Superchunk

Mary Lattimore & Mac McCaughan

Experimental folk artist and harpist Mary Lattimore has a new collaborative album heading our way in March with Superchunk's Mac McCaughan.  "New Rain Duets" looks to be a kind of psychedelic, neo-classical, ambient kind of thing, and going by "III," it's going to be a strange and hypnotic record.  Check out the track below and pre-order here from Three Lobed Recordings.

Superchunk with Damian Abraham

My son has been sick for days, his fever going up and down like a damn rollercoaster.  And i'm worried, but stuck at work, and posting mindlessly about music.  Anyway, Superchunk have a couple new songs out benefiting 350.org.  "Our Work Is Done" features a vocal assist from new label mate, Fucked Up's Damian Abraham, and "Total Eclipse" is a Klaus Nomi cover of all things.  Both are great.  Listen below and then go get them here via Merge, and help raise money to fight climate change.

Superchunk - Break the Glass b/w Mad World

Good news!  New music form alt-rock stalwarts Superchunk, and all the proceeds benefit the Southern Poverty Law Center.  Listen to both "Break the Glass" and the band's cover of Corrosion of Conformity's "Mad World" below and buy them here via Merge.

Daily Bowie (Cover Week 2) - Scary Monsters by Superchunk

Today's Daily Bowie cover comes from the always dependable Superchunk, who supply us with a crunchy, guitar driven version of "Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)," from their 2003 B-sides and rarities collection, "Cup of Sand."  It sounds exactly like it's supposed to.
