This week will be known as "Superchunk Week" here at Shaft Went To Africa, I Went To Perkins.. There's no real reason for it besides the fact that their newest album, Majesty Shredding, was my favorite album of 2010 and because I watched a bunch of their videos over the weekend and wanted to share them here. I'll be posting a different video each day in chronological order from oldest to newest. Hopefully it will show the different sides of this great band and if it turns even one more person into a fan it will be well worth the small amount of time I've spent.
"Digging for Something" is the first track off last years fantastic Majesty Shredding and it really set the tone of the album. It's a classic Superchunk song and the video is great as well. It had been nine years since the band had made a new record and the video pokes a lot of fun at bands who regroup with only one or two long time members in the fold and hipsters. It's always good to put those damn hipsters in their place.
