I Should Coco

I thought the first 3 tracks were the same song, given how similar they were. Then came “Alright”, which is an absolute tune and at least offered something different than the first 10mins or so. The rest went back to being boring.

Sugergrass are fun. After the dirgey nonsense of My Bloody Valentine yesterday, this is like a breath of fresh air to me. I don't think Supergrass ever really got the plaudits they deserved, as they got wrapped up as Britpop band and were dismissed as a result. And there's no denying that parts of this are reminiscent of Blur - parts of I'd Like To Know in particular make me think of Tracy Jacks. But Supergrass were their own beast and had far more ideas than the hundreds of carbon copy Britpop bands that flourished in the 90s. Caught By The Fuzz is a brilliant track which although I know it from it's original release, is now inextricably linked in my brain with an equally brilliant film; Hot Fuzz. Mansize Rooster is also great, particularly the "ahhhhhhhhhh" backing vocal and the jaunty piano. This whole album flies by in bouncy, confident and very enjoyable fashion, and then you remember this is their debut. This is such an impressive debut album. The slower, more gentle second half shows off their range and that they aren't just a trio of cheeky chappies. Genuinely loved this album and was sad when it ended (even though I've heard it many a time before). 5/5

Absolutely amazing for a debut. In fact, there were several more successful bands around this time that never achieved anything this good. It’s a shame that I tend to forget about this album because it blows me away every time I actually put it on.

No conocia, bien. Me econtré con un hit

I knew the album cover because I've listened to Alright quite a lot as I'm sure most people have. Some of the songs had a pop-punk-y charm to them like "Caught by the fuzz" which I appreciated. Some of the also songs tended to get kinda weird and not in a good way or to my taste. "Alright" seems like a totally different style than all the other tracks so it really stands out, also it's really good. I wish I could give 3.5

This is a fun and energetic debut album.  I like In It For The Money a bit more, but it's still a solid album with two great singles.  How many ads has Alright appeared on around the world? Liked Songs Added: Caught By The Fuzz Alright She's So Loose Time

Very enjoyable. There's some surf, some "space rock", definitely some '90s britpop (duh), punk leanings and a little Ween thrown in to offset some Beatles. Fun album.

rocky, hat mir gut gefallen, aber wüsste nicht wirklich gute momente, in denen man das hören kann? im auto wahrscheinlich, wenn man mitsingen kann.

This is a tight, energetic, rockin set

Yet another bland brit pop album on here. Giving it +1 star in that it's slightly different than the rest, but I can only take so many oasis wannabes

I like Supergrass, this was fun.

I was only familiar with a couple of Supergrass tracks, so I was looking forward to listening to an entire album. It definitely met my expectations, I liked this a lot. I love how relentlessly energetic it is throughout, while also having a lot of fun switch-ups. There are a couple of low points here and there, but nothing too egregious. The mixing also deserves praise, it isn't as compressed as you would expect it to be given its loudness and the time and place it was released. Favourite track: Caught by the Fuzz

Very eclectic album. Excellent electric guitar tone. Reminiscent melodies.

One of the few 90s bands that cited punk as an influence and actually sounded like it, at least on this record. Caught by the Fuzz / Mansize Rooster / Alright is a great run of tunes.

A fun album. Lots of energy. 4 stars. Fave track - we’re alright

Other than Alright, there's not much there.

Riotous is proabably the one word description for an album that barely pauses for breath. It delivers hit after hit (partly because they released so many singles) For such a young band it really covers a lot of ground and throws around ideas for fun. Objectively, it's probably a 4.5/5, but having recently watched the 30th anniversary tour and watch the band play the whole album live it can't be anything but a 5

Not my in my go to britpop albums but pleasant enough.

2.7/5 Nothing too amazing but I did enjoy alot of the songs. Im sure with a few more listens I could get around it more but it's decent enough.

Ah, the mid to late 90’s… I was big into Britpop, trying to learn to play the guitar. But strangely never really got into Supergrass. Well, I prefer their later songs from the self titled album. I could feel myself getting drawn into this record, as I did with Parklife, or What’s the Story… Obviously the big hit Alright isn’t too bad, and there’s some good highlights, but I feel I have to give this a three and move on to the next. Standout track - Strange Ones

Very 90's punk. Didn't hate it. Entertaining and not too long of an album.

This was excellent. Offspring crossed with the Beatles. Musically and vocally excellent.

absolutely stellar album if it wasn't for the last four tracks

Нирвана, если бы кобейн был из Англии и хотябы немного шарил за теорию музыки. Вообще, одна из самых британских пластинок, что я слышал. Ебанутая 40 минутная концентрация подросткового драйва, именно то что вам надо. 5/5. Одни из лучших в своем жанре. Имхо, предпоследний трэк немного затянут.

No me cambio la vida. Solo una cancion me gusto

really liked it m o dus cu gandul la Kuhnea

I like

Noise of the highest order

Great album, great energy and sound. I had heard alright before in movies but overall solid album

Really like this, punky and vital, lots of fun

Pretty generic.

it's ok but nothing memorable in particular except she's so loose, i liked that song

The single was all right (see what I did there) but the rest was too bouncy for me, didn’t hold my attention.

Not their best work. It’s not bad, but it comes across as mostly bland and doesn’t leave much of an impression. “Alright” is a good track, but it doesn’t really sound like the rest of the album, and honestly, it feels more like a classic rock song dropped into the middle of it.

3.5! Like Devo, MCR, and The Fratellis’ 90s Brit pop punk cousin.

Alright is an ultimate good vibes track Clueless Otherwise decent Brit pop with a variety of sound throughout

Liked: I'd Like To Know, Mansize Rooster, Alright, Strange Ones, Sofa (Of My Lethargy) Added: I'd Like To Know, Mansize Rooster, Alright, Strange Ones, Sofa (Of My Lethargy)

One of the better Britpop albums, not amazing for me though personally. There’s some pretty solid songs on here, and I might need to listen to more albums, but this one’s pretty all right. Three stars.

No private session used for Spotify. Fun album had a couple of great songs. Probably not going to make in on heavy rotation, but should listen to again.

In eerste instantie klinkt het alsof deze plaat 15 jaar te laat is uitgebracht: het zit allemaal nogal in het punk- en skaspectrum. En dan ineens lijkt het weer bijna alsof je naar Supertramp luistert. In feite is het Britpop natuurlijk, en het hitje is nog leuk ook. Helaas zijn niet alle nummers even boeiend, gaandeweg zakt de aandacht weer weg en vliegen ze in al hun vergeetbaarheid weer verder het heelal in.

Ik dacht altijd dat het Coco stond voor 'prettig gestoord'. Daar zat ik nogal naast lees is op wiki. (Het staat voor 'I should think so'.) Het zegt wel wat over hoe ik de muziek vroeger ervaarde. Althans over de eerste nummers. Want heel ver ben ik nooit gekomen. Het was voor mij deels wat vrolijkmakende gekkigheid. Niet mijn smaak, maar het afhaken, kwam meer door het andere deel van mijn beleving: afstotende punk. Nu luister ik toch wat verder. Het album krijgt later wat meer balans. Je zal het niet veel vaker uit mijn pen lezen, maar de extra britpop doet het album wel goed. Is dit nu bewust zo opgebouwd? Een luchtig voorgerecht om eetlust op te wekken en daarna een meer gebalanseerd smakenpalet als hoofdgerecht? Aan het eind zijn we in elk geval iets te lang gebleven. Het licht gaat aan en er wordt een rustig muziekje aangezet om ons eruit te bonjouren. 3.5 ster.

Supergrass heeft een aanstekelijke mix van rock n roll en britpop, die we eerder ook al mochten beluisteren van het tweede album. Daarna hadden ze nog een grote hit met Pumpin Up Your Stereo, maar vervolgens was de pijp wel een beetje leeg volgens mij. Op dit debuut zaten ze nog vol energie, wat je goed kan horen op met name het eerste gedeelte. De versterkers worden vol open gezet en de heren maken er een swingende pot rock n roll van. Ik heb dit album nooit gehad op de grote mp3-vergaarbak en daarom dus ook amper geluisterd. Maar ik denk dat als ik het wel had gehad, dat ik het best grijs had kunnen draaien. Alleen luisterde ik denk ik Oasis met whats the story, die wel een megahit hadden. Die grote kneiter van een hit miste Supergrass misschien, om echt door te breken, al is Alright heus wel dikke prima. Ik vind het sowieso een 4 waard, en twijfel zelfs over een 5. Want zoals ik al zei, dit had voor mij zeker potentie om grijs te draaien als een ware Leo Blokhuis.

i really liked the last two songs on the album “sofa (of my lethargy” and “time to go”. just for those two songs i’ll keep the album in my library.

"Alright" is a great song, but I could not have come up with the band's name. I like the energy of the album, especially "Sitting Up Straight."

Solid, Alright and CBTF are fantastic, but they went on to make much better singles and albums later on

Really good stuff! Seeing the band name I was expecting some horrid stomp-clap-shout garbage and was pleasantly surprise to hear frenetic guitar rock instead. worthy of repeat listens.

Does not hurt background. Ample uses to employ this album for scenery. It’s fine to have ever heard it tho

Yllättävänkin kiva britpop/altrock -levy. Yks hittibiisi selkeesti, ku tunnistin välistä. Ei moitittavaa, mut ei myöskään suuremmin herättäny tunteita. Meni taustalla oikein sujuvasti.

One of my fav albums of the 90s and possibly one of the best debuts in that era too. Great catchy songs that have stuck with me over the years. Maybe sounds a teeny bit dated now but still incredible

I had never heard of this band or this album before, so I'm surprised at how much I loved this. Super high energy and endlessly catchy all throughout with only one song that I can say I didn't fully enjoy. Alright is the clear standout here for me, I had actually heard that somewhere before but had never actually known the name of it until now which is a mistake on my part because it is a genuinely fantastic song. Every other track here though is also very good though, with the exception of We're Not Supposed To, which tbf, doesn't sound like it was made with the intention of being taken seriously anyway. Overall though, this was a surprisingly great album that really took me by surprise. Idk if I'll check out anything else from this band but I'll definitely be returning to this a lot. Fav Songs: Alright, I'd Like To Know, Mansize Rooster, Lose It Least Fav: We're Not Supposed To 8.8/10

Playful, effervescent Britpop. Good, not great. Top tunes: “Alright,” “Caught by the Fuzz”

Final thoughts: I was skeptical after the first three songs; each felt very similar. but these guys were able to throw a couple breaking pitches to keep things interesting. ******************************************************************************* --I'd Like to Know...not a banger but I like the energy --Caught by the Fuzz...see above --Mansize Rooster...see above. again --Alright...hello, Clueless. a welcome change of pace. --Lose It...similar to the first three tracks but I enjoy this one a little more. a better groove, maybe? --Lenny...enjoy the bass/drum interplay --Strange Ones...some interesting movements --Sitting Up Straight...fun speed rock --She's so Loose...builds to a satisfying conclusion --We're Not Supposed To...something slightly more psychedelic? it's kind of cute --Time...real nice groove to this one. Coombes is in good voice. harmonica adds a nice flavor --Sofa (of My Lethargy)...not good enough to be seven minutes --Time to Go...lazy river floating

I don't think I want to Coco. This album is not bad, but there's not much to like about it either. Just kind of ok. Mansize Rooster and Strange Ones were the highlights. Best song: Strange Ones

I was like "Oh yeah, I know that song!" Then the rest of the album happened and it was just okay.

Yikes

vibe surf rock sur la premiere j'aime bien c'est sympa mais pas transcendant non plus genre j'ai pas ajouté de chanson a ma playlist

Strong

Some nostalgic moments here and I haven't listened to this one in ages. The good tracks are good but lots of filler here.

What a great surprise. never heard of them, but what a great album. late 90s Brit Pop was a good time in music (we heard the Libertines a couple weeks ago). there is seriously not a bad song on the album. i actually listened to this one twice. i especially liked "i'd Like to know", "Caught by the Fuzz", "Alright", and "Lenny". i probably will buy this one.

I can't believe I never knew this band existed!! They are the perfect transition piece between 60s brit-rock bands like the Kinks with the subsequent neo-classic-rock phase like JET. They were about 10 years ahead of their time! Catchy songs, fun music videos, and fun music. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Just don't like the genre

I never heard of this band however I thoroughly enjoyed it. This was a very big and pleasant surprise.

One of the more enjoyable albums!

This album makes me want to frantically jump around my room !! Fav song is ‘Alright’.

More 90s crap. Seriously the 90s sucked. The best you can say about this album is it doesn’t make you mad or annoyed, it just doesn’t make you feel anything, which is about as good as 90s music gets.

Pretty good! A solid album, not really revolutionary but solid for British music. "Alright" is iconic.

It's funny seeing an album and a band and have never heard of either, and then listening to it and realizing you recognize vaguely some of the songs. My distaste for Britpop only continues and I think it'll become active dislike over the court of this project. A few decent tracks like Alright, but not something I'd really be interested in listening to again. Mostly same drums and guitar, and only okay vocals.

fun album :)

This is another criminally under-listened-to album. I forgot how much I love this album and genuinely can’t remember the last time I listened to it. Supergrass are definitely underrated.

2026.03.20

Indie / Brit Pop. Their debut album. A cracking debut, set at a frantic pace. I'd Like To Know is a real good opening track, it also sets the tone and there is no let up from there really. Alright was a big hit at the time and rightly so. Lose It is also a good track. An excellent album, a toe tapper throughout.

хайп

It's a youthful album, but I am not sure that I ultimately enjoyed it. Not my type of music

Highlights: Alright, Lose It, Time A goofy effort that was neither all that funny nor memorable. It was just ok. The style is messy and loud which kinda even annoyed me at certain points (for example on Strange Ones). Not a lot of highlights, but the rest isn't all that bad - it was just extremely meh. Overall I'm not revising this and I don't think I'll stick to anything other than Alright.

listening.

I feel like this is probably not bad, but I really just don't care about it that much. It feels like the same sort of stuff I heard from a bunch of other 90s bands, but they didn't do it as well as those other bands did. And it feels like it runs long, even at only 40 minutes. Just a very meh album to me. Favorites: Alright, Lenny, Time to Go

hey it was better than expected hey

Loved that there was a sound that tied all the songs together but they were so different from each other. Definitely bummed I missed in the 90s but so glad I got to listen to it.

Horror show album cover. Solid to above average Brit Pop musically. A pleasant listen but certainly not indispensable.

Idk kinda boring, fast music without any focus. Maybe it was cool back then.

I enjoyed this way more than I expected to. When I saw this was Britpop I was unsure, as sometimes that genre really does not connect with me. However it really did on this one. I like the theme of exploring outsiders, and the songs feel like anthems for them. The album seems to get a little more experimental structure wise as it goes along, which would occasionally catch me off guard but I grew to like it. Just a lot of really fun songs, liked this.

Better than I remembered.

Decent britpop. Tight instrumentals. Catchy. Good energy

Honestly, some great brit rock.

Fave songs: mansize rooster and alright

I think if I gave it more listens I’d enjoy more

Very fun! This album is a joy to listen to but also so far from being background music that it’s mildly tiring. It feels like looking into those weird funhouse circus mirrors. I don’t know if this album is as technically good as some other ones here but it’s so exhilarating and catchy that I wanted to rate it high 🙂‍↕️ Fav songs: I’d like to know, alright, strange ones

eh

Another album that came out the year I was born. Always a pleasant surprise. Only bangers so far from 1995 and this is no exception. British Rock/Pop is a very mixed bag with this project, because it seems like every other day on here I inevitably roll some forgettable album that ended up being pretty big in the UK but nowhere else. They’re not all bad, but I’ve been pretty disappointed with a lot of them. Some of them were even pretty highly rated on this site. While I Should Coco by Supergrass, the debut album by a bunch of actual children, 2 of them literally being 18 years old when this was being created, didn’t chart in the USA, the song “Alright” certainly left its mark. I’ve heard that song in various shows and commercials up to the point that I recognized it pretty instantly when it played for the first time. The funny part about it is that, although it’s still a certified banger, I actually like 3 of the songs I’d never heard before better. All that is to say that this album is really, really good. Historically, it caught on overseas because it gave UK kids a very powerful voice, and man does it ever. This album is filled with freedom, youth, hope, and various other positive feelings that I think we’d all like to feel more of in the big 2026. As unlikely as that is, this album really made me happy, and I almost want to give it a 5. Love the singer, love the guitar playing, and to create this album at such a young age is such an impressive feat that helps push this album even further in a great direction. You could tell me this came out today and I’d believe you. It hasn’t really aged a day, if anything it’s better than what’s currently coming out. Now I simply have to hear these guys live today and see what they’re currently up to, it looks like they still tour occasionally. Good for them. My favorite songs on this album, all of which were added to my usual rotation are “I’d Like to Know”, “Strange Ones”, and my favorite of the bunch, “Lose It”. My only criticism with this album is one that is very common. The bottom half kind of loses me a bit. First half is a 10/10, second half is like an 8/10. Still good but not 5 worthy. But man is it close. It was really difficult picking a rating this time. I Should Coco, which is apparently slang for “I should think so”, not entirely sure how, really surprised me. This is one of those albums that I started this project to hear. Will certainly return to this album, and there’s a second one on here that I’m going to wait until rolling to enjoy for the first time, as I usually do. Add this to the ever growing list of albums I might adjust to a 5 later. That’s how much I enjoyed it. Fantastic stuff here!!

This was decent but nothing special, again I liked the back half a lot more. Front half was a bit generic but the last few tracks were nice and calm

2.6 2x

Have I listened to this album before? No How familiar am I with this album? I apparently know "Alright" How do I feel about this artist? I really don't know anything about Supergrass Favorite song(s)? Alright, Sofa, Strange Ones Overall Thoughts: This was a really fun listen, I liked every song. I am not sure what the definition of Britpop actually is, but it's apparently not pop. I heard a lot of punk and glam influence and similarities to the riot-girl and grunge movements out of the PNW around the same time as this release. I have yet to have an album that made me actually want to start listening more to a band but this one did. I am giving it 5 for now, but later my system could change and I could end up demoting it to a 4.

An often overlooked Britpop classic. Great energy, humour and rock riffs.

This is why I like this list. Totally new to me. This was great!

no mames

it's a fun album, but surprised to see it on this list

Alright is a phenomenal song.

i like

This prompted a discussion with by husband on how UK pop was about a decade ahead of US pop because this sounds like it came out of 2005.

Occasionally fun. Never earthshaking and kind of forgettable outside of learning where Alright came from and who sang it. How much Brit pop is on this list again?

This album has a track on it I'm sure you've heard several times, but never knew the name of it, or artist who made it(I will let you figure it out yourself). Anyway, to say this is a hidden gem is an understatement. The versatility of good Hard Rock music, as well as catchy Brit Pop sounds, makes this album a 1990s masterpiece. Favorite Track: "Alright".

I was a fan back in the day…the single still hits the rest is meh

Hell yeah. I always have a soft spot for Supergrass.

Underrated Britpop band and a solid album

Not bad, quite fun but not essential listening. Gaz Coombes has a great voice, great songwriting but just not for me

Really good album - hard to decide between 4 and 5 - hits great - errred on side of a 4, but very much a 8.5/9 out of 10

It's alright

Ein nettes Rock-Album. "Alright" kenne ich aus dem Radio, der Rest ist auch gut hörbar. 3/5

I never imagined I’d see 1 Supergrass album on this list, let alone 2. That seems a bit odd since Supergrass are basically PBS to other Brit rock bands, them being the big TV channels. Yes, Supergrass are basic to me. Try to convince me oh holy Supergrass album I’m listening to. Convincing under way I guess. Two songs doesn’t mean much but their big album in the early 2000’s perhaps failed to impress me more than this one has. Ok ok fine, this deserves a listen, do I have any big take away from it? No but it’s defiantly listenable. No huge standout tracks but their big album songs just fit well together to make this a better than mid album. Choice cut: Mansize Rooster

A lot of really cool songs, but I'm so sick of hearing Alright, I'm going to be real with you.

Was torn between and 3 & 4 rating for this album. Some of it really rocked, some of it sounded like noise, some of it I itched to skip. Nice variety between the songs as well. I think I'll give it a 3 because I'm likely not going to come back to this one. (3)

7/10 Favorite: Sofa (Of My Lethargy)

Le côté un peu whimsical de l'album c'est pas mon délire mais j'avoue que les mélodies a la Ramones sont nickel, très bien produite et mixé. Je ressens un peu l'influence Madness. Pour un album produit avec aussi peu de budget et avec autant de volume, vitesse et rapidité, le produit fini est quali sans perdre en personnalité, doublé par les thèmes abordés et l'univers du groupe, ce qui en fait plus qu'un simple album de punk. Je ne suis pas fan des B sides mais les hits font mouche.

Today I learned who did that "Alright" song I hear all the time in British stuff set in the 90's. As some have said the first four songs on here are absolute bangers. Is it the best Britpop album? No, we've already established that is Blur Parkline. It is a great representation of the genre and honestly a band that I would listen to again but maybe not add their records to my physical collection.

alright, good one. well presented, well executed. i really liked the lyrics,genuine. i'm a bit suspect 'cause i love british 90s rock, but still. this is friendly enough to be pleasant but cool on the other side without losing the grip of the proposition. this is literally the sound you hear 2000s indie rock bands doing, but less polished. i liked how in tracks like "lose it" they play with the vocal production choices—from the beginning scream to the vocalist. the track "alright" is truly the best choice for a single: ironic, easy to sing along, and relatable enough without being too obvious. i truly liked it. the type of thing i would play at a party.

Review - much better than I expected! I thought they were just a 60s revival britpop also-ran, but the music's much more eclectic and punky than I expected. Had also never noticed how similar Ty Segalls's vocal delivery is to this band but now I can't unhear it. I think they're both trying to do an impression of Ray Davies. Rating - 8/10 Need to hear? YES

Ya. I'm going to have to hard pass on this one. Like Green Day, Cage the Elephant, and so many bands that sound like this, there is the occasional catchy tune but overall this project reinforces that I am just not a fan of this genre of music. Repetitive, noisy, in your face. It might have felt rebellious in the 1970s but by mid 90s was played. 2/5

not particularly interesting

some interesting parts nearer to the end, but overall quite average

Really good album. Even better knowing it was their debut. Wish I'd known more about Supergrass in the 90's. I really liked the first song "I'd like to Know" and the pace of the album.

I found this to be above average throughout, but not really a “great” album. I enjoyed hearing the song from the Clueless soundtrack and overall enjoyed listening, but it was immediately forgettable outside of “Alright”.

This the type of music I would want to hear at a basement venue. Just good vibes and good music. Fun stuff. 4/5

High end 3. Enjoyed this pretty well but no clear standout track. Strange Ones probably my favorite after Alright

Banger start - energetic, punchy, hard-hitting. The first 4 songs are total anthems with sharp guitar tones, fast drums, banger choruses and super charismatic vocals. Unfortunately after track 8 or so the album gets incredibly inconsistent. They either don't stick to their strengths or deliver them without the crazy energy. It's a pretty good album but kind of a rough ride.

It was a pretty fun listen. No takeaways from me and no jams, though. It was enjoyable to have on, solid 3 stars.

Very good indeed. The jokey songs get a bit irritating but there's also some real hidden depths. Outstanding drumming. Three stay of something great, and a fab teenage musical diary

Ah, this is who The Libertines WISH they were... Hooks aplenty, guitars played tight and fast busting out of the speakers, and an endearing Britishness that can't be bettered by any (many) of their peers.

These guys always made me smile. I loved the cheeky way they seemed to be having an absolute blast. The hits are great and the other tracks are solid.

Super solid driving punk/alt-rock. No weak tracks, and whole nothing that also jumps out to to blow me away, I keep coming back. Just a solid album.

Good

solid punky album

Honestly an absolute banger. I forgot how great this album is.

Nothing but reckless energy. And great songs. Favourite tracks: Caught By The Fuzz, Alright (one of those songs which has transcended to the monoculture and I'm bloody pleased about it), Strange Ones, Sofa Of My Lethargy (one of my very favourite songs at 17!)

super good example of brit pop, really fun to listen to

I should be more of a fan of this. My era, my basic genre, dug Alright. Not saying I didn't like it but it wasn't mind blowing. Above 3 but not yet 4. 3.5/5

Alright is a great song, it’s been on my playlist for ages. The rest? Pretty meh.

Crunchy!

(4/7) "Alright" indeed

I really like how fast-paced and and high energy the songs on the album are, and how soothing and relaxing the songs with guitars are. I feels like a well rounded rock album.

Truly one of the worst album covers of all time. Made me think it was Trolls inspired or smth. Great Britpop though.

ατόφιο ροκ

The first three songs were pretty good and I knew their biggest hit. What I don’t know is why I should listen to the whole album. It’s not that relevant.

There was one song I liked. I believe there's a term for that, alas it escapes me.

Conocía alguna canción pero me ha sorprendido gratamente el disco en general Empieza con fuerza con I'd like to know

Best Song: Alright This is one of those albums that is easily described as derivative, dull, and passionless. It's almost like if a moment in time was used when punk became grunge and then grunge became poppy punk. I always thought it was Seven Mary Three and even Silverchair but this really truly embodies it. 2/5.

I thought this was pretty good. It has a nice punk aesthetic to it with a nice hint of pop to it. Some of the songs do blend together or sound similar but I'll alow it. Alright is a good tune. 4

Some fine British rock stuff. The first couple of songs are significantly better than the rest, there's some cool punk influences on here it's just not all that special

It was alright, but not memorable.

Your crisp?

good lively sound

très très agréablement surpris, l’album coule tout seul, plusieurs style exploré, très cool!! 4+/5

Découverte (hormis "Alright"). Très upbeat et consistant à travers l'album. Des thèmes récurrents et des bonnes musiques en général, s'écoute tres bien

Bon album dans l’ensemble ! Dynamique et fun à écouter. Marrant la musique « Time to Go » à la fin de l’album. Bonne expérience d’écoute.

Eh

I can see why someone would like this but it just isn’t enough of anything for me.

That was a fun and cohesive record. It’s a pretty good debut that captures the raw, gritty sound of the 90s. I enjoyed how it progressed without ever losing steam, and it ended on a high note. The simplicity of the lyrics completes the picture perfectly. If anything, the album has fun with its sound and songwriting without trying to break new ground and it excels because of that. The standout tracks for me are "Lose It", "Strange Ones", and "Time to Go".

DEAR WHOEVER RUNS THIS ACCOUNT, YOU GAVE LONDON CALLING AND THE SPECIALS 1&2 OUT OF 5 WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE YOU ARE RETARDED SINCERELY, -DI

Oh great! More 90s British punk. The author of this list definitely has a type, too bad she has terrible teeth and can’t cook for shit.

Fun British pop punk band from the 90s that I never heard of before! Any ‘70’s - ‘80’s Ramones fan would like this group.

2,4/5

Had never heard of this band before. Was lukewarm toward the lead singer on the first pass but really enjoyed the instrumentation. Warmed up to the vocals on my second visit.

6/10

One of my favourite albums 5

Started off pretty generic (imo) but had some pleasant surprises along the way. Dig the first chord in "She's so Loose"

It’s not bad.

Just fine…

Appropriately wear their influences on their sleeves and throw out a few surprises.

alright is already a staple in my warm weather playlists and i like sofa of my lethargy gave will byers but overall the general style isn’t for me

Prima album met erg leuke nummers hier en daar. Maar eigenlijk gewoon fine. We're not supposed to is wel een heel storend nummer.

Priem!

Beetje proto indie sleaze. Soms leuk. Soms silly. Soms irritant

Dit is gewoon alright. Behalve het nummer 'Alright', want die track is een toppertje.

Interesting to get Supergrass' debut album after already listening to In It For The Money. Whilst I Should Coco hasn't turned me into a believer, it certainly solidified for me that they sanded off their more unique edges after this debut. There's a hyperactive energy to this album which is kind of infectious, if not always lending itself to particularly interesting songs.

I'm sure it was exciting when it came out. They're super talented and clearly listen to great bands. But it sounds like, at this point, they were just chasing sounds instead of making music. Most of it is drenched in the superficiality of punk. But punk isn't a sound; it's an attitude, an approach to music that eschews technical talent and insists on authenticity. Most of this album sounds like technically gifted (prodigious given their ages) musicians carefully aping their idols - which makes it decidedly unpunk. It's more Toy Dolls or Weezer than Buzzcocks. Alright is different - it's a great SONG that hints at what these guys are capable of. And when they begin exploring psychedelia towards the end of the album it gets interesting. But for my money, Supergrass didn't completely figure out what they were supposed to sound like until Life On Other Planets. That's the album that everyone should hear before they die.

Most of the album was rollicking good fun. Best song: "Alright" and I really liked, "Time To Go" too. Worst song: "Lose It"

It was good

Oooof. I listened all the way through, and I feel like I deserve a medal for doing it.

Obvio Alright es clasica, pero me gustaron casi todas, aunque creo que mi favs besides that one son Time, Loose It, y Lenny.

Messy, british punk! I can clearly hear The Rolling Stones, The Strokes and even some Beatles in their songs. Alright is one of those songs that everyone knows but nobody knows who sings it or where they heard it. Many songs sound like they belong in a movie about reckless teens. Favorite so far is Caught by the Fuzz. Not an album I could listen to all day though, as all the songs sound the same and it can be a bit overstimulating.

Another 8/10! Generalmente un album muy divertido. Me gusta mucho su sonido, upbeat, in your face, genuine Anteriormente habia escuchado Caught by the Fuzz y Alright, que es muy famosa, y ambas me siguen gustando mucho, pero mi fave se la doy a Sitting Up Straight, musicalmente muy interesante. Honorable mention a Time, no me esperaba un Blues song

Reipasta rock-musaa. Olin kuunnellut tämän kerran aiemmin, mutta tämähän oli pikkuisen parempi kuin muistinkaan. Hyvä levy vaikka kansikuva on aivan karmea.

I don't think I've ever listened to a Supergrass album start-to-finish before. I recognize a few of these songs by title. I don't know... This mostly just isn't doing it for me. Two tracks I did quite enjoy: "Lenny" and "Time"

Oh yes. Oh yes.

It's okay, but most of it isn't to my taste.

I like the energy. Exactly what I needed today. It has a nice punk sound but also enough pop to allow you to sing along. I recognized Alright-I had no idea it was by Supergrass. Strange Ones was a cool song. I would listen to that one again.

We're Not Supposed To is now in my top ten list of the most annoying fuckin songs I have heard.

Not bad not great. I enjoyed about half of the songs and I say this a lot but definitely some good driving music

A classic one hit wonder album, it has one good recognizable song and a bunch of meh whatever tracks. The one famous track here is not good enough to carry the entire album. Acceptable but nothing special.

Took me a couple songs to warm up to this music. At first, it sounded too British, but ultimately it charmed me with its unique alt rock sounds that I found to be unique and dynamic in a way that captured my interest.

Another review probably clouded by nostalgia as I went to see them tour this album at the Hacienda in Manchester in 1995. My mate fell asleep on a speaker (in was a 10k sound system as well...) but I stayed awake to appreciate the mix of indie anthems and slightly more punky pop tunes. Gaz Coombs was only 19 at the time.....

A pretty good album. I enjoyed hearing it again

Watched there glasto set on the bbc and thought it was incredibly boring but the album itself, solidly good stuff, best stuff is the reprisal of stranger ones throughout.

Album Review 074 I Should Coco by Supergrass (1995) Rating 4.5/5 Supergrass were the weird kid at school, the one who saw things differently to everyone else and got by just doing their own stuff but had a unique charm and innocence once you got to know them. If there is one underlying theme on I Should Coco, it’s them saying “Yeah, we’re a bit different but that’s cool. Let’s be friends” and 30-years on, the world needs this message more than ever. Musically, some tracks are hyperactive and full of energy, others are softer and more reflective but it’s all pretty simple and there isn’t a bad song here. I loved this album when it first came out and I still adore it now, it feels like a group hug and makes me all sunshiney.

creo que de todos los que he escuchado, hasta ahorita este ha sido mí álbum favorito. soy una persona que necesita escuchar los álbumes en repetidas ocasiones, porque poco a poco van creciendo en mi. son raras las ocasiones en las que un álbum desde la primera escuchada me encante y me paso con este. no se como nunca había escuchado esta banda, aparte de la obvia canción que todos conocemos.

It was hard to avoid Supergrass when Alright burst into the charts, they were right place, right time for the Britpop / Indie rock explosion. This album is energetic, vibrant, fun and varied with plenty of quirks. I would probably say that some of my favourite Supergrass songs come later but this was the album I knew best.

It's energetic

Alright is great

The sound of reckless abandon in the summer of 95!

Basically everything is more fun if it's punk, and Britpop is no exception. This is a blast - tails off a little in the second half, but boy is that a strong side 1

Very heavy, intro music kinda feeling so far you know?

I liked the mild punk vibes!

Tails off a bit towards the end but a solid album.

Only know the band from their hits, one or two of which are on here. Really like the very British flavour of this album. Kinks meets Buzzcocks via Bowie/Bolan and the Stones. Good stuff. 4

Meh. So very meh. I was surprised to hear a radio play song on here because it was so so very boring. 2.5/5

Energetic, and not boring, which is the only thing one can hope in the endless sea of acoustic and/or indie boring shit that pops up on this list.

This is pretty good. Nothing is sticking out in particular on my first listen, but maybe I'll listen more and some of it will grow on me. Sweet bass tone and the songs are well written and mixed. Pleasant listening experience, if a little bit of a blur (no, it's not Blur, it's Supergrass!).

Nie dla mnie, trochę takie nijakie, nie wiem jak to opisać. 2/5

Supergrass was my first listen on this generator, but it was the next effort "In It for the Money". I remember thinking it was well made, but not tailored to my tastes at all. I think the same applies for this effort but with better material for singles. I was shocked when I heard Alright and could finally put a band name to the song. The quality of production is very nice, the musicianship isn't lacking here, but aside from a few solid tracks, I find the effort mostly forgettable. I'd have preferred a Best Of compilation, or a good live show, at least as far as must-hear-albums go. 3.2/5

4.5 Super fun britpop high energy. While the album cover is absolutely atrocious, the music is jammin

The distillation of what seems to be every dominant rock/pop style from the UK over the course of about 30 years into a 40 minute listen (you can hear Kinks, Queen, the glam side of Bowie). Pretty admirable effort, but after getting another Britpop album yesterday, I might be just a bit tired of the genre already. If you're gonna send this stuff my way, give me Suede at least.

Good but forgettable.

Did I enjoy this? I should coco!

Just a great, fun, guitar pop record. I remember seeing them at a small club gig before this came out and they were absolutely exploding with that ridiculous energy, vitality and enthusiasm that's seemingly unique to the very best 3-piece guitar bands. All these years later and every track is still utterly captivating - even Alright, which was inescapable for years, remains a magnificent pop song. They always seemed quite cartoonish and I'm not sure how seriously they were taken at the time but it seems to me, they never made a bad record.

In my mind Supergrass are a bit of a modern day Monkees, which may not be entirely fair and on re-listening to this album for the first time in a long time it still is a great piece of indie guitar pop. It is hard not to get sucked into Caught by the Fuzz, at the time Alright felt to be on absolutely everywhere and got a bit annoying but it is a great, if throwaway, pop tune. A bit of a wander down memory lane that was perfectly good company. They sound like they were having a ball too.

Me ha sorprendido muchísimo. No me esperaba que me gustase tanto. Además de las canciones conocidas, tiene temas muy buenos. Sonido muy bueno. Recomendable.

cool

Surprised by this, not what I expected. One of the better ‘britpop’ records I’ve heard. Cardiacsy in places!

Just classic Britpop!

Immediately knew I’d be listening to this one again and again. The energy is infectious and I loved the British Invasion influences. Makes me nostalgic for my teenage years. “Sofa (Of My Lethargy)” is probably my favorite track.

Brittiläistä poppia melkoisen melodista

enkele bangers, enkele mehh

Holy shit why was this so fun

Never heard of this band or album and was presently surprised how much I enjoyed it. Smart writing and catchy licks.

I heard this for the first time about 6 months ago and immediately loved it. Enjoyed it just as much time time around

Alright

One song clearly better than the rest. Not my favorite type of music but it’s listenable

solid 3.5 tbh

It's a pretty good album

Not a strong start, but I ended up liking this much more than I expected. Classic 90s alt style.

2/12/26. Another gem from this era of music I have stumbled upon! I know Britpop is a media term, but it's hard not to compare to other bands from this scene, like Blur and Oasis. Thought the songwriting was strong and loved the different dynamics throughout.

Not my vibe

The album starts with so much energy that by the time it peters out at the end, you don't mind quite so much as you're also exhausted.

Couple bangers

Catchy uptempo Brittpop, fun to listen to.

Loud 90s rock album with some decent tunes. Nothing stands out on the first listen, but it’s fine overall. 2.5/5.0

Going into this, I thought I'd never heard Supergrass but knew what they would sound like, in part due to their name. However, when the album started, I was surprised by the sound. I was listening to an extremely kinetic indie rock band with fast guitars and energetic drums. Then Alright played and I realized I had heard thos song and band before but didn't realize it was them. This album is a fun listen and definitely through my assumptions out the window. Liked this a lot.

I've never explored their music beyond the Best Of album and watching festival performances like Glastonbury on TV last year but I'm glad I have now. Such a fun, lively album from a fantastic band!

Jolly britpop. More please!

I should say so! Britpop at its finest and Alright is one of the iconic tunes of the genre.

Good first half, poor second (opposite of Leeds last night). Only Alright.

Been a long time since I listened to this and I'm glad I did. Like a musical history tour quoting the Overture from Tommy in the opener, Beatles- influenced guitar and harmony influences, and a sprinkling of punk just to spice it up. But it never feels derivative (Gallagher, wake up at the back of the class). For a bunch of teenagers they did an impressive amount of homework. 4*

Great discovery from the challenge, high energy, super fun album. Mansize Rooster was my song and first listen of the album with She’s so Loose, Time and I’d Like To Know as my songs of the album

qcho que 4 estrelas

I liked this more than expected, “Alright” was a good song I didn’t realize was a hit until I heard it. The rest was kind of just there, but enjoyable.

This whole album was solid! I recognized Alright instantly (didn’t realize how old it was), but then I started to fear that this was a one hit wonder album. Turns out that’s not the case.

ENOUGH FUCKING UK POP ROCK

This is a very energetic and catchy album. It won me over pretty quickly and is one of the more surprising albums that I'd never heard of. I've heard that one song because it's on commercials and all over all the time, but that was not one of the better songs.

Some good tracks, but nothing special

Great album. Good songs well played. I've always thought Supergrass are criminally underrated.

Fresh as a daisy. Great songwriting and playing. Side 2 drags compared to superlative side 1

Her var der en af projektets skjulte perler. Når "Alright" er blevet spillet på P6, så har det lidt været en skipper for mig. Det er dog albummet eneste sang som ikke er noget for mig. Det er virkelig ungt og legesyg, måske endda umodent album, men jeg elsker den energi!

Hold op en knaldperle af et album. Der er fuld fart på de unge Oxford-drenge. Det er et af de Britpop albums jeg aldrig har fået hørt, på trods af at Alright var her, der og alle vegne i ‘95. Som album ligger det langt fra monsterhittet. Det er langt mere råt og punket. Det gør absolut ikke noget.

Interesting that Spotify says this band is 1 of the most important bands of the 90s. Never heard of them. They were ok but not groundbreaking or anything.

Solid enough. Not much to write home about. I understand if you're British how this is a seminal album, but otherwise, fine poprock.

It's a very nice listen, actually. Very 90's. Solid songwriting and very nice instrumentation. I enjoy the range between the more rocky songs and the acoustic ones. An enjoyable listen. Not extraordinary though, I think so. A 3

Great album! Great band! Like the British killers or something very good though!

music that plays when a slightly alt character gets introduced in a 90s rom com

Couple classics at the beginningin that I've heard and liked before but never knew what they were called.

a britpop classic

Brand new to me. I got this, saw the nightmare fuel cover and had LOW expectations. Instead I got surf music that went through a lawnmower. Incredible stuff.

Listened to it twice, and I still just did not like it (and I got fed up with it at exactly the same point in the album both times: the harmonica entrance). Every second I just wanted to be listening to other bands this sounded like (and got really annoyed that I wasn't). Did not get a sense that this band knows who they are.

12 hours later, Alright is still stuck in my head.

Let's try and unsee this album cover Of all the britpop this list has force fed me of late, this one I think I prefer best. Sofa (Of My Lethargy) is my pick from this one. I hear Beatles and Traffic influences in it.

Loud and in your face. Thought I would enjoy this more.

This is what an album should be, thematically cohesive, picked out, curated, banger after banger.

This sounds like a Britpop band in 1995. Kinda like they mashed T-Rex and the Kinks with some punk influences (Buzzcocks?) into the Britpop mold. Youthful exuberance indeed. I _should_ like this, given that I was generally into UK bands in the 90s (mind you more 'arty' bands like Slowdive, Belle and Sebastian, and such). I missed this one, which is perhaps why it isn't clicking with me. No nostalgia to attach to it.

great album - particularly obsessed with She's So Loose, couldn't turn it off all day

Dope

Regular

Starting out it has white stripes vibes

lively and fun and I recommend playing it loud first thing in the morning like I did

I only listened to part of this; it was not really my thing. 90s alternative, but the few songs I listened to all seemed the same to me.

This is better than I thought it would be, especially because I really don't like 'Alright' The faster, punkier songs are pretty good

I was surprised I was familiar with the song Alright, I had never heard of this group before. I was busy working and didn't notice the album ended, and Spotify started playing other songs by the group. I just let it keep playing.

Have heard "Alright" but could not tell you the name of the band.

It's unique and fun! Takeaways: "Alright"

It was okay. Britpop is really not my thing.

First album that I am not familiar with the artist at all! Maybe I'll know some of the songs. I decided to look at the Wikipedia article about the group before I begin listening, and I found out that this is their debut album, and the name of the album is actually cockney slang, which has always been a weird niche topic I've been interested in. Looks like this album never gained traction in the US, so it's possible I have not heard any of their music until now. Looks like they may have broken into US markets a little bit around 2000 based on their awards, so maybe I've heard their later albums. OK, listening has commenced. And I do know their music! Really, I only know one track. They have a typical 90s rock band vocals-guitar-bass-drums sound that I loved during that period (I guess also keyboards, but I haven't noticed it yet), but less melancholy than the Seattle music I loved. While they are definitely a rock band, I hear a little bit of pop in their style as well. OK, after an initial listen-through, this album has very few skip tracks. It's pretty great. Reminds me of a lot of the indie music I was into when I was in high school. I wish I had discovered them back then. I probably would have played them on repeat, honestly. Not a perfect album, but the majority of songs are bangers, especially the second half of the album. My favorite track is probably Strange Ones, which features changing tempos throughout. Very happy to have found a new music group to listen to! 4/5 stars.

Felt very varied. It was a fun listen, there was some stuff I liked and some I didn’t, but at least it stayed interesting. Probably wouldn’t listen again though. Fav song: Alright - Also liked Sitting Up Straight and Time Least fav: We’re Not Supposed To

Alright is a banger, like the upbeat vibe of the rest but nothing special. Specific rating - 4.1 Fav song - alright Least fav - we’re not supposed to

None of the others hit the way Alright did. Some of the songs were a bit too high energy. Favourite song: Alright Least: We're Not Supposed To

I liked the energy and the variety.

J'ai pas trop aimé la première écoute même si certains sons sont très biens, mais avec un second repassage sur l'entièreté de la tracklist, je trouve l'album vraiment intéressant et assez riche. Bravo

A down the middle 90s rock album.

I don’t care for this

pretty good, added multiple songs

an unexpected surprise for me: I really enjoyed an album by one of Britpop's more esoteric acts! these are some fast-paced, hyperactive power pop songs that are utterly dazzling in their wit and the intensity of the performances involved. I can't believe the members of Supergrass were teenagers when they recorded this! their abilities as songwriters are far beyond their years. there's a lot of fun harmonic surprises that made me think of RYM beloveds 12 Rods; I'm pretty sure they were listening to this when they were writing Split Personalities, another pop rock record with a ton of flashy compositional chops under the hood. across these 13 tracks, Supergrass pretty much never let up on the catchy melodies, and they're almost always paired with some frenetic drumming, deep vocal layering and funky guitar strutting. never a dull moment in these 40 minutes! strong 9/10.

Interesting

It’s fine. I don’t feel you need to listen to this in full prior to leaving this earthly plane.

I went from "Oh this is really cool, I would listen to this with my friends while hanging out" to "OMG I KNOW THAT ONE" when Alright started playing. Really cool album and I miss summer hangouts :(

This is a sick album, lots of personality. I especially liked the first 4 tracks.

honestly fuck yeah. it's got this scott pilgrim sex bob-omb garage punk fuzz with a little more british tweed to it. there's a decent level of pop appeal throughout, and they mix things up enough to not get dull. I'd Like to Know is a stellar opener, but Time is probably my favorite track

Rating: 7/10 It's some pretty good Britpop with a raw garage sound from this time. The first half is fast paced and fun, then the stretch of tracks 7-9 weren't my favorite. And then really slowed down in the last few tracks but I thought they were decent too I was having enough fun with it, maybe not something I would return to all that often. I'm sure a lot of us have heard 'Alright' which is a good song and really feels like a true influence on a style to come around the turn of the century with the post-Britpop indie sound. The album cover art is cursed

This album was a joy - interesting and great and a fun time. Interesting in a "lets all be creative and produce a banger of an album" kind of way 8.1/10

Plenty to digest here. Adjusting for the 1001 review scale, 8 ⚖️ out of 10 lizard wizards

I thought this was very good - catchy tunes, high energy, overall good britpop. People have noted that they can hear inspiration from the Kinks and Supertram in this, which I can totally see (and I love both of those bands so it’s a good sign for me). Would listen again.

What a massive, extremely pleasant surprise. Admittedly, britpop is a large blind spot for me (yank) so when I saw that tag in the genres I was expecting my very stereotypical view of britpop, aka the few hits I know from Oasis and Blur, and early Radiohead. Man, this album blew me away. I was not expecting the level of punk energy that came with this one. It carries obvious melodic influences from bands like The Beatles and The Kinks, but a raw edge to it with thrashing guitars and pounding drums more akin to later stuff such as The Hives. Little did I know I had heard the song "Alright" hundreds of times but had no idea who it was. It's definitely been featured on many commercials. It's an enjoyable simple tune but in my opinion might be one of the least interesting tracks on the record. Some highlights for me included "I'd Like To Know", "Man Sized Rooster", "Lenny", "Time", and "Sofa (Of My Lethargy)". But there really is not a miss on here even with the very abstract and silly "We're Not Supposed To". This is the first album on here that I've genuinely loved and wanted more of.

Genre? Punk? Punk-pop? Ska-ish? I think I would have liked this album and seeing the band live when I was in high school. It’s got a youthful sound and energy. I like the British flavor. Second half of album different sound than the first (liked 2nd half more) Not sure that’s listen to it today at this point in my musical “journey”. (Dislike: the cover)

This album is definitely of it’s time. It fits well in 1995. It’s not my jam though. Do I hate it? Not at all, it just doesn’t move me. The single, “Alright,” is great, though!
