From the psychedelic era Beatles sound of the opening bars of Za to the last seconds of the mellow Run, this new offering from Supergrass never fails to impress. Whilst the last album (Supergrass) had a few duff moments , there is not one bad track on Life On Other Planets. The band have chosen 12 tracks that show exactly what Supergrass are about.
Sure, the sound hasn't changed all that much over the years, but when it's this good, who cares? During third track, Seen The Light, Gaz Coombes does his best Marc Bolan impression and sounds fantastic accompanied by the 70s guitar sound of the band.
Brecon Beacons is a quirky little number with witch references and Evening of The Day, whilst not your typical Supergrass song soon grows on you to become a highlight of the album.
Never Done Nothing Like That Before is over almost as soon as it has begun, but is fun while it lasts and the recent single Grace needs no introduction - it's one of their best. The last two tracks are the mellowest songs that Supergrass have done in a long time, but are a fitting and welcome relaxation after the pure energy of the previous 10 songs.
So, don't expect anything radically different but bear this in mind - any band that can fit John Belushi and Roger Moore into a lyric (Prophet 15) are worth a listen!
Buy it today!!

Where many other bands are happily churning out more of the same (not looking at anyone in particular Noel..), Supergrass come out with more new ideas than you can shake a stick at on this great new album.
Borrowing heavily from a wide range of influences works very well when mixed with their own brand of originality and energy, and you can hear anything from T. Rex ('Seen The Light') to a bit of Abbey Road or Pink Floyd ('Run')... and 'Grace' is a great return to form in a similar vein to 'Pumping On Your Stereo' or 'Alright', and is guaranteed to cheer you up.
Without going on about each and every track, it suffices to say that there is something on this album for everyone, and is a welcome addition to their ever growing repetoire of hugely listenable stuff.

Here we go with just over 40 minutes of some of the best music to be heard in 2002.
The fun kicks of with Za, with a 'Chopsticks' style piano start before the familiar
guitar blasts in and a 'Pumping On Your Stereo' style groove carries things along nicely.
A great opener to the album.
Then 'Rush Hour Soul' ups the tempo slightly with a groovy 70's guitar sound.
'Seen The Light' is excellent. It sounds very T-Rex like, with Gaz snarling 'I'm a rock and roll singer in a rock and roll band' in an Elvis Presley snarl! Fantastically catchy with a break in the middle with birds singing and a sheep baa-ing !
Not letting up comes 'Brecon Beacons', an uptempo number with a tale of a mysterious death and witchcraft ! Weird, but good.
Time for a breather ? Not just yet - 'Cant Get Up' starts slowly but before long the tempo picks up. This is another top tune with a sing-a-long chorus - 'I-I-I-I cant get up no more'.
'Evening Of The Day' mellows things out slightly, with a more sombre Gaz singing about love, railway lines and mountains. Think Supergrass doing a Jazz record and this might be close ! Things then mellow even more 2 minutes from the end with some cool whistling and mumblings from the guys.
Full on rock for 'Never Done Nothing' - probably the nearest thing to the punky style of 'I Should CoCo'.
Classic Supergrass next with 'Funniest Things', quiet verses with big choruses.
The first single 'Grace' is fantastic with unforgettable lines like 'You ate our chips and drank our coke, and you showed me Mars on your telescope'. 'Save your money for the children' is the backbone to this one and its a very catchy number from the boys.
'La Song' - quiet start and then bang. Lots of 'La La La' and punky guitars. And Gaz singing about 'The dance of the mashed potato' ! Superb.
'Prophet 15' slows proceedings slightly. Lots of famous names here - Oscar Wilde, Steve McQueen and Cuban hero Che Guevara ! All of them 'lost in a crowd' with Gaz. Wacky and wonderful.
'Just' brings things to a halt. A 5 minute come down that is absolutely fantastic. Only Supergrass can do stuff like this.
The band have pulled together styles from their first 3 albums and the result is a classic. I have enjoyed everything they have done so far and this is no exception. I don't think that they could ever match the first album and how it burst on to the scene, the time was just right and BritPop was exploding. But for here and now in 2002 this is just about perfect. Everything you want from a Supergrass album and a little bit more. Still the most underrated UK band. No-one will even come close to this in 2002.

Good stuff but needs something more
Don't get me wrong I love this album and I love Supergrass, yet despite how good this album is there is a little of something missing that I can't quite explain. Read more

I highly rate Supergrass. They are one of the best bands of the 1990's. Their debut album I Should Coco is a masterpiece. Read more
