Videodrone PSA With Superchunk (Part Two)


When I got the bright idea to post a bunch of Superchunk videos today (largely because I felt like having an excuse to listen to some Superchunk), I checked the archives and found Jess’ tribute to the act in December, saving myself from some embarrassment at the hands of today’s already testy comment section. Despite Jess stealing a few of the clips I planned to post, I think without question a second tribute to the band is in order, starting with “Precision Auto” above.

“Package Thief”

“Throwing Things”

Odd live video of “Slack Motherfucker”

It was like a dream come true and how crazy it was talking with Mac on the phone about putting our record out [on Merge]. I spent most of my teenage years listening to Superchunk and being obsessed with Merge bands. It was very surreal.
