Superchunk

Perhaps the quintessential US indie band of the 1990s, Superchunk picked up where '80s acts like Husker Du and the Replacements left off, at the intersection of pop and punk, adding a '90s twist and defining a new generation of alternative rock. Led by Mac McCaughan, the band released a string of albums whose punky power and melodic bent provide fodder for a subsequent generation of punk-pop and emo bands. On top of all that, the label Superchunk started, Merge, became one of the most important indie-rock sources of the era, hosting the Arcade Fire, Dinosaur Jr., Lambchop, the Magnetic Fields, and countless others.
