Supergrass is the third album by the English alternative rock band Supergrass. It was released in the UK on 20 September 1999 and reached #3. It is often referred to as “the X-ray album”, due to the picture on the sleeve. In Australia a free CD was included with some live tracks.

REVIEWS

E.P. – “I had never really listened to Supergrass before. Would have known a couple of the singles only. Moving is a great opener. I like What Went Wrong (In Your Head), Mary, and Jesus Came from Outta Space. Was never really a fan of that Pumping on Your Stereo – too much of a Mick Jagger impression.”

Mick – “I loved the album. Don’t remember ever listening to it before but knew quite a few of the singles: Pumping on Your Stereo had the best video ever and Moving is a great tune too.
I like Mary – great change halfway through it, and Faraway too. But by far my favourite was What Went Wrong (In Your Head) – absolute belter of a tune. Must have listened to it about 100 times this week. Really enjoyed it.”

Sol – “Similar to the lads, I had never listen to these. This is a great album, very consistent right through. You can hear so many influences from The Stones, Beatles, etc. throughout the album.
Faraway and Your Love are standouts for me, but my favourite is Moving – great opening song.
Really enjoyed that and I’m gonna go listen to their other stuff now.”

Molly – “I’ve never listened to a full Supergrass album. They were always a singles band… even when they were the theme tune to The Children’s Channel!
Moving is defo a super opening track. Pumping on Your Stereo is another great rock tune. But of the new tunes Mary and Jesus Came from Outta Space are the pick of the bunch. Good shout Spud.”
