Video – Superchunk, ‘Crossed Wires’

We love Superchunk and here’s why.

In this video, bassist Laura Ballance puts a camera around her cat’s neck. It’s like a bad night on Kitties Gone Wild interspersed with the band playing their song “Crossed Wires” from last year’s Majesty Shredding.

Watch – Superchunk, “Crossed Wires” (video):

And if you’re wondering how the band (two of whom, Laura and Mac, run indie label Merge Records – home of Arcade Fire) are celebrating Record Store Day tomorrow:

Superchunk are celebrating Record Store Day, the band will release a split 7-inch of Misfits’ covers with Coliseum that is limited to 1,500 copies on three different colors of vinyl. As well, a remastered version of the classic 1995 ‘chunk record Here’s Where the Strings Come In will be reissued on vinyl and CD along with a bonus download of acoustic demos and The Clambakes Vol 5: Cup of Clams.
