Superfood

Superfood, one of the freshest new bands out there, are coming to play in Norwich as part of the NME New Breeds Tour alongside Honeyblood and Claws. With hints of early Blur, it's one for the indie kids, and their live shows are notoriously lively. Here's a rundown on what they're all abaaaaaaaaaat... How did you guys meet and why are you called Superfood? It makes you hardto look up on the Internet!We met in a sewer looking for old Fanta bottles. We're called Superfood because there was nothing else we could think of.You’re just about to release your debut album, Don’t Say That. How comeit’s called that?It's called Don't Say That because that's the greatest name for a record ever.How was it recording the album? Was it easier or more difficult than youimagined?The process was very different to how if always imagined it as a kid growing up in bands. It was relatively easy because we are all amazing at our instruments and are very creative individuals. It was hard in the sense that it's tough creating the best record of all time in such a short time constraint.Over the summer you played loads of festivals; which was your mostmemorable?Shrewsbury Fields was a massive one for us. People were enjoying the set so much that they were all sat down on the floor and had to face away and talk to each other because our set was to brilliant. Magic stuff.You also had a residency in London; can you tell me a bit more about that?Yeah, we played four shows in London over a month. North, East, South and West. We made a roof cave in on the first night because there were massive moshers.I’m really interested in the ‘Teletext-y’ style design of your website. Where did that idea come from?It came to me in a dream.You covered Fight for your Right by the Beastie Boys; that’s a pretty brave step, to cross genres like that. How come you decided on that song?We chose it because it's a great song and I wanted to show off our mad appreciation for hip hop and all other stems of urban electronic music.You’re all from Birmingham; what sort of effect has the city had on you and your music?Lots of side effects to be honest. We write music in Birmingham and were from Birmingham. It's a 50/50 crap/amazing place. Half of us want to have fun in the place we are and half of us wants to GTFO.
