"Diggin' A Hole" led off Hemi-Vision, Big Sugar's 1996 album on A&M, as its first single, and the Canadian band's blues-rock stomp found a home fast: it climbed to No. 9 on Canada's RPM Hit Tracks chart.
It had legs, too. When Big Sugar's next album, Heated, got its US release in 1999, the song was added to that version, and it also turned up on the compilation Hit Zone 3. Canadian rock radio never let go of it: between 1995 and 2016, only four songs by Canadian artists got more airplay on the country's rock stations.
