The third album by the Britpop collective is reissued at present through BMG.
The self-titled document is sometimes called ‘the X-Ray Album’ due to its paintings that accommodates “clear” pictures of the band’s members.
Launched in September 1999, the third full-length album by Supergrass was described by Pitchfork as “as superbly produced as OK Pc however infused with the down-to-earth enjoyable of early Beatles.” Though much less impressed, Uncut said: “‘Supergrass’ shouldn’t be fairly the masterpiece they threaten. There are maybe too many moments right here the place lucidity doesn’t fairly penetrate the natural haze and their cavalier cockiness – as soon as so charming – now sits a bit uncomfortably subsequent to their genuinely appreciable achievements.”
The expanded model of the album is obtainable on CD and vinyl. It incorporates a full remaster of the unique tracks, sourced and re-produced by the band and their long-standing document producer. Aside from the songs from the basic model, the reissue accommodates studio out-takes, never-before-heard demos, B-sides, uncommon stay recordings and up to date remixes. There are two re-imagined singles by John Leckie and Mick Quinn, and two remixed deep cuts by Mick Quinn and John Cornfield.
