5dots (in brief)

  1. [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

    I told my ladyfriend today that I’d spent most of my workday listening to Superchunk, and she said, “what, was it the 90’s in your office?”

    Truth be told, I have been aware of Superchunk for a very long time but never bothered to listen to them. They always seemed like part of a scene that wasn’t really for the likes of me; maybe they were for older kids. But they’ve been promoting their newest album this year quite a bit, and I finally actually heard some songs of theirs, and I was intrigued. I was told that the best place to start is their singles collections, and that definitely served me well: I immediately fell in love with this song.

    Slack Motherfucker

    Is it kind of a 90’s sentiment, with the slacking and all? Sure. But it’s also super-catchy, uptempo and a little bit anthemic; the kind of song that makes you feel a little better about working in an office.

    Today, though, I fell in love with this song:

    Precision Auto

    This is one of the most insistently catchy songs I have ever heard. Such energy.

    I had to fight to urge to just put these two songs on loop all day today.
