SUPERSUCKERS - All they need for the new disc is a kick-ass title.

The rowdy cowpunks from hell known as the Supersuckers have just put the finishing touches on their latest long-player. It'll be their first full-length in four long years, and singer Eddie Spaghetti couldn't be more excited about it. And yet, there's one last loose end he's anxiously waiting to tie up. It has no title. And if you know the Supersuckers, you know how important the album title really is.

"It's tough to follow [2003's] Motherfuckers Be Trippin'," Spaghetti admits in a phone interview, referencing the name of the band's last LP.

Originally called the Black Supersuckers after forming in Tucson, Arizona in 1988, the Supersuckers didn't have any cow in their brand of punk in those days. They played straightahead punk rock. But only one year after getting together, they packed their bags and moved to Seattle, dropped the "black" part of the moniker and kicked out their lead singer. Since he was the guy who wrote all the lyrics, Spaghetti made a quick and easy transition to singing.

It wasn't long before the guys signed to the Supersonic city's Sub Pop Records and put out The Smoke of Hell, the first of what would be three albums it issued on the imprint. While not grunge-oriented like the rest of the Sub Pop roster, the Supersuckers more or less fit in with the label's noise-loving clientele. Everything changed when the band issued 1997's Must've Been High, an album that found the guys embracing the outlaw country of Johnny Cash/Waylon Jennings/Merle Haggard.

"I see it as a turning point in putting longevity on our career," Spaghetti says of Must've Been High. "The fact that we have this country side takes the expiration date off the rocking. It means we can keep doing this even when we get old."

Major labels came a-calling, and the Supersuckers were signed and dropped by Interscope before they even put out an album. Nowadays, the Supersuckers are doing things on their own terms. The band self-releases both its albums and DVDs on its aptly titled Mid-Fi Recordings. And while Spaghetti will never say never when it comes to inking a deal with a distributor again, he's pretty certain the guys will continue down the independent path 'til the day they die.

In fact, while it's been four years since the last Supersuckers full-length, the band's been plenty active in the interim. Spaghetti has toured on his own and playing solo enables him to be more improvisational, as he often just takes audience requests for the evening.

You can expect to hear some tunes off the forthcoming (and yet untitled) Supersuckers album when they make their debut at Parma's Jigsaw Saloon this weekend. (The guys have been around long enough to have played at the old Euclid Tavern back in the days when the sewer system would back up - "it was just awful," Spaghetti recalls of one gig there.) And don't be surprised if the new material sounds a little more, well, mature.

"Well, you know, for us, it's more mature," Spaghetti explains. "I'm speaking relatively, very relatively. We've spent more time on it than we would normally spend at a studio, just making sure the arrangements are right and what-not."

But with a song called "I'm a Fucking Genius," it's not like the guys are writing eloquent ballads for the broken-hearted.

"Right," Spaghetti says. "How mature is it really?"
