Meat Puppets (CD)
“Meat Puppets” was released in Summer of 1982 to near unanimous praise from the rock press. The New York Rocker called it “one of the most forcibly gripping blobs of wax ever created,” and New Musical Express called the Meat Puppets “near-virtuosos, three of the most inspired musicians living under the sun.”
For this reissue, the album has been expanded to nearly an hour in length by the inclusion of the contributions the band made to various compilations at the time, as well as outtakes from the band’s early recording sessions.
The Meat Puppets started as a punk rock band but established their own unique style, blending punk with country and psychedelic rock, and featuring frontman Curt Kirkwood’s warbling vocals. They have influenced various rock bands such as Nirvana, Soundgarden, Dinosaur Jr, Sebadoh and Pavement.
