Reviews Customer Reviews for Piece Of Cake      Average Material from a Great Band      Rating:      Goodness... I still remember buying this album via mail-order BMG club circa 1992. Music was SO SO good at this time and unlike 2006 there was always a million CDs I wanted to buy. It was a very exciting time to be into underground music. Mudhoney, along with fIREHOSE and ALL were my absolute favorites of this early 90's era and I gobbled up everything these bands made. Needless to say I revisited this album 10+ years later and it is "decent" but not as magical as I once favored it as a teen. Contrary to some reviews I feel there IS skippable stuff here with 4 truly great cuts amongst the 17 tracks. Those 30 second "title-less" intro / jam things sound dated and a bit goofy now. I had read this album was rushed in the studio and it was not even held in super high regard by the band members. This was the peak of the Seattle "Grunge Gold Rush". Mudhoney is a very good band. Get this one after you have Superfuzz, EGBDF, and My Brother the Cow. Even the EP 5 Dollar Bob is as interesting minus the filler of Piece of Cake.     Customer Reviews for Piece Of Cake Cd      Abrasive rock      Rating:      Mudhoney was doing grunge before it became cool, and there are a lot of good tracks here. It took some time for this disk to grow on me, but grow it did. I can't compare it to their other releases since I haven't heard any of them. Tunes such as "Make It Now," "No End in Sight," and "Ritzville" rock hard until the slow, mournful final track, "Acetone." Good stuff.
