Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
"We are young / we are free / Keep our teeth / nice and clean" is hardly an incendiary motto, but the lyrics to "Alright" rather summed up Supergrass' influential Britpop statement of intent, I Should Coco. It's about being young, about riding on buses, about smoking cigarettes and about getting a little bit tipsy. Harmless fun, even if it does involve being caught with a little bit of hash, as frontman Gaz Coombes memorably recounts on "Caught By The Fuzz". What makes Supergrass' debut so much more important than, say, Menswear's debut album, though, is that I Should Coco sounds every inch an unforced classic. "I'd Like To Know" and "Caught By The Fuzz" clatter along with vintage punk cheer, but later "Time" and "She's So Loose" demonstrate a mellow capacity for reflection. I Should Coco is so much more than kid's stuff; it's an almost too-perfect snapshot of adolescence. --Louis Pattison

CD Description
The songs on I SHOULD COCO play like missing pieces of the Buzzcocks' SINGLES GOING STEADY, HUNKY DORY-era Bowie, and when the Stones still existed BETWEEN THE BUTTONS. At the same time, Supergrass fit perfectly into the very retro "punk" tastes of the mid-'90s charts, and make it all seem excitingagain.
Combining breathless pop-rock with an ebullient and glamorous sense of humor, Supergrass are nervy and fun. "I'd Like To Know" and "Caught By The Fuzz" show off Supergrass' undeniably British sensibilities (the chirping Cockney harmonies, the acoustic piano, the topsy-turvy bass lines), but it all works. The album is a rare breed--one that plays like an old favourite, but isn't an exercise in redundancy ornostalgia.
I SHOULD COCO isn't a painful reminder of eras gone by, but an adoring school-boy homage--exactly the onethat Supergrass plays up to. Because anything too serious might ruin a good time.

5.0 out of 5 stars One Of The Best Albums Of The '90s, 3 Jun 2003
This album is probably Supergrass' best (although 'In It For The Money' is superb too but this has more 'Mojo'). It combines classic punk with britpop in a unique way with VERY catchy songs which go by so fast that its easy not to recognise and appreciate the melodic complexity of them.

The album has alot of energy and is a very fun listen with tracks like 'Mansize Rooster' providing a very uplifting sound which features warm harmonised backing vocals that make you feel good and happy inside.

I recommend this album to any music fan and I would imagine you would have heard the single 'Alright'- well if you like that song (can't imagine why you wouldn't) then you will love this album.

I am proud that great artists like Supergrass are from Britain and i am very proud to have this album in my precious music collection!

5.0 out of 5 stars Supergrass' first, and best!!!, 12 Jun 2005
Debut albums are always hard. You have to nail it with great songs and build a good reputation at the start of a long career. I bet you that Queen and The Beatles would have jacked it in if their debuts were rated badly. Supergrass' debut album (now 10 years old) is absolutely brilliant. With fantastic songs coming left right and center. No matter how much you pay for this CD, you can bet you're in for a treat. It kicks it all off with one of the best tracks they've ever done-'I'd Like To Know'. A fantastic rock rampage with a funky instrumental at the end. Then, you have their first ever song-'Caught By The Fuzz'-a catchy tune based on a real event. Then another brilliant single that goes by the name of 'Mansize Rooster'. A bouncy song with a good drum beat that you just can't put down. At number 4 comes Supergrass' best-known song. 'Alright'. " We are young, we are free..." Pure genius at work. Then comes the fantastic rock piece 'Lose It'. And more catchy beats with 'Lenny'. 'Strange Ones' (another of their first) comes followed by another of the albums best. The ultra-fast and ultra-great 'Sitting Up Straight'. To slow things down, 'She's So Loose' and the laughably high-pitched singing of 'We're Not Supposed To' make a refreshing change of pace. The slow rock tune of 'Time' and the long beats of 'Sofa (Of My Lethargy)' and the great topper of 'Time To Go' end this album. After listening through it once. You'll see why it's so good...

4.0 out of 5 stars It's Summer '95 all over again..., 25 Mar 2004
Just bought this album last week after listening to "In it for the Money" and "Supergrass" on a pub jukebox last week. Once upon a time, I used to listen to a hell of a lot of britpop, but since then I've got into all sorts of things. Listening to the two albums mentioned above reminded me how good Supergrass actually are, so I bought it, and I think it's just fantastic.

Of course, everybody knows "Alright", but that's nowhere near the best song on the album. "I'd Like to Know" and "Mansize Rooster" are just about the most fun a tune can be, and that's what this type of music is all about. Since this album, Supergrass have grown into a much more mature (but no less fun) band, and this record shows pretty much their most raucous adolescent side, which is at times hilarious, and at others, just a clear ineffable British coolness. Admittedly, it tails off a little towards the end, but when it's on in the background of a party filled with 18 year olds, beer and maybe a little bit of other substances (such as those that Gaz was caught by the fuzz for), it's just storming all the way through. A definate for Supergrass fans, but for those new to the band, get "In it for the Money".
