Mac McCaughan
Box Batteries 7''
Merge
2015
Rating: 7 dead roots out of 10
I was certain I both owned and had reviewed this Mac McCaughan seven inch when it first came out on 2015, but here we are now.
This version of "Box Batteries" is different than the version found on his full-length from the same year "Non-Believers." Not drastically different mind you - really, this one just feels like the production is a little more lo-fi, lending it almost an old school Guided By Voices vibe.
The b-side "Whatever Light" is fine - your typical straight forward, mid-tempo Mac / Portastatic / Superchunk song. It would have fit in fine on one of the late nineties or early oughts Superchunk albums (aka "Indoor Living," "Come Pick Me Up," or "Here's To Shutting Up.")
