#97 MUDHONEY (ft. Mark Yarm)

AND introducing WE POD ECONO: an Our Band Could Be Your Life miniseries! We are taking a journey through Michael Azerrad’s chronicle of the 1980’s American underground rock scene, continuing today with Chapter Twelve: MUDHONEY! For the last leg of our trip, we turn to the Pacific northwest to cover Mudhoney, Sub Pop records, the origins of “Grunge”, a little subset of a subset of post-hardcore that probably won’t amount to much anyway. To do so we’re joined by Mark Yarm (not Marc Arm!), the author of “Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge.” Check out Mark’s work at InputMag: https://www.inputmag.com/profile/mark-yarm-19450961 Including his work on this new piece on the king of Pokemon card collectors: https://www.inputmag.com/features/king-pokemon-cards-charizards-gary-haase-profile Songs: Mr. Epp and the Calculations - Mohawk Man The Thrown Ups - Eat My Dump The Thrown Ups - Bucking Retards Mudhoney - Touch Me I’m Sick Mudhoney - You Got It (Keep It Out of My Face) Mudhoney - Mudride Everett True feat.
