		Two years later, Superdrag's rowdy rock ways were found on the Last Call for Vitriol album.

		Knoxville, Tennessee's Superdrag is the very essence of power pop, with astoundingly catchy melodies and harmonies and crunching, fuzzed-out guitars.
		Superdrag's first album, Regretfully Yours ('96), sold pretty well on the strength of "Sucked Out," but their follow-up, the more ambitious and less accessible Head Trip in any Key ('98), did not.
		Shortly thereafter, Superdrag parted ways with the unsupportive Elektra, self-releasing an album of B-sides and demos before resurfacing with a third LP on Arena Rock Records.

		Superdrag's mid '90s rise may not have been as big as some acts; their late '90s fall has not proven as calamitous as others.
		Superdrag has kept a following, that much is obvious, but adding to it is going to be hard work.
		Superdrag lives in a mirrored cage of its own creation in which it's the people embracing music that dares to feature different instruments and textures and performance values that are the heretics, not themselves for persisting with a style that has stayed much the same for 35 years.

		What's unique about Superdrag's major label debut, "Regretfully Yours", is the enthusiastic, against-the-grain power you can hear from the very first brigade of guitars they unleash on the 13 song disc.
		Another version of this Superdrag classic was also used as the opening cut on the band's first six song demo, Stereo 60 Sound, recorded by Knoxville producer and SD friend Nick Raskulinecz.
		The group has an easy camaraderie with each other that buoys their "this isn't a bad job" attitude about the possibility of being pop stars, They strongly believe in their own musical evolution, and are confident it will sustain them beyond the perfunctory one or two album cycle.

		Superdrag, Knoxville's own pop stars in the making, are "busting ass" to make their fairy tale come true since signing with Elektra Records, an arm of Time-Warner, last April.
		Superdrag has gone from being the biggest fish in Knoxville's little pond to fresh bait in the sea of sharks that is the music industry.
		Superdrag had only been together seven months or so when they got their first lucky break in the spring of '94.

		Although there would be no movie stars in the house on this night, even Superdrag had their high-profile reasons for nearly missing the Valentine’s gig: They taped a performance for Late Night With Conan O’Brien earlier in the evening.
		If Superdrag deserved props for hustling up to Albany to honor their Valentine’s show—despite the cancellation by Phantom Planet and the opener OK Go—they were rewarded when a fairly large and adoring crowd turned out to see them anyway, cheering their nearly every move.
		Still, as Superdrag unleashed their dense sonic attack on anthemic songs such as “Keep It Close to Me,” “Phaser” and “Destination Ursa Major,” the dynamic Davis, underneath the stage lights, virtually appeared to vibrate along with the music.

	Superdrag > Biography
		Like the lovable louts in the Replacements or the countrified punks in Uncle Tupelo, Superdrag (singer/guitarist John Davis, drummer Don Coffey, bassist Sam Powers and newcomer Mike Harrison) seems destined for the hallowed musical boneyard of bands whose genre defining pinache and influence far outweigh their record-sells and TRL appearances.
		They've been to the mountaintop of major-label glad-handing thanks to their debut, Regretfully Yours, been slapped on the ass by the folks at MTV and rubbed frets on tour with the likes of Green Day and Weezer.
		Now, three years after the unpleasantness, Superdrag are back doing what they do best - cutting through the bullshit with a wall of fuzz guitar, a pummeling 4/4 beat and a freakish pop sensibility.

		CONSIDERING HOW good the Brit-pop (via Knoxville, Tenn.) outfit Superdrag is, their mid-June South Bay debut at the Cactus Club was a little disappointing.
		Brandishing their influences like flags, Superdrag take off like '60s Mersey-beat boys back with a vengeance, but it's not the mid-'60s alone that fire these guys up.
		You can hear the connection proud and clear in "Cynicality." The album's fifth track is proof that Superdrag has absorbed not only the lessons of the '60s but also the razor-edge rock of that era's second coming a decade later.

		Fans of Superdrag are already well aware of our commitment to the road, and what it amounts to is the four of us spending an average of 8-9 months out of the year away from home.

		As I followed along from one song to the next, it was obvious that they don't like to escape from the same strain of contained, mellow guitar and just plain middle-of-the-road rock and roll.
		My favorite Superdrag song is "I Guess It's American" off their split with The Anniversary.
		Superdrag defintely could have had more hits (they released 4 full lengths before disbanding), but their label screwed them over royally.

		Finally, Superdrag ended their set with an encore of their hit single from 1996, "Sucked Out." If you liked "Sucked Out," then you won't be disappointed with Head Trip In Every Key.

	Superdrag - Last Call For Vitriol (Arena Rock) - Drawer B Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		I’ve been vaguely aware of Superdrag since that “Sucked Out” single came out way back in 1996, but I’d never given them the time of day, mainly because I’d always thought that single was cloying and annoying.
		Superdrag takes a much simpler approach than its peers do, opting for traditional rock licks over gimmicks rife with trends and pretension.
		Superdrag rocks out at full throttle as Davis wails “tell everyone you’re happy and slip into oblivion.” “So Insincere” is an abrupt comedown after such an intense rocker, but it boasts a Foo Fighters-style chorus, take it or leave it.

	Superdrag: Last Call for Vitriol Aversion.com Review
		For as talented as it is, Superdrag’s always been a band that’s had a tough time getting its point across.
		Although there’s still undercurrents of pop that run through all of Superdrag’s latest songs, the band kicks it nice and easy with the same amorphous straight-up rock vibe that can be found, with a trained ear, in the music of everyone from The Beatles and The Replacements to Cheap Trick.
		Superdrag tries its hand on such orders, though when it pours embarrassingly sappy lyrics and campfire-style acoustic guitars ("Safe and Warm") and the sure-fire road to a hangover, blues-rock cum AC/DC ("Stu"), it’s clear the band hasn’t mastered every aspect of mixology.

	Superdrag: In the Valley of Dying Stars - PopMatters Music Review
		When I saw Superdrag open for Pulp a few years ago, I quickly dismissed the group as a bunch of hillbillies who desperately wanted to be British.
		Surviving a change of bass players and record labels since their last release, Superdrag sound incredibly focused and tight on their new album.
		Other tracks demonstrate that Superdrag are equally adept at rock ballads, albeit ones with a skewed point of view.

	TrouserPress.com :: Superdrag
		The same can't be said of Regretfully Yours, which adds the sound of dollar signs to the mix and loses some spunk in the process.
		Signed to a major label, Superdrag assents to clearer sound and more sensible arrangements at the hands of producer Tim O'Heir, who does nothing out of line except drain off just enough of the haphazard charm to make the tunecore commercially presentable.
		That Davis' vulnerably sweet and sour songwriting is in full effect is the album's saving grace, but the audible sense of what Superdrag is about has changed a lot.

	Superdrag: Aversion.com Interview
		Superdrag’s put in the elbow grease to not only develop its chops, but to become pretty ace songwriters to boot.
		Davis is right: Superdrag isn’t even resting its elbows on the outer limits of the envelope, so to say it’s pushing it would be ridiculous.
		It released an odds and sods collection on its own imprint, Superdrag Sound Laboratories, and an EP with Darla Records before it hooked up with the Arena Rock Recording Co. in 2000.

		I guess someone in Superdrag is going to have to lose an eye before they figure out that this gimmick just doesn't cut it.
		Built around their trademark fuzzy guitars and drums buried so low in the mix they sound almost embarrassed to be there, Superdrag's latest offering comes off as a predictable, less intelligent alternative to Built to Spill's There's Nothing Wrong with Love.
		Twelve tracks is apparently not enough breathing room for these guys, as the boys rarely bother to vary from their standard three-minute, three-chord, pop-savvy formula, churning out an album consisting of one texture, one style, and one trick.

	Superdrag: Last Call for Vitriol - PopMatters Music Review
		Then there's Superdrag, who seemed poised to be a success story, but didn't quite make it.
		Whereas In the Valley blew its load with four great songs, then slid into more forgettable material, the songs on Vitriol are of a consistently high caliber most of the way through.
		Like the Hives and the Mooney Suzuki (who cop '60s sounds rather than '70s ones), Superdrag aren't slaves to their influences, but merely incorporate them into something that is at once contemporary and their own.
