In relation to the reissue of their emblematic second album, Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge (1991), which will be released on July 23rd in a remastered deluxe edition on the occasion of its 30th anniversary, it should be noted as the album that revitalized the band and marked their future. This new edition includes the complete original work, plus an extra LP with fifteen songs and a CD with additional material, in which there are seven never-before-released songs.

Keith Cameron, a journalist for Mojo magazine and Mudhoney's biographer (he wrote Mudhoney: The Sound And The Fury From Seattle), has taken charge of the texts of the booklet, in which there are also new cover images, photos group file and a poster.

Mudhoney is considered the band that laid the sturdy foundations for grunge, the ones who fired the official starting gun for a style of music that would define the 1990s. In 1988, their single “Touch Me, I'm Sick” and their EP Superfuzz Bigmuff were classed as inspirations for that dirty and distorted sound that, in its slipstream and baptized as grunge, joined bands to the cause like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Stone Temple Pilots, an more.

Mudhoney was also the first group to succeed on the Sub Pop record label, known for promoting and capitalizing on most of that movement from Seattle, and on which Mudhoney has published almost all of their work. The muscle of heavy metal, the attitude of punk and the primitivism of garage converged in their music, making them a band with a sound for the ages. See them play live at Razzmatazz, with Los Chicos opening up.
