Album Notes & Community Reviews

Expanding their monumental debut EP with vital early singles like 'Touch Me I'm Sick', this compilation essentially codified the heavily distorted aesthetics of the burgeoning Seattle scene. Drenched in the fuzz pedals referenced in the title, Mark Arm's sneering vocals cut through a massive, sludgy collision of 1960s garage rock and 1980s hardcore. It is universally regarded as one of the most crucial, foundational texts responsible for the global grunge explosion.
