What’s yr fave song by Shudder To Think?

Last year I interviewed Shudder To Think vocalist Craig Wedren. It just came out today as the start of the new season of my podcast. I’ve been a big fan of theirs since I first got hip to their music, which sadly was around the same time they disbanded. It was great to hear oral history from the source about the group’s beginnings through their very unpredictable, more fluid years toward the end of their initial run, and how they came back together recently. If you haven’t heard their latest single on Dischord it sounds like classic Shudder To Think picking up where they left off. I made this papercut portrait with scissors and a glue stick this morning to celebrate the revival of STT. Original pic in the comments. I’m don’t fancy myself a visual artist but I like to dabble, but I was happy with it. Anyway if you wanna hear about Shudder To Think this is a pretty good way to do it. I edit these so it’s not a lot of unnecessary host banter. You can find it easy if you want.

After moving to D.C. in 1985, then 16-year-old Craig Wedren helped shape Shudder To Think into a standout act within the Dischord Records scene, evolving from a raw hardcore-adjacent sound into a complex style that eventually earned the respect of Ian MacKaye. The band pivoted to Epic Records in 1994 during the big alt-rock boom, releasing the sonic anomoly Pony Express Record before facing label pressure to produce more commercial hits for their follow-up, 50,000 B.C., which would be the group’s final studio album to date. Following their 1998 split, Wedren built a prolific career in film and television scoring, but the group reunited in 2025 to record new material. Despite a 20-year hiatus from their signature style, their collective muscle memory remained intact, allowing them to integrate modern digital tools with the foundational creative energy that defined their early years. Shudder To Think’s latest single, “Thirst Walk,” is out now on Dischord records. I spoke with Craig Wedren from his home studio in Los Angeles.

This song comes from her self titled album from 1975, a quirky little country-pop masterpiece. Margo Smith!
