**Ltd Loser Edition!
The world is filling up with trash. Humanity remains addicted to pollution despite the planet getting hotter by the minute. People are downing horse dewormer because some goober on television told them it cured COVID. Tom Herman of pioneeringavant garageband Pere Ubu still doesnt have his own Wikipedia article. The apocalypse, it seems, is stupider than anyone couldve predicted.
Fortunately, the absurdities of modern life have always been prime subject matter for Seattle-based band Mudhoney. The foursome take aim at all of them with barbed humor and muck-encrusted riffs onPlastic Eternity, their 11th studio album.
Mudhoney (vocalist Mark Arm, guitarist Steve Turner, bassist Guy Maddison, and drummer Dan Peters) remain the ur underground group, their gnarly primordial punk stew and Arms sharply funny lyrics as potent a combination as theyve been since the bands formation in the late 1980s. From taking on climate change from the perspective of the climate if the climate tried to play guitar like Jimi Hendrix (Cry Me An Atmospheric River) to a driving rock and roll song about taking drugs meant for livestock (Here Comes the Flood) to a classic punk attack on treating humanslikelivestock (Human Stock Capital),Plastic Eternityis a heady run through all the proto-genres of guitar rock with a keen eye on the inanities of the world in the 2020s.
