Seaweed was a band from Tacoma, Washington who were active throughout the 1990s . Their style of music is primarily Punk Rock , although it bears a slight resemblance to Grunge , due mostly to its 'dirty' sound. In their early days Seaweed was signed to Washington's Sub Pop , but later released albums on Hollywood Records and Merge Records . Seaweed's contemporaries during the time of their existence included Mudhoney , Samiam , Jawbreaker and tourmates Superchunk and Quicksand . The band toured extensively in the United States as well as overseas, including shows in Brazil with Garage Fuzz . They were well-known for their cover of Fleetwood Mac 's Go Your Own Way , which appeared in the movie '' Clerks ''. In 2006, their song "Losing Skin" appeared on the soundtrack for the video game NHL 2K7 {Link without Title} .

On May 15th 2007, the band announced, via MySpace , that they had reformed and were writing a new album, tentatively titled Small Engine Repair. They also announced several live dates.
