The other seven inch from the January/February delivery of the Merge subscription series. As you can sorta tell from the photo, it's on bright pink vinyl - it really pops a lot brighter in person.  Unlike the other seven inch, where both tracks were covers, this offers all original material.  Side A is a very catchy track from Mikal Cronin, sounding very much like it would be right at home on his previous full-length of garage pop "MCII."  The other side is a new song from Superchunk called "Good Morning" that also sounds in line with their fantastic record from last year "I Hate Music," in fact I really wish it was on there so I could listen to it all the time and not just when I'm pulling out records.  As with the other subscription single, this isn't available in stores so you're going to have to track down a used copy somewhere.
