songs had that vibe. The song titles probably entertained me more than the songs themselves, She's So Loose is an excellent example of that. The final song, Time To Go, I just found a bit strange and a cringey end to the album. Now, the album cover I'm not a huge fan of, its not a great painting if I'm honest, looks like something for a Year 10 art project. And because of the font, I read the title as 'I should GoGo' rather than CoCo which isn't ideal. 5/10 for the album cover.
Some good tracks here but the rest of the album sounds too samey to be all that memorable
Ihan mukavaa rallattelua. Hittibiisi oli entuudestaan tuttu ja muuta tuotantoa saattanut joskus kuulla. Kiva pläjäys viime aikaisten paskojen sekaan.
Það eru til betri Supergrass plötur, en þessi er hress og skemmtileg.
The name is familiar but somehow this band has completely escaped my knowledge despite being up my alley. Giving it a 3 but could move up to 4 with some more listens.
Like this album's big hit it was Alright! It definitely grew on me thru the day. I liked! Strange Ones Time Sofa of my Lethargy Originally would have rated a 2 but I like those 3 songs VERY MUCH. I'd like to know where all the strange ones go.
Some great Britpop here. Alright is an absolute banger of a song and classic Britpop. Caught by the Fuzz is another great track. The rest of the album is a bit of a let down. Some good songs, though they sound a bit samey. Alright, however remains a brilliant song.
Nou dat was lekker energiek.
Leuk, fris bandje.
Decent. Punk sound. I'm sure they were influential. Not really my favorite type of thing anymore. "Alright" was the best track.
This is an entirely new album for me. Loving it so far - nice energy. Long, though - 3 hrs of music?! I accidentally grabbed the 20th Anniversary album, which had a lot of live stuff on it, which didn't excite me much.
pretty good, not the biggest fan of british pop.
Interesting
Actually pretty good fun, first few tracks are great. Almost a 4 in places
enjoyable 90s britpop but wouldnt listen again
Didn't hate it, didn't love it. Alright just reminded me of my junior high/swim team BFF and going to see Clueless at the movies back when you'd beg your parents to drop you off away from the front door so they couldn't embarrass you. Bonus point for that nostalgia.
‘I Should Coco’ is more super catchy melodic guitar rock, with touches of psychedelia, more fun, and slightly less introspection and darkness then their other album in this book ‘In It For The Money’.
I found the first song to actually be a little bit jarring, but I settled into the music after a couple of songs. I feel like I have heard the song “Alright” before, though I do not recall hearing of this band previously. In the end, I found this album alright (heh), but not really one I’d make an effort to hear again.
Good album
Decent rock album that doesnt contain any songs though that leave a lasting impression
I really liked the song alright- it’s widely known and it was surprising to hear that it was on this album other than that album was OK some of the songs from weird some of them were fine so they eventually just cancelled out
Solid Brit-pop/pink.
Prima album, niet heel bijzonder
Not bad
good listening. I don't think any of the songs will be long time treasures but still pleasant to listen to.
Pretty eclectic mixture of songs, sometimes just one song was an eclectic mixture. I liked "Sitting Up Straight" but not much else.
Cool variety
It sounds like one of the top 25 albums of 2006, until you realize it was from 1995. This sound lived on
Alright. Few standouts but few duds
The first 4 songs of this album are amazing but then the rest of it is mundane. I want to rate this as a 4 but it's not quite at that level.
Hadn't listened to this album in full before, pretty good but didn't quite stick with me, but a fun sound overall
Modern British punk sound, high tempo. Pretty good but I won't listen again.
I liked a couple songs but overall not my speed. There were some moments that they sounded like the Stones though, so that was cool.
Had alot of fun with this one
Nice album, it’s got me in the mood for more Brit pop
Too british
Classic
Pretty good extremely disappointed that I didn't hear about this band sooner.
Um álbum de rock com traços de pop e punk, é relativamente divertido mas parece algodão dose musical, ou seja enjoa a certo momento. A melhor cantiga é a Lose It. Nota: 5/10 Data03/10/2025
Part brit pop, part indie rock with smatterings of grunge laced throughout. Not particularly cohesive as an album but some decent songs on it nevertheless : 'She's so loose', 'sofa of my lethargy' and 'time to go' being the pick of the bunch.
It's rare that I don't dislike punkish music, but this one sort of hit the right spots. I liked how it was upbeat without being "just fun" (=super annoying). The songs were more structured and the chaotic parts thereby more enjoyable to me than usual for this style. Not something I'd listen to again, but a good experience. I really liked Sofa Of My Lethargy, that was a very good song.
Not bad
It was okay.
day two: 02/01/21
TIL Supergrass and Superchunk are different bands. Grass is not chunk and chunk is not grass. I saw chunk at the Funhouse once and it was ok. Grass would've been superfun. Superenergetic. Almost the kind of youthful energy that can make an old 36 year old man feel exhausted, but not today. They sound like many bands I can't recall from the early 2000s that came aftergrass. Maybe Hot Hot Heat? While the US was getting into alternative and aftergrunge, these British kids were playing fun punk that's not afraid of a giant happy major chord in the chorus. Seems very out of its time but pretty cool in 2021. Not sure when I'll play this again, but maybe if live music returns I'll hear "Alright" playing lightly in the background after the house lights come up. B
I think Jack White owes these guys some royalties for vocal stylings. A lot of uptempo white stripes vibes, almost as if the white stripes were the devil on the shoulder and super grass was the angel. Definitely a precursor to the “the” bands: the strokes, the vines, the hives, etc. really fun album, but got a bit repetitive for me. I enjoyed the latter end of the album after the uptempo stuff got a bit tired. B-
It's okay, fairly fun and works as a good britpop album but it's not really my thing is it
The sort of rock that I forgot I was listening to halfway in.
Fun, eccentric, Brit pop at peak Brit pop. I enjoyed this. A good pick me up in the morning. Nothing groundbreaking or awe inspiring but I could see where MGMT drew some influence. I could almost hear them in some of these songs.
not as great as i remember it being
High energy, bouncy and catchy. Can hear why Steven Spielberg wanted to make them into the new Monkees. Is it a 3 or a 4? Probably a 3. A bit one time.
Omfg I’ve just added ‘Caught by the Fuzz’, ‘Lose it’ and ‘Sitting Up Straight’ to my running playlist, man alive. The guitar solo in Sitting Up Straight made me want to put a chair through a window. I actually might given the current climate. I give those tracks solid 4s, rest of the album gets a 3.
not as good as I remembered it, but has great moments
carico si ascolta bene!
Enjoyable, but I don’t rate it as iconic.
Some nice rock/punk/Brit pop vibes but not life changing. Could defo enjoy lying out on some grass, smoking some grass and listening to Supergrass.
Alright was the only Supergrass I had heard of before, but after listening the rest of the album seems alright too.
had a few good jams
Pretty enjoyable, like a boppier Blur. "Alright" is a teen anthem I forgot about. Would do 3.5 if I could
Good and solid fun, innit. I feel like if I grew up with this album, I'd give it a four and I'd give it a three and a half if the site would allow it. But as it stands, this Aussie gives it three slices of fairy bread out of five.
Time to good
3.5 stars. Really liked it
Poprock/punk, tempofyldt, opløftende
Punk rock, 3,5/5
Die englische Band aus Oxford nahm ihr Debütalbum zwischen Februar und August 1994 im abgeschiedenen Sawmills Studio in Golant, Cornwall, auf, produziert von Sam Williams und veröffentlicht 1995 über Parlophone – mitten im Höhepunkt der Britpop-Welle. Gaz Coombes, Mick Quinn und Danny Goffey waren zu diesem Zeitpunkt kaum über zwanzig, und genau diese jugendliche Ungeduld hört man dem Album in jeder Sekunde an: hektisch, respektlos, mit einem Grinsen im Nacken. Songs wie „Caught by the Fuzz", „Mansize Rooster", „Lenny" und vor allem das übermütige „Alright" wurden zu Hymnen einer Generation, die sich weder für Blurs Ironie noch für Oasis' Pathos entscheiden wollte. Stattdessen bekam man Pop-Punk-Energie, Music-Hall-Anklänge und Falsett-Chöre, die klangen, als hätte man The Who mit Cartoon-Sound-Effekten gekreuzt. Das Tempo lässt kaum eine Verschnaufpause zu, und genau das macht den Reiz aus. Im Rückblick wirkt „I Should Coco" weniger wie ein kalkuliertes Britpop-Statement als wie ein Zufallsprodukt dreier Freunde, die einfach loslegten – und genau diese Unbekümmertheit hat dem Album seine Zeitlosigkeit gesichert. Ein Debüt, das seine eigene Ernsthaftigkeit konsequent verweigert und gerade deshalb bis heute funkelt.
2/10 from Murray and 5/10 from me. Liked the first track but the rest was a bit drone-y and forgettable. Didn’t find the album very cohesive
Rockcito
I 90'er-konteksten kan jeg måske godt forstå, at de har fået lidt opmærksomhed for deres bagudskuende lyd, men selvom albummet ikke er dårligt, er det overraskende anonymt. Med undtagelse af hittet. Stor 2'er.
Never could really get into this one despite years of trying
Apart from alright this album is kinda just generic rock
Not a fan
it was kinda ok, but the 10. track was just terrible chipmuck music shit.
I never really liked Supergrass. Not sure what it was but something about them never connected with me. The singles have a fun energy and helped define the era. The album tracks are a bit meh.
Sunday, 26 July, 2026 This is…fine? “Lenny” and “Strange Ones” were pretty good. Otherwise, unimpressive.
Just kind of grand, really?
I was expecting to like this more than I did, but I didn't
Niente di che
The beginning of that one song was the original Minions.
Just such mediocre Britpop. It hasn’t aged well at all. It didn’t help that I listened to the entirety of this while parked in halted highway traffic. I just feel like I’ve heard this exact sound a hundred times before in a hundred better albums. Meh.
Nothing original here
Knock off Oasis, so two layers of overrated. I don’t understand why this is on a list of earth shattering albums other than the British having an exaggerated sense of self importance. Perfectly mediocre
Cool album. Not for me if I am being honest. Maybe listening to it at another point in my life could work. This is not the point. Not my style, not as cohesive as it could be. Pure chaos which is okay but not my vibe.
Rock que no soy fan de nuevo
Not my favorite style
Lively mid 90s Brit pop rock but standard stuff.
fav songs: lenny time distortion, cheeky, static 40/100
Britpop and indie rock built from jangling guitars, punchy drums, and high-energy vocals feels like being stuck in a loud arcade where a group of excited teenagers is having the time of their lives while you’re mostly waiting for the noise to stop—bright, fast, and initially attention-grabbing, but for me quickly wearing thin. The album commits fully to its youthful momentum, yet that same energy becomes repetitive and emotionally flat when it doesn’t land.
Not bad, but not to my liking
Number: 173 Date: 06/25/2026 Artist: Supergrass Album: I Should Coco Year: 1995 Style: Britpop Familiarity: Aware (2) Rating: 3 Before: ======= The album cover is familiar so I assume I've at least checked these guys out. Not sure what they sound like, britpop maybe? During: ======= First track, I'd Like to Know - I don't like this, sounds like what they were doing in the late 70s / early 80's, yet this is from 1995. Don't get me wrong, I am a huge fan of the Buzzcocks, and I might have been a fan of this album back then but not in 1995, as this was already done, like 15 years ago. 2 I'd Like To Know 2 Caught By The Fuzz 2 Mansize Rooster 2 Alright 2 Lose It 2 Lenny 2 Strange Ones 2 Sitting Up Straight 3 She's So Loose 2 We're Not Supposed To 4 Time 3 Sofa (Of My Lethargy) 4 Time To Go ----------------------------------------------------- 2.48 WEIGHTED AVERAGE (accounts for song lengths) After : ======= The only songs I liked were the last 3, which are quite different from the rest of the album. I'll give it a 4 for suitability I guess, since the "experts" seem to think this is an important album. 2 my personal rating 4 suitability for this list 3 impact ----------------------------------------------- 3 composite rating
Eh
Maybe I should coco but it was only so so
Aggravating.
pretty meh
I liked about half of it. The other half not so much. My favorites were She’s so Loose and Sofa (Of My Lethargy)
It was cool! one track really stood out for me but i dont think i'll be going back to this album much
Caught by the Fuzz Mansize Rooster Alright
Standard Britpop not very challenging but not offensive to listen to.
**An ok album
hmm 2
🎧I find this music somewhat annoying
alright
merke schon, dass ich mit dem album erst warm werden muss. Aber bis dahin sag ich, dass es sich nicht so originell anhört. es ist bisschen mutiger oder dringender als andere Alben aber sonst klingt es wie ich mich jede andere Britische idie Rock/Pop Band vorstelle. Und das Cover sieht halt realtalk aus wie gefurzt
The second half of the album is better, but only one song stands out
its' ok, a few bops. The famous song "Alright" is quite different than most of the album.
Por una canción tampoco me parece uno de los mejores discos de la historia no?
Airtight method to be featured in the 1001 albums: be a crappy irrelevant Brit Pop band. I have always hated that band, but I have to admit, it's actually not that bad. The music is a lot faster and louder than I remembered, and it has a youthful irreverence that's quite charming ... more Punk / Power Pop than Brit Pop. if it only weren't for the annoying voice of the singer ...
I am not familiar with this band. The record is not horrible, but it's rather dull and boring.
Why do Brits feel the need to include a weird vaguely pedophillic song on every album. Makes you raise an eyebrow. Anyway music is good and grungy but We’re Not Supposed To kinda makes you think about the whole album different.
4/10
Not as original as I'd hoped
If you don't mind peevish, immature little cockney wankers being total cock wobbles, the music is good.
Terve album vuhises minust sujuvalt mööda nii, et ma ei pannud peaaegu ühtegi hitti ega meeldivat lugu tähele (v.a. "Alright", mis on rahvusvaheline hitt). Minu jaoks kuidagi ebameeldiv rapsimine ja liiga kaootilised mõtted. Album pinises mul kõrvas koguaeg, aga lihtsalt väga generic muusika ei jää meelde. 2.3/5
C’est assez inégal et à plutôt vieilli, mais il y a des bonnes idées
not my vibe rn
