Supreme Dicks started in Amherst, MA in the 80s, played through the 90s, then quit. Jagjaguwar released a retrospective on them in the Fall and now the band is playing a reunion show at SXSW. I can't do their story justice but read the comment on this blog for their history. They had quite a cult following. Interesting comment from the blog: "Among those who have played as honorary Supreme Dicks: Courtney Love, Neutral Milk Hotel, Beck, Cat Power, J Mascis and Lou Barlow, Jens Jurgensen of Boss Hog..."
This song doesn't sound like something that would come from a band called Supreme Dicks. It reminds me of Modern Lovers, also originally from Amherst. I think their music is all over the map, though, based on what I've read. We'll see.
