The Superchunk Solution →[More:]Recently my trusty old Civic (200,000 miles) has started making ominous squealing and grinding noises. This morning I found that if I played Superchunk at full volume on the car stereo, the problem went away! Feel free to apply the Superchunk Solution to your own problems.

A method of squeak and rattle repair well known to the turbo Dodge community.

The Superchunk Solution and $5 will still get you on a city bus to lots of places in America!

That track sounds pretty good. Superchunk seem to have a fairly large back catalogue - where's a good place to start?

I'd rather not apply the Superchunk Solution, because one day, you'll grind to a screeching halt and you won't hear it.

You'll be stranded in the middle of nowhere...it may be a desert or a snowy plain, you'll have missed your cell phone beeping dead battery and we'll never hear from you again.

Towing will cost a fortune. If you're alive.

So I'll crank it up knowing I'll get to where I'm driving, at least.

Otis,
I mean the above, tongue in cheek, you understand. :)

TheDonF:
Tossing Seeds: The Singles Collection is a great place to start. The posted track is from, No Pocky for Kitty, which is also a terrific album.

No worries. I don't own a cellphone so I'm screwed anyway.
