In this Throwback Thursday episode, originally released on June 5th, 2023, John Feldmann of Goldfinger sat in for Episode 158 to break down the writing and recording of their 1997 single “Superman.” He shares how the song evolved in the studio, the creative choices that shaped its energetic sound, and how it became an unexpected fan favorite—thanks in part to its inclusion in Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. It’s a behind-the-scenes look at a track that continues to resonate with listeners more than two decades later.
