I agree, there are tremendous echoes of the early Supregrass in here and yet it isn't dated; damn catchy bass line and riff too.

Wow...is this the same Spergrass I remember from years ago?  Very cool....they seem to mature a lot...

Although Bill plays tracks from the "Road To Rouen" album often, I like their other albums much better!

The British satirical cartoonist Steve Bell drew the strip below in 1982 which nicely combines both meanings of supergrass, in the context in which the term was coined:

Love Supergrass.

I'll be hitting the road soon for a longish trip.

Think I'll bring this CD along, but hope I don't end up in Rouen!

Technically BMG still exists...they're called yourmusic.com.  They sell CD's for 6 bucks shipped (5 bucks when there's a sale).  Alas, they're closing shop in the next few weeks to a month.  But it's a decent place to get mainstream titles on the cheap.

I'd settle for weed.  But I have to say that I was in the middle of a really great Live Journal update when this came on, and I immediately thought, "Geez - this is SUCH a 10!)  So, I'm bumping it from 9 to 10 - not just because of the name, but because the song itself pulled me out of a very deep and serious mind-space.  Any song that can do that deserves a 10, in my opinion....
