In 1988 Mudhoney released their debut 7" single, "Touch Me I'm Sick," and followed up with 'Superfuzz Bigmuff', a six-song EP so overflowing with chaotic rock energy it warped thousands of minds, and inspired countless guitarists to immediately search for the titular fuzz pedals. These first recordings were so life-affirming upon their release, connecting everything great about the sixties (biker movies, fuzzboxes, old guitars, three-minute songs) with the frothing, punk rock of the early '80s, that grunge was born.
