Super Relax
Encyclopedia
Super Relax is an EP by Cibo Matto
released in 1997. Four of the nine tracks are remixes of the song "Sugar Water" from the group's debut album, Viva! La Woman
, and "Spoon" would later appear on Stereo ★ Type A. Super Relax was also the first release to feature new members Sean Lennon
and Timo Ellis
.
The release is purely an EP by name, as it is longer than what is normally considered an EP; at close to 43 minutes long, it is several minutes off the length of the debut album by the group. It is now out of print, but is still available relatively cheaply to purchase online.
