"'Saturday Superhouse'" is a song by Biffy Clyro and the first physical single from their fourth album, 'Puzzle'. It was released on 5 March 2007. The band undertook a promotional tour of UK HMV stores to coincide with the release of the single.
Overview
Simon Neil has commented on the song, saying:
The song was first played live on 6 December 2006 at a warm-up concert at The Ice Factory nightclub in Perth, Scotland and first aired on radio on 'The Rock Show' on BBC Radio 1, on 9 January 2007. B-sides "Scared of Lots of Everything" and "I'm Behind You" were first performed live on 16 December 2005 on the last night of Biffy's four night run at Glasgow's King Tut's Wah Wah Hut, a gig which showcased material that Biffy had written and recorded for the fourth album that at the time was due for release in the summer of 2006. The single was B-listed on the BBC Radio 1 playlist. The song reached number nine in the UK mid-week chart, and number 13 on the UK Singles Chart, becoming Biffy Clyro's highest charting single at the time. It also reached number one on the Scottish Singles Chart, the band's first of four singles to do so (see Scottish Singles and Albums Chart). All three b-sides were recorded by DP Johnson and mixed by Mark Williams.
