Superchunk

Songs in the Key of Yikes

£13.99

Released: 22nd August 2025. 'Bruised Lung'. 'No Hope'. 'Care Less'. 'Climb the Walls'. 'Everybody Dies'. Scanning the tracklist of 'Songs in the Key of Yikes', one is given to wonder: Is Superchunk okay? In a world that's arguably darker than the one that greeted 'Wild Loneliness' in 2022 or 'What a Time to Be Alive' in 2018, are any of us okay? 'It's always been the case that everyone is going through something that you may not be aware of', notes Mac McCaughan. 'This is currently more true than ever - but also the case that we are all going through some things together. In the face of that, what good is art and where is happiness found? (Spoiler alert: I don't know.)' In seeking an answer, 'Songs in the Key of Yikes' unleashes a sound that is triumphant and bright in the darkness, Majesty Shredding in overdrive. Lead single 'Is It Making You Feel Something' sets the tone early with the band - McCaughan, Laura Ballance, Jim Wilbur, and Laura King - building an anthem out of the potential for joy, diving into slop-polluted waters ('now fakes are faking everything/that once made your poor heart sing') and emerging with a pearl.
