Over the past 10 years my appreciation for Britpop (admittedly an all-encompassing term for mid-90s British indie with 60s influences that given groups as diverse as Oasis, Pulp, and Blur tells you nothing) has only gotten stronger with perhaps 15 albums from the era that get regular plays by myself. With time, this one has bounded into the top 5 of those 15 amidst well-known and critically-respected albums by the above big three groups. While not as well known (though certainly most here have heard this group if not this album) as say Oasis and Blur, Supergrass has had a solid career with some consistent albums. Of course, their debut is the gold standard, a wonderful album of quick pulses melodic punkish joy, but (though I love I Should Coco), I find myself listening more to this album which, like many sophomore attempts, adds some interesting diversity - tempo shifts, horns, etc. ....fun album worth revisiting if you know it already (and oh that wonderful cover so different from those of their contemporaries - did they want to sell albums
)Highlights: the title track; "Late In the Day"
on the Sam-O-Meter. Great choice, Zeeb!
