about

Entirely self-recorded and self-financed, The Sky’s In Love With You is Ups and Downs first new music in around 30 years. 'Sky' is a vinyl length journey into melody and melancholy, hooks and harmonies, jingle and jangle, that will warm the aging hearts of Ups and Downs fans and excite younger lovers of classic indie pop.

Includes bonus megamix of Some Sleep (parts 1 and 2), not on the original album.

Wow. After I heard “You Are Everything”, I agreed with Steve that there was no way you could possibly top that masterpiece. I don't think you did, but with this album, I'd say you equalled it. David-Olivier

I love every single album Superchunk has released & this one is definitely one of their best. A little bit more mellow than past albums but the past 2 years have sucked for everyone. And yet, they managed to make this album of great music. Custom Made In 1968
