That's Really Super, Superchunk
For a run in the 1990s these folks were one of my favorite bands, so if you don't know them, visit YouTube for tons of good videos and music.

I was just listening to my Merge Records fifth and tenth anniversary compilation CDs this past weekend. They handle Superchunk as well as Lambchop, Portastatic, East River Pipe, Magnetic Fields and Archers of Loaf, among others. At least they had them all in '99. Great label.
Merge was/is great and was created by Mac McCaughan and Laura Ballance of Superchunk, actually. Mac is also Portastatic.And a busy man.

I knew that at some point in my life.
