It took Superchunk a bit of time to follow-up on Majesty Shredding. But when they did, with 2013’s I Hate Music, it was well worth the wait, as it was almost as good as its predecessor.
And of course, I couldn’t be the only Replacements fan who chuckled at Superchunk titling an album I Hate Music, given that there’s a pretty great song from Sorry Ma, Forgot To Take Out The Trash with that title. But given that the ‘mats titled their greatest album Let It Be, they better have chuckled instead of grumbled.
