British superheros Supergrass took over Brooklyn and NYC for four very much sold-out
nights supporting the stateside
release of their latest album and proved why
they are still a band to be reckoned with.
Starting off with a group of new songs from
Life on Other Planets and then
peppering the rest of the set with popular favorites like "Caught By the Fuzz", "Sun Hits the Sky",
and "Sitting Up Straight", Gaz never hit a wrong note and sounded better than ever but also
showed how the band has grown since I Should Coco stormed the airways back in 1995
(yes, kids, it HAS been that long). The foursome was tight and, at least to these ears, every
song was perfection.
Bands like Blink 182, Good Charlotte, Sum 41 and the rest of the lot
should go out and buy a few Supergrass albums to see how it's really done because that's
really who they want to be anyway...they just probably don't know it.
