Watch Superchunk’s bizarre new video for “Staying Home”

by | Sep 16, 2013 | Industry News

Superchunk premiered the new video for “Staying Home” from I Hate Music today. Directed by Taiyo Kimura, ARTINFO describes the video as, “a surreal, frenzied, and hilarious interpretation of the song.”

About the video, Mac told ARTINFO, “We didn’t talk about any ideas, and when Taiyo sent it he warned me, like, ‘At one point, there’s someone wearing a mask of you, I’m eating curry out of a toilet,’ something like that [laughs]. I was like, well, we’ll just have to wait and see [laughs]. People around the office are like, ‘I can’t stop thinking about eating out of a toilet now.'”

Superchunk kick off the next leg of touring in support of I Hate Music this weekend at Riot Fest in Denver followed by an east coast run and a visit to our friends at Late Night with Jimmy Fallon on September 27. A full list of tour dates is below.
