Supergrass's fifth studio album, recorded after a series of unfortunate public and private setbacks including drummer Danny Goffey's tussle with the British tabloids and the death of vocalist Gaz Coombes's mother, finds the band at its assured best. It's both a consolidation of the group's wide range of influences (notably the Beatles, on tracks like the Lennon-esque "Low C") and a journey through unexplored territory, the latter best illustrated by the album's opener, "Tales of Endurance (Parts 4, 5 & 6), where a neo-psychedelic intro rapidly morphs into a riff-heavy coda simultaneously reminiscent of rock warhorses Led Zeppelin and the cutting edge post-punk revivalists Franz Ferdinand.
