Sometimes, god knows how, a band manages not only to avoid the sophomore slump, but also find every bit of its needed traction on its second record. Superchunk was primarily a collection of solid-yet-separable songs grown from the patchy soil of its shared musical obsessions. Founding guitarist Jack McCook had played on that first record. But Connecticut-born Wilbur, a close friend of McCaughan since both were in college, recognized its merits immediately.

So, when they got that first album together, Mac gave me a tape of it. It was really good. But the energy—that first record really holds up. I loved the speed, the guitar sound. We used to buy records together and talk about them, what was good about this, what did we like about that. That first record was an encapsulation of everything we loved about music. Still, Superchunk was the product of a young band in the process of getting its act together. The pace at which the album was recorded, for good or ill, captured that developing state.

Work on No Pocky began while the band was only starting to promote the first record. The addition of Wilbur, and a more tightly focused approach to composition, allowed the new songs to arrive in a quick, intense flood, often beginning in short ideas that McCaughan and Wilbur put onto four-track. The words always came last.

Not in the sense that we had months to do it, but we all lived in the same town in the time leading up to the album being made. So, by this point, we were more of a real band, and figuring out how to write songs that worked for us, especially the roles Jim and I were playing on guitar.

We got to know some really interesting characters, and got to know each other really, really well. They continued to develop material throughout the tour, catching rehearsals every chance they could. But all through the drive up the coastline, Wilbur, as noted above, was in rough shape. He ended up having to miss the Portland show at Satyricon, which remains the only date on which Superchunk ever played as a trio. By the time the van reached Olympia, Wilbur was down for the count.

A course of antibiotics had begun bringing Wilbur back when they finally hit Chicago. He still had to lie on the floor during some of the overnight sessions.
