Apply megawatt tunes and career-best performances and you’ve got an album to top even 2002’s criminally neglected "Life On Other Planets."
-
This is grown-up rock, with an adult swagger, from one of today's most gifted songwriting bands.
-
Overall, it’s a brash, shiny, confident record, careering along on a second wind, or as one jaunty number puts it, “the return of inspiration.”
-
This isn't a bad record, it's just a laboured and peculiarly joyless one, all those things that Supergrass were once the opposite of.
-
You get the feeling that, in the long run, Diamond Hoo Ha is destined to be remembered as one of the lesser works in their canon.
-
MojoThis muscular, everyman rock could have been produced at any time in the past 35 years, but has charm and character nevertheess. [Apr 2008, p.104]
-
Now Diamond Hoo Ha, find Supergrass mired in a sort of stasis. We always knew the lads were limited to just three chords; with efforts that feel measured, contrived, and dawdling, they finally sound like it.

GregApr 18, 2008Did these critics even listen to the album? I'm hard pressed to imagine a single weak track on this entirely cohesive and entertaining album.

MichaelS.May 1, 2008Great album, better than Road to Rouen which I liked too. One tip though - give it more than one listen!
