Editing Superdrag (section)

===Elektra years (1996–1999)===
The band released three vinyl singles and their first CD [[Extended play|EP]], ''[[The Fabulous 8-Track Sound of Superdrag]]'' in 1995, and after having one of their [[A-side and B-side|A-sides]] ("Señorita") on a [[CMJ]] comp, soon released their first proper full-length, ''[[Regretfully Yours]]'' in 1996 after attracting the attention of [[Elektra Records]]. Their first single, "Sucked Out," was played frequently on MTV and the radio, but it would be their only mainstream hit; as a result, they were soon classified as a [[one-hit wonder]]. The video clip to the single "Destination Ursa Major" on the same album was Superdrag's second and last video to make it to television.

They were given more financial support from Elektra to record their next album. The product was 1998's ''[[Head Trip in Every Key]]'', which included Davis playing [[theremin]], [[piano]], [[sitar]], [[Organ (music)|organ]].  It was co-produced with the band by [[Jerry Finn]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.allmusic.com/artist/superdrag-p169582 |title=Superdrag &#124; Music Biography, Streaming Radio and Discography |website=[[AllMusic]] |access-date=August 20, 2015}}</ref>

Elektra dropped the band from their label before they finished recording their third full-length album. Pappas left the band to pursue his own career, and the band moved east to sign with [[Arena Rock Recording Co.]], the New York-based label that had put out their "N.A. Kicker" 7-inch single before Elektra signed them.
