Reviews Customer Reviews for March To Fuzz embarassment of riches Rating: I will try not to descend into total hyperbole, but let's just get it said: Mark Arm has one of the best rock'n'roll voices ever. Part punk snarl, part diffident social observer, part nihilistic slur, Arm can deliver songs like "You Stupid A**hole" in ways that make you run for the volume knob -- to turn it up. It can't be loud enough.
Mudhoney has tons of great, swaggering records peppered with A-side worthy songs... and those songs are nearly all here. I could list them all, but I think the track listing is already on view up above.
As singles collections go, this one is pretty hands-down awesome. And since Mudhoney never really mattered to pop-culture consumers, the tracks are (as ably said above) selected on aesthetics. In addition, a second disc compiles a cornucopia of outtakes and B-sides, clever covers and lost diamonds. They join the short list of demi-gods that have emerged from the Pacific Northwest: The Wipers, Dead Moon, The Sonics, Hendrix et al.
Customer Reviews for March To Fuzz Cd They're still around? Rating: There was a point in my life around 1992 when I tried really hard to like Mudhoney. Now, that's a stupid thing to do, trying to like a band.
Anyway, a few months ago I borrow this from a friend... turns out I still don't like Mudhoney. I find most of their stuff unlistenable. There's a couple good songs, "You Got It", etc. But the covers are my favorite part. I thought that was a cool thing to do. I also think its cool how Arm and Turner give tidbits about each song on the album. Maybe they're cool guys, but I still think their band sucks.
