During the period leading up to 2004’s Really Really Happy, The Muffs had been keeping a busy schedule of live performances as well as working through an ever-increasing list of songwriting demos from singer / guitarist Kim Shattuck. Once this group of songs was narrowed down, the band set to recording them for the album. Appearing as bonus material on the expanded 2-CD reissue of Really Really Happy, New Improved Kim Shattuck Demos represents the only vinyl appearance of these 16 tracks, composed and performed entirely by Kim.
