Nomad - Super Fuzz

"... it's a germanium Fuzzrite! Either from late 1966 or early 1967. It shares the exact same guts as my longtime germanium Mosrite Fuzzrite from the same era, and pretty much the same tone. ...

cool little detail to mention about the Nomad Super Fuzz is that if it legitimately has a 1966/67 production date then it would predate the Univox Super Fuzz by at least a year, and was just a few months behind the Marshall Supa Fuzz. Which means that this is the very first pedal ever called "Super Fuzz", if we don't count the Marshall, that is."

Favourite Mudhoney album! Never skip a song

it bothers me that you often don't really hear about people having a "favorite album" the way they might have a favorite movie or favorite video game

Mudhoney - Superfuzz Bigmuff

Ogni rivoluzione musicale ha i suoi protagonisti vivi nei ricordi di chi era presente, di chi ha vissuto i pezzi, le svolte che hanno creato una nuova scena, incendiari live che hanno fatto la storia, ritagli di giornale o semplicemente i vinili vissuti come eredità del cambiamento, del rinnovamento culturale.  Superfuzz Bigmuff dei  Mudhoney è con pieno diritto un documento storico fondante,…

Mark Yarm: Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge (2012)

So, so much has been written about the 1990s alternative rock revolution centered in, of all places, the rainy outpost of Seattle, WA, but there's nothing quite like hearing from the people who wrote, played, and promoted the songs that turned the world on its ear.

Mark Yarm (no relation to Mudhoney leader Mark Arm) took it upon himself to collect and contextualize these stories in 2012's Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge, which, at almost 600 pages, positively bulges with the results of over 250 interviews.

Well, there is a lot to cover, since Yarm starts his investigation in 1980s, post-hardcore America, gradually piecing together the precursors (Green River, the U-Men, the Melvins, Skin Yard, Mother Love Bone, etc.) and the peculiar cultural/musical landscape (including the impact of Sub-Pop and other labels) that eventually nurtured the ideal conditions for grunge's emergence.

Yarm then extensively chronicles the movement's '90s heyday in the words of its biggest stars (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains), secondary players (Screaming Trees, Mudhoney, Tad, etc.), AND relative busts (Gruntruck, Truly, Love Battery, etc.), plus tangential participants (the Melvins, Smashing Pumpkins, Hole, etc.) and even satellite movements like riot grrrl (L7, Babes in Toyland, 7 Year Bitch).

In fact, part of me almost hoped that Yarm would wrap up his, errr ... yarn with Cobain's suicide, but he soldiers on to address the Seattle scene's depressing decline and disintegration amid commercial co-opting (Candlebox, Bush, Stone Temple Pilots) and fatalities.

It's a lot to take in, but it's also a reminder that, maybe the most exciting thing about the grunge era, and why its still recalled so fondly by those of us who experienced it in the moment, is that it wiped the popular music slate clean like almost nothing before or after it.

Oh, sure, Britain's punk rock uprising of the late '70s usually claims the same honor (and it obviously influenced many of the artists in this book), but it simply wasn't as commercially and globally pervasive as what happened in Seattle, in 1991.

That's why many observers not incorrectly described '91 as "the year that punk broke through," and why everyone under 30 suddenly considered loading up on long-johns and flannel in order to relocate to the Pacific Northwest.

the covers for issue one and issue two of alice in grungeland!

i thought i'd be fun to use a lot of grunge album covers as inspiration for the covers of alice in grungeland. so there's a lot of little references to them in the covers.

issue 1 was largely influenced by my favorite, in utero, and it's back cover. for those who don't know, the back cover is a photograph of a collage that kurt cobain made (he was really into like assemblage art and sculpture) so i thought i'd try my hand at it. other inspirations taken from a lot of early graphic design for soundgarden albums (also green river).

issue 2 was heavily inspired by mudhoneys superfuzz bigmuff! there's a little bit of bleach in there to. i was also inspired by zines in the grunge and punk scenes and went with a photo collage of bits of issue 1 art
