Supergrass
– I Should Coco
Alternative rock can get clogged with self-conscious posing. The guitars slash through each song with wiry energy. The drums hit hard and keep the whole thing moving like a stolen car tearing through side streets. Supergrass pack the record with bratty charm, sharp hooks, and enough reckless momentum to make the album feel permanently airborne.
Best of…
Gaz Coombes sings with a grin that sounds half sarcastic and half genuinely thrilled to be making noise. The songs stay compact and hungry. Choruses crash in fast. Riffs arrive before the listener has time to settle down. This is alternative rock built from speed, nerve, and youthful impatience. I Should Coco behaves like a band trying to burn through every idea before somebody tells them to slow down.
The album carries the energy of friends throwing amplifiers into a cramped room and refusing to leave until dawn. Supergrass understand how to keep songs loose without letting them fall apart. Every track feels alive in the moment. The mistakes and rough edges help the record breathe.
Humor runs through the entire thing. Lyrics dart between boredom, confusion, cheap thrills, and adolescent nonsense. The band sound thrilled by their own chaos. I Should Coco turns restlessness into fuel and keeps stomping forward with scrappy confidence.
