The Meat Puppets are an American rock band formed in January 1980, in Paradise Valley, Arizona. The group's classic lineup was [a=Curt Kirkwood] (guitar/vocals), his brother [a=Cris Kirkwood] (bass guitar), and [a=Derrick Bostrom] (drums). One of the more notable groups on the roster of [l=SST Records] (who released most of their early albums), the Meat Puppets could be broadly classified as punk rock, but like most of their SST peers, the Meat Puppets established their own unique style, blending punk with country and psychedelic rock, and featuring Curt's warbling vocals.

Recorded and mixed over three days, 1985’s&nbsp;Up on the Sun&nbsp;is the high-desert psychedelic followup to&nbsp;Meat Puppets II. Curt remembers, “I was trying to get outside of&nbsp;style, if anything. I always thought it was a pretty different album for us, one that stands out.&nbsp; I love the sound of it.”&nbsp;

“It was just like magic,” says Curt, of the SST years. “You could make a record, with no thought to how much it will cost. There were no time worries, no money—but it wasn’t required. There wasn’t any production. You just go in and play. It was like you were doing a gig. Then we kind of figured out how to mess around with production, when we produced&nbsp;Up on the Sun. But even that was done in three days.&nbsp; No one was trying to figure out how to make things sell, they were just letting you do it.”
