Vangoffey - Take Your Jacket Off & Get Into It

Well here’s a discovery.

This is an album by the drummer for the band Supergrass, of which I’ve heard, but never listened. If they’re half as fun as this record, I’m going to have to check them out.

This has not only the sound of a classic British pop album, but the spirit as well. The classic albums by the Kinks and the Beatles are full of great tunes, but also a bunch of silliness. And Vangoffey meets both of those criteria.

And it’s not just ‘60s bands he’s taking notes from. T-Rex, Elvis Costello, New Order, ELO, and Blur all inform the sound of this music. On top of that, the disco-punk of bands like LCD Soundsystem brings these songs in to the modern era.

Stream below.

Highlights: Race Of Life • Trials Of A Modern Man • Spilt Milk
