Life on Other Planets (2023 Remaster) (3CD)

Wallowing in international success and critical acclaim generated by their three previous albums, Supergrass released Life On Other Planets in 2002.

Eight years of touring had established Supergrass as one of the most highly regarded and accomplished live bands in the world. In January 2001 the band took a break and, armed with wine, cigarettes and acoustic guitars, barricaded themselves into a villa in the South of France. Here they revelled in the relaxed atmosphere, star-gazing and exploring the musical odyssey that would later become Life On Other Planets.

Returning two months later with mini-discs full of ideas, they set to work giving structure to the music before hiring Tony Hoffer (best known for his work with Beck and Air), to produce the album.

The final result, with singles Grace, Seen The Light, Never Done Nothing Like That Before and Rush Hour Soul, was a triumph. The album’s vitality, variety and humour still resonate over 20 years later.

Contains the remastered original album, single B-Sides, demos and live versions, many of which are rare or previously unreleased. Also includes a 20-page CD booklet with sleeve notes by Mark Radcliffe and previously unreleased imagery.
