Backspacer is the second and final studio album by New Zealand rock band Supergroove, released on 19 September 1996.

Before recording, creative differences saw vocalist Che Ness and trumpeter Tim Stewart fired from the band.

[1] The album is musically very different from their first, being less funk and more straight rock, with a darker and more melancholy feeling in songs like "Dear Mother (Don't Let Me Go)", "This Stupid Grin" and "The Decline and Fall of Us Both."

Across the globe, the album received a poor review in Norway's largest newspaper Verdens Gang.

Giving it a dice throw of 3 out of 6, the reviewer stated that Backspacer lacked "the same drive and energy" as Traction, and that the songwriting was "middle of the road".
