Hyper Enough

The opening track of Here's Where the Strings Come In, its first single and video.
Superchunk, from Here's Where the Strings Come In (1995)

The song has no standalone Wikipedia article. A TCNJ Signal retrospective reads it as reflecting on the aging process of the band, an interpretation by the author, not the band. The video has band members attending group therapy to resolve disputes, ending with the therapist's office wrecked and pool noodles used as weapons. PopMatters' Arnold Pan, ranking it eighth in A Dozen Essential Superchunk Songs (August 21, 2013), called it a caffeinated blast of churning riffs and wrote that if there were a theme song for Superchunk, this is it. It appeared in the film Tromeo and Juliet (1996), the video game NCAA Football 06 and the film Yes Man (2008); Wikipedia says it became a minor hit while the band toured Lollapalooza. Setlist.fm counts 231 plays.
