Supergrass has the ability to captivate the audience by jumping right into one of their catchy tunes containing poppy piano licks, crunchy guitar riffs, and a driving bass line.
Supergrass is a well beloved in the Britpop genre for their catchy vocal harmonies and their intense delivery in their performance. Songs like “Pumping On Your Stereo” has a Rolling Stones vibe to it with swaggering rhythms and vocals sounding like an imitated country twang similar to the sound Mick Jagger was known for creating. Supergrass often has mystical, entrancing vibe to their music as well with such songs as “Moving” that starts off in a minor chord progression and drab organ music, and then conveys a huge dynamic shift with the band coming in with a crunchy guitar riff and fast paced rhythm to create a strong energy. Lead singer and guitarist, Gaz Coombes, is known for creating really thick, meaty guitar riffs that create a strong sound for the band. He also uses reverb during his guitar solos to get a psychedelic vibe to the music as well. The audience is always ecstatic to see Supergrass live. They can be seen rocking out to the highly explosive songs like “Caught by the Fuzz” and humming to all their vocal harmonies. Supergrass has a very engrossing stage presence. During the start of some of their songs they look bottled up and as the tension grows in their song they explode releasing all their energy into the performance.
Supergrass has proven that they can create songs that will catch your attention with jiving grooves played on the Wurlitzer electronic piano and doo-whop style harmonies, and then they can blast you away with their hard-rock delivery of distorted guitar riffs.
Supergrass has an unbelievable steady, own original sound (with very subtle ironic details) characteristic for the nineties.In my opinion the the very best decade to be a teenager in the western world. the sound and lyrics are expressing how amasing it was to live in a save world without any conciousness of treat or anxiety of war. (and I think other British bands like Bur, Kula Shaker and Oasis)remember our lives desirering for (off line) romance, freedom to develop your own identity and feel free to experimentalize with with each other to explore sexuality in complete privacy (no phones). and as every new generation we felt a reason to be be critical about the previous generation. Altough I remember our oposition about a lot of changes in our society (govermental controlled businesses like trais, banks, housing and postofices and so on beeing privaticed. When I listen to the music of the nineties I feel guilty that I and others from my generation just have let that happen. Anyways, I thought that Supergrass quit playing but it seems that they might be found somewhere playing live. I'll be there!
Great gig, great setlist. Loved that they played a lot of old songs and some new ones too. This kind of venue really suits the band - great atmosphere, not too big. However, I wasn't sure about the vibe within the band, I thought they were a little static (apart from a few jokes between the new drummer and Gaz). Then again, we saw them from the balcony, maybe it was different for the people on the floor.
The show was great!! They played superb and the sound was amazing. St. Petersburg, She’s so loose and Alright were the peak of the show!
I’m not a big fan of the Alexandra Palace but the venue was really comfortable last night with a cool crowd.
PS: The Coral did an amazing job as well opening this show.
