80s Jams #46: Mudhoney "Touch Me I’m Sick" (1988)

The first commercial 7" single ever released on Seattle's pioneering grunge/ indie label Sub Pop, Mudhoney's "Touch Me I'm Sick" was a crucial and vastly influential touchstone in the evolution of the grunge movement, virtually defining the term with its raw, filthy-sounding guitar racket and the unhinged vocal rants of Mark Arm, whose lyrics wallowed gleefully in disease, self-loathing, angst, and dirty sex. -- Allmusic http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=33:0pftxztjldfe
