Supergrass- Road To Rouen

MrBrau1 · 07-22-2005, 07:43 PM

It finally leaked.

I've been listening to it all day. Lots of different instrumetation. Acoustic guitars, pianos, keys, strings. Only 1 song under 2 minutes

. Really melodic stuff. The songs have lots of different movements, big drops and such. Miles away from the buzz-saw guitar pop of "I Should Coco." But the record is still only 35 minutes long. They keep progressing in their songwriting, with really nice results.

Favs:

Tales Of Endurance (Parts 4,5 & 6)
Roxy
Kick In The Teeth

Awesome. Downloading it now.

Yay, Supergrass!

I need to get involved in the digital age.

Looking forward to hearing this.

Intrigued...I havent thought about Supergrass in awhile.

The MP3s I got tagged the genre as "Indie." THEY'RE ON EMI/PARLOPHONE, YOU IDIOTS.

Anyway, it's a neat album. Like Brau said, the arrangements are a lot more elaborate than their earlier stuff, but the melodic pop craftsmanship's still there. It's their Revolver, I guess.

Ah, Supergrass! I saw their first 2 vids on a video show here in Australia last night (for the millionth time I might add). I looked at them very differently after the Danny and Jude/Sadie wife swapping scandal!!!

i love this band. criminally underrated.

Road to Rouen is a great album - my only complaint is that it is too short. only 8 proper songs really, and one instrumental. but every song is killer.

Indeed, I've been wanting to hear this for sometime but was too lazy to go find it.

MissMaCo · 07-30-2005, 08:55 AM

sorry to interrupt but what is Rouen ? cause it's the name of a French city here in Normandy

zoney! · 07-30-2005, 01:00 PM

probably named after the town!

meegannie · 07-30-2005, 04:08 PM

I live on Rouen Road. It's probably about me.

yertle-the-turtle · 07-31-2005, 12:15 AM

That will be quite ALRIGHT, then, eh, Megan?

Or do you think perhaps they're just IN IT FOR THE MONEY?

etc. etc.

Anyway I love the new song.

MissMaCo · 07-31-2005, 02:05 AM

awww Meggie !

No I think it's about the French Rouen

It could be like the "road to Ruin" too.
