In episode 152 we're joined by James McColl, frontman of one of the great underrated bands of the Britpop eraThe Supernaturals.
From DIY cassette releases and touring the Highlands of Scotland, to Top 10 albums, hit singles like "Smile" and "I Wasn't Built to Get Up", and sharing stages with everyone from Blur and Supergrass to Robbie Williams, James takes us through the incredible journey of a band that quietly became one of the defining sounds of the late '90s!
We talk about getting signed to Food Records at the height of Britpop, life on the road, the stories behind their biggest songs, Top of the Pops, touring the world, and why The Supernaturals are still making brilliant music today.
If you're a fan of Britpop, indie music, or just love hearing the real stories behind the bands you grew up with, you're going to love this one!

Welcome to The Stupid And Contagious podcast, a podcast focused on bringing you interviews with the bands that defined a generation!
That generation grew up in the 90s with the Grebo bands (Senseless Things, PWEI, Neds Atomic Dustbin, Mega City Four, The Wonderstuff and many more) on the UK side of the pond and quickly joined by the grunge bands (Nirvana, Mudhoney, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and many more) on the US side of the pond.
We are not limiting ourselves to these genres though, we will chart the guitar bands from all genres throughout the decade that was the 1990s.
If you are into 1990s guitar music or just a music lover in general then this is the podcast for you!
