Grungers produce a Classic,
This review is from: Piece of Cake (Audio CD)
Mudhoney are a band often forgotten about in the grunge arena. Compared to Pearl Jam, Nirvana, The Screaming Trees et al, it isn't hard to see why. But that is not to say that Mudhoney had nothing to offer to the grunge genre.Nearer in style to the fashionable garage rock of The Strokes and White Stripes, Mudhoney also showed the lighter side to grunge. It didn't have to be depressing. This album is a classic show of what they offered, humour and parody. Song like Suck You Dry and Acetone contain all the elements of Grunge classics, heavily distorted guitars and drawling vocals. This CD comes much recomended and is an antidote to any cheerless indie or rock, and certainly worth investing in if you are a fan of other grunge and have never experienced Mudhoney.

The fuzz of life,
By
This review is from: Piece Of Cake (Expanded) (Audio CD)
This album is a mix of compelled grunge and stadium rock mixed in with the mental fuzz that we call mudhoney. Mudhoney start their magnificent album with something called 0.38 i think it is a complete riptake of The immigrant ong by led zep. Its halarious. It also contains Suck you dry my personal favourite.Do you know many other bands who shove 28 songs in there album, the closest for me is pixies wave of mutilation, if ur a mudhoney fan this is a certain buy for you. Mark Arm produces another album of fuzz for our brains to devour! Enjoy listening!

This album will make you happy,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Piece of Cake (Audio CD)
This is my favorite Mudhoney album. This is one long record of really great songs, one right after the other. As everyone else has said, theres not really any filler on the album. Their earlier albums are probably regarded more as classics then this one but as far as I'm concerned this album is actually more fun to listen to ... and it came out in 1992 when music was still good right?

Excellent,

Mudhoney delivered the goods on their major label debut. I love Make It Now and No End In Sight but the whole record rocks relentlessly. Acetone is a stylistic left turn but always sticks with me too.

grunge deluxe,
By braincoat "braincoat" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Piece of Cake (Audio CD)
If anybody asked me what exactly 'grunge music' sounded like, this is the record I'd play. Mudhoney were there from the very beginning and stood somewhere between Seattle's trashy underground and it's more popular bands. Grunge is about initially wanting to play the cool sounds you love to listen to but realizing that you're not really able to. Or, at least, about being too lazy to keep trying. It's produced by self-proclaimed losers who start to rape musical ideas. You'll find that in perfection on 'Piece of Cake': Noisy lo-fi-songs, nosy lo-fi-vocals and fuzzy guitars, creating some sort of 'garage-rock'n'roll'. They don't use any style-corset. It is what it is. Loud and dirty, but honest. One might call it 'Seattle Soul'. And on this album, Mudhoney found the right mix of fast and slower songs, with a few funny suckerpunches at other music styles, and no filler material. It's their best one.
