Author: Paul TraversPublished 15th Aug 2025

Supergrass have today announced a 20th-anniversary edition of their fifth studio album, ‘Road to Rouen,’ set for release via BMG on 3rd October.

The reissue has been fully remastered and will feature a number of previously unheard live recordings, including covers of songs by Gil Scott Heron and The Doors.

It also includes a previously unreleased studio track, the dreamy 'Don't Leave Me Alone', which you can hear below.

Listen: Supergrass – ‘Don’t Leave Me Alone’

Supergrass bassist/vocalist Mick Quinn said of the album: "From a lost winter in the French countryside we attempted an experimental, uplifting record far outside our comfort zone.

“’Road To Rouen’ became a compact joy that still holds a cherished place in our hearts. Vive la différence."

‘Road To Rouen’ was originally released in 2005 and reached No. 9 in the UK charts.

It marked a musical departure for the band, with a more reflective sound and orchestral arrangements.

The reissue will be available digitally, on a Gatefold 2LP Petrol and Forest Green vinyl with printed inner sleeves and 2CD Digi sleeve

Both physical formats will be accompanied by a booklet with liner notes written by Mark Radcliffe.
