Overview Edit

I Should Coco is the debut studio album by English alternative rock band Supergrass, released through Parlophone in May 1995. Supergrass were formed in 1993 by Gaz Coombes, Mick Quinn and Danny Goffey and they released their debut single from the album, "Caught by the Fuzz", in May 1995 on the small independent local label Backbeat Records and was re-released with Parlophone. The title of the album is cockney rhyming slang for "I should say so", although the band have stated that the album doesn't have a particular meaning.

I Should Coco was recorded in Cornwall and produced by Sam Williams, who had been impressed by the band while scouting in Oxford. At the height of the Britpop era, the album became the band's most successful release when it reached number one on the UK Albums Chart and subsequently gained platinum status for sales of album, which reached 900,000 copies worldwide and 500,000 in the UK.

5 stars Super Psycho Pop
Their sound on this album has been likened to Green Day and early Who, both of which are right-on- but I would also add they have the sound of Sid Barret-era Pink Floyd (i.e. their poppier but still wierd days)- "Strange Ones" indeed! Great post-punk UK rock with great pop hooks and cool lyrics.
