Mudhoney is an American alternative rock band that was formed in Seattle, Washington in 1988. The band was created by vocalist Mark Arm and former guitarist Steve Turner after the split of the influential Seattle band Green River.

Although Mudhoney did not achieve the same level of fame as some of their label and city mates, they were a significant part of the early 90s grunge scene. With their enduring presence, they have become one of the most respected and long-lasting groups from that era.

Known for their raw and energetic sound, Mudhoney has left a lasting impact on alternative rock music. Their contributions to the genre continue to be celebrated by fans around the world.

Short for "Subterranean Pop" 

The label was an outgrowth of [a=Bruce Pavitt]'s Olympia, WA based (print) fanzine, which became the well respected cassettezine of the same name. 

After his move to Seattle he ran a music column in the Seattle Rocket also called Sub Pop.

After initial forays into the record label world with a [a=Green River] 7" (not officially on Sub Pop) and the Sub Pop 100 LP, the label exploded onto the indie scene with four influential colored vinyl 7"s which included [a=Mudhoney]'s "Touch Me I'm Sick" which made the year-end top 10 playlist of nearly every music journalist in the world.

Subsequent hyping of the label in the English music press put them on the map, and grunge was born.

Label-Code is 03159; rarely found printed on releases (basically only on releases manufactured/licensed by Warner/WEA Germany)

Three Mudhoney albums have been lovingly remastered and pressed on coloured vinyl with download, sounding as fresh as they did on release. Aside from a brief re-release of Superfuzz Bigmuff in 2000, none of these albums have been available on vinyl since the early 1990s. Each is remastered from the original tapes, as the original masters have been lost. Superfuzz Bigmuff includes a poster and improved graphics.

Mudhoney.
