About this episode

The episode features the song 'Supersize' by Megasound, a collaboration between Bad Bad Hats and Party Nails, celebrating early 2000s rock music and nostalgia.

Today’s Song of the Day is “Supersize” by Megasound, a new collaboration between Bad Bad Hats and Party Nails. From Bad Bad Hats : Megasound is the combined musical power of ourselves and our friend Elana Carroll, aka Party Nails. Many years ago we were discussing our shared love of early 2000s rock music and the Josie and the Pussycats live action movie (and accompanying soundtrack, obviously) and a sparkling vision of a new band began to materialize. Nostalgia! Fun! Rock and roll! Today we unveil the results of our wild dreaming for all the world to see! Megasound The first single is called “Supersize” and some of you may recognize it if you subscribe to the Bad Bad Hats’ Song Club . We aimed to mimic the Brit Rock sounds of our youth in a song about indulging in joyous excess and not letting life pass you by. We upped the throwback ante by filming an Apple ad-inspired music video at the Museum of Illusions here in the Twin Cities with the help of our frequent collaborator Dan Stewart. Megasound will be released on Aug. 7 on Don Giovanni Records.
