Pretty much what it says on the tin...
Following their split in 2003, pop oddities Ooberman have announced their reformation.
The band currently have no plans to play live, but have already recorded an as-yet untitled new album, to be released later this year.
Slated for the Summer, it appears the album will be self-released, with distribution through Cargo.
I'm sure we'll keep you up to date with any future plans, as they are unveiled.

was just trying to
remember the words to blossom's falling the other day...
they weren't much cop after that first LP/first few eps, mind...
eee!
i was just about to ask if this was true, as i'd heard a rumour. yay!
yay!
yay!
yay!
I was wondering
just the other day if they were still going.
I seem to remember
them being truly awful. both on record and live.
this
pleases me.
Noooooooooooooooooooooo!
HOT BEES! BORED IN THE TREES!
Arghhhghghhhhgh?!?!?

wtf,
why does aeveryone love this band so much? They are terrible, am I on my own here?
Shorely Wall
was a good tune as far as i remember
nope
i think they're crap even wen i was a kid listening to blossoms falling n all that rubbish i knew they were crap
people only cared about them cos they'd been on transcopic
i
just listened to shorley wall - and it sound like 'my life story' who were also pretty fuckin shit
strange
i found one of their albums in the £3.99 sale at Virgin earlier today and nearly bought it..
this is pretty much the best thing ever.
just so's you know.
awsome!!
!!!
ace
i had no idea Ooberman split people down the middle so much.
I love everything they've ever done and can't wait for this album/live shows.
x x
Huzzah-berman
I adore this band but alas, am crap at puns.
Have been celebrating by doing the mash-potato for around a day now. My arms hurt.
In case you're wondering, I'm typing this with my toes.
True story.
There was one really good song on their album
that I liked - just thought I'd chuck my tuppence worth YAY in YAY there.
*Crosses fingers*
Hey Petrunko is one of the best albums of the last 10 years, I really hope they know what they're doing by reforming - wouldn't want the history to be tarnished. We'll see.
Anyway, yes. Hey Petrunko = ACES.
I was a big fan...
...so let's hope they don't ruin it this time with:
1) Being too drunk to perform much of the time, which wrecked pretty much all but the first couple of shows I saw (and those couple of shows were great)
2) Getting too carried away on the D&D nonsense that permeated their later work
That's about it really. If they can be as good as they originally were, then good news.
how strange
only yesterday I said to a person, 'remember ooberman? they'd be great now...'
