Supergrass Diamond Hoo Ha Man [single]

---

“Finger-snapping good,
  Supergrass have
  put out an astounding
  performance with
  Diamond Hoo Ha Man —
  their latest single release
  on Parlophone...”
 
ENERGETIC AND EXHILARATING, DIAMOND HOO HA MAN is an electrifying and heart-warming taster from Supergrass of the new album — Diamond Hoo Ha — due to be released on 24 March (2008). Recorded over a couple of weeks in Berlin at the legendary Hansa studios, the album is produced by Nick Launay (Arcade Fire, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Nick Cave).

If this track is anything like the rest of the album, it will be a special treat for the Spring — when you expect roof-down, music-loud cruising. Diamond Hoo Ha Man will be a welcome invasion to anybody's ears and will sound great, even second-hand!

Exuberant, full of fun, lively nights and high-rolling, Diamond Hoo Ha Man is perfect for lifting the spirits and keeping that body shaking.


Supergrass is currently cited as one of the most influential bands around, and it comes as no surprise to hear that Arctic Monkeys issued a personal invitation for the guys to accompany them on their summer stadium tour where the track was given its first airing. The wide-eyed vocals, bombastic bassline and frenetic guitars had the enthusiastic crowd chanting for more. Encores are every bit as thrilling as the first time. Dynamite!

Supergrass have announced their first UK dates featuring all four
band members since bassist Mick's accident last summer (Mick accidentally broke his back whilst on holiday in France).
