Supergrass
Moving (Parlophone)

A fabulous return to form after the plodding 'Pumping On The Stereo', 'Moving' is vintage Supergrass - as fresh as a summer breeze (as a great man once said), instantly memorable and like nothing they've released before, it alternatively floats and stomps before it finally, spectacularly, soars. Every individual part of this record - the vocals, the guitars, even the handclaps - sounds better than ever. Maturity could have sucked the life out of the exuberant youngsters we once knew as Supergrass; instead, it has made them stronger, tighter, classier. This is music to stretch out your arms and fly to. In slow motion.
