Album Notes & Community Reviews

Further distancing themselves from the blistering punk energy of their early years, Superchunk embraces a notably mature, melancholic aesthetic. The album relies on subtle acoustic guitars, pedal steel, and string arrangements to deliver a highly melodic, introspective, and bittersweet indie rock collection.
