I see these seasonal songs as a fun puzzle to solve — writing a song or finding a cover in the same theme that so many artists have investigated in the past, and finding a way to put our own stamp on it. Getting to record five songs for our Wintry Mix EP gave us more room than usual  to stretch out. The version of our own tune (\"Shortest Day of The Year\") on the 7-inch is more rock \/ less explicitly \"Christmas-y\" than the other version. Beyond that we got to explore the genius of Wham!, The Magnetic Fields, and Galaxie 500...light a fire and crank it up!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Merge Records","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl (White)","offer_id":53515600855351,"sku":"MRG900LP-C1","price":21.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Download","offer_id":53515600888119,"sku":"MRG900digital","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0966\/3935\/3143\/files\/mrg900_superchunk_wintrymix_3600.jpg?v=1793826818","url":"https:\/\/mergerecords.com\/products\/superchunk-wintry-mix-ep","provider":"Merge Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
