Bricks was a thing Mac McCaughan did either right before or during the early part of Superchunk, and I'm too lazy to research out the exact dates. There was also a dude from Tsunami working with him, but no one remembers Tsunami and I barely remember them. The very first Merge release was a Bricks cassette, for those that like pointless trivia. Both of the songs found here, as well as anything else Bricks ever released, got compiled into a single compilation called "A Microphone and a Box of Dirt" back in the early nineties. I've owned this record for-fucking-ever. Bricks was never as good as Superchunk to me, but I'm enough of a fanboy that I'll listen to anything Mac releases. IT was true twenty plus years ago when I bought this, and it's still true today. On translucent orange vinyl.
