Supergrass are back with an all new album called “Diamond Hoo Ha” and hopefully this is the album that brings these guys some respect in North America. They’ve never released a bad album and their live show is something to be cherished, but they can also release a mean music video. The video for “Bad Blood”, the second single off of Diamond Hoo Ha is no exception. With wild camera movements mimicking the movements of objects on the screen, this clip with make your head spin (kind of like the intro). Check this video out and show some love for Supergrass, they sure deserve it:

Mick Quinn, the bassist for british rock band Supergrass broke 2 vertabrae in his back and shattered his heel in a bizarre accident in the south of France. Apparently he was sleepwalking and walked right out of a first floor window. Thankfully the doctors expect him to make a full recovery, but the band has had to cancel a few shows as a result. Get well soon Mick!
