Free Music Notes for Life on Other Planets
Free Music Review: Where to put all the energy?
Hit: 5 Stars
Without doubt, this is Supergrass' most energetic and fun album. All the songs, with the exception of Run and Prophet 15 (which are slower and moodier - thankfully, otherwise the mental whiplash would be just too much to take), just burst with energy and it's clear the lads had a great time coming up with these gems.
One of Supergrass' endearing features is the tongue-in-cheek approach they have to making their music. The humour and joviality that they inject into their songs is infectious, and in this album the humour is present in spades - one cannot help but feel good when listening.
Not as lightning fast as I Should Coco, nor as dark as In it For the Money. This album is Supergrass at their contagious best!
Life on Other Planets Poster
Life on Other Planets is proof positive that you just never know what a band has in them. While the notoriously blunted Supergrass have always produced vividly screaming pop, their songs never followed an arc, instead flashing their moments of knuckleheaded brilliance before shuffling off in another direction. While Life on Other Planets, their fourth disc, has the band's goofball hallmarks--random coughs, braying animals, and mashed potato references, to name three--the songs go somewhere, and they yank us along with them. From the galloping chorus in "Grace," to the rickety handheld percussion and soft phrasings of "Evening of the Day," and the zippy distorted guitar lead in "Rush Hour Soul," Supergrass offers complete pop pictures with enormous detail and lots of instrumental extras. And the songs really rock. Plus, it's hard not to be staggered by a group that cagily writes about offbeat topics like expired witches ("Brecon Beacons") and life among the dead ("Prophet 15") while remembering to make those bridges and choruses soar. --Kim HughesAlternative Rock Music CDs
