"Goin' Out" by Superdrag

"Look at me, I can write a melody, but I can't expect a soul to care."

That is why this blog exists. We're trying to get people to care about songs or bands that didn't get the day in the sun that they deserved.

It's a line from the one and only chart appearance by the hugely underrated power pop band from Tennessee called Superdrag. The song: "Sucked Out," which peaked at #72 in 1996. It should have done much better and Superdrag should be a household name. 

Superdrag's second and third records were even better than the debut, but somehow their gift for melody and hooks evaded wide exposure. "Goin' Out" is a standout from their 2001 effort, "In The Valley Of Dying Stars."
