The Dark Stuff Podcast 102: Supersuckers

Dark Stuff Podcast 102 features my interview with Eddie Spaghetti from The Supersuckers. The Supersuckers are a hard rocking, hard living, punk/country/garage/metal/grunge band from Seattle, Washington. They are the self-proclaimed "Greatest Rock n Roll Band in the World." 

The band formed in 1988 in Tucson, AZ, but quickly re-located to Seattle to be a part of the burgeoning "Seattle scene." After one album on Empty Records, the group signed to Sub Pop and became one of the label's most successful bands. Grunge has come and gone, but the Supersuckers are still here! 

I conducted this interview in 2008 with singer/bassist Eddie Spaghetti, but assumed the file was gone after a computer crash, so I never was able to use it. I recently salvaged the interview and am bringing it to you here, for the first time ever. At the time, Supersuckers were celebrating their 20th anniversary as a band, and touring in support of their album, Get It Together. At the time of this posting, the Supersuckers are on the verge of releasing their 16th album, Get The Hell. Besides that, little has changed. 

 Enjoy.
