| | Supergrass Is 10: The Best Of 1994-2004 CD Supergrass Discography of CDs
Initial pressings of this US release includes a Limited Edition Live Bonus Disc of 11 songs.
Without rock bands like Supergrass life would be a bleaker thing. We don't need many such bands, just a couple here and there to remind us what rock music is really about: exuberance, loud guitars, a catchy melody, a good beat, and attitude. Since the release of 1994's single "Caught by the Fuzz," Supergrass has been churning out a consistently satisfying blend of the aforementioned items, a hopped-up rock blueprint that lifts from the best of Britpop--Bowie, the Beatles, the Buzzcocks, the Stones--yet manages to feel fresh and vital. SUPERGRASS IS 10: THE BEST OF 94-04, a retrospective of the band's first decade, is packed with fun, well-crafted tunes.
Whether on T. Rex-inspired anthems ("Seen the Light"), topsy-turvy pop pastiches ("Mansized Rooster"), electro-boogie new wave ("Kiss of Life"), or absurdly catchy singalongs ("Pumping on Your Stereo"), Supergrass pushes the right buttons. They can groove slowly, as on "Time," or launch a full-on rock assault, as on "Richard III," but at their infectious, hooky best ("All right") they can make even the creakiest listeners feel like they're reliving teenage glories. A distillation of the best the band has to offer, SUPERGRASS IS 10 is an irresistible dose of high-octane rock & roll.
One of the most charming British bands of the last decade, Supergrass managed to fit in everywhere but not be part of any scene. Supergrass Is 10 - The Best of 94-04 reminds us just how many catchy hits they had from their breakthrough Brit-Pop anthem 'Alright' to new single 'Kiss of Life'. In no particular order, the 21 songs here (including two new ones and an old B-side) cover catchy pop ('Alright', 'Grace', 'Sun Hits the Sky'), slick retro-rock ('Pumping on Your Stereo', 'Seen the Light', 'Going Out'), spikey punk-rock ('Caught by the Fuzz', 'Richard III', 'Lenny') and gentle acoustic numbers ('Moving', 'Late in the Day'). EMI. 2004.

Magnet (p.96) - "[T]hese Oxford lads have compiled a best-of teeming with tightly wound pop projectiles..."
