Free Music Notes for Diamond Hoo Ha
Free Music Review: Their weakest, but still fun
Hit: 4 Stars
I am a long time Supergrass fan and have all their albums, etc. The first five songs are great, though the lyrics weaker than usual (they're terrible in other words). After that, its a little more dicey. My favorite cuts are 345, Rebel in you and Butterfly. Its hard to pin point why I don't like this album as much as the others. Maybe its the production gloss? I mean Diamond Hoo Ha Man is a good rocker, but the guitars are too compressed, kind of like the Foo Fighters or something. Maybe its the songwriting - even my favorite songs still need more. Oh well, I'm still listening to it periodically after having bought it last spring. That's the ultimate test.Free Music Review: Supergrass is still fantastic!
Hit: 5 Stars
I have been a fan of Supergrass since "I Should Coco" came out. Since then, they have put out some so-so releases (the self titled "Supergrass" and "Road to Rouen" come to mind) but they have never put out a bad album in my opinion. "Diamond Hoo Ha" is going back to their fun Brit-Pop beginnings, I love this album!Free Music Review: Great Rock Music.

If you are actually taking time to read this you probably like Supergrass anyway. But for what it's worth here's my two cents. I don't understand why these guys aren't bigger. I mean damn whats a band got to do? This album got lukewarm reviews but don't believe them. This album starts out great and gets better with each listen. This album is like a burst of seratonin. Check out the crazy sax break in 'Whiskey and Green Tea and you'll know what I mean. Plus these guys have soul. Not many white rock bands have soul anymore but if you like soul music like Curtis Mayfield or Major Lance then listen to 'Rebel in You' and tell me these guys don't have soul.Free Music Review: Plenty of Hoo Ha but no Diamonds...,

I recieved "Diamond Hoo Ha" with much anticipation after the successful "Life on Other Planets" and their best album yet "Road to Rouen", but unfortunately to my ears sems a bit of a disappointment, just a collection of unexceptional, rather average songs apart from "When I Needed You", also "345" is a good song, I like the speeded - up "Clapton" guitar effect but overall the album isn't bad, maybe average, it just lacks the progression, immediacy and novelty of their previous LP. Free Music Review: The weakest Supergrass CD to date
Hit: 2 Stars
I have been a huge Supergrass fan for many years, own all their CD's, their DVD and have seen them in concert. So, I eagerly awaited their newest CD. I have listened to it several times and can honestly say it's a disappointment. It's got a harder edge than the Road to Rouen CD, but lyrically it is lame and immature for a band that has really impressed me lyrically over the years. Very little in the area of catchy melodies. I can remember when I could have a Supergrass song playing in my head for days on end. I could listen to their disks multiple times per day. But this CD is largely forgettable; I expected much more from these guys as I have considered them outstanding songwriters, musicians and performers. This sounds like they stayed up late one night and slapped the whole thing together in a hurry. I still consider myself a fan of the band, but if this is the best they can come up with then Supergrass may want to consider calling it a day.
