The band signed to Parlophone Records in 1994 and produced I Should Coco (1995), the label's best-selling debut album since the Beatles' Please Please Me. Their first album's fourth single, "Alright", was an international hit. The band went on to release five more albums: In It for the Money (1997), Supergrass (1999), Life on Other Planets (2002), Road to Rouen (2005) and Diamond Hoo Ha (2008), as well as a compilation called Supergrass Is 10 (2004). In August 2009, the band signed to Cooking Vinyl and began work on their seventh studio album, Release the Drones. The album remains unreleased and unfinished.
