About this episode
This week I'm joined by author and music critic Keith Cameron ( Mudhoney: The Sound and the Fury From Seattle, 168 Songs of Hatred and Failure: A History of Manic Street Preachers ), who picked the documentary I’M NOW: THE STORY OF MUDHONEY to dive into. We discuss our relationship with the British musical weeklies and how Keith ended up working for them, the power of Radio One DJ John Peel , Keith trying to get his favorite bands on the cover of the NME , the Mudhoney riot at the School of Oriental & African Studies in 1989 (where Mark Arm invited the entire audience onstage before the first note), cracking Green River , seeing Mudhoney’s 2nd show opening for White Zombie , the brilliance and haphazardness of SubPop , Jack Endino asking the band if they really wanted to sound like they did while recording them, Mudoney saving SubPop’s label at their lowest point, how Caroline records wanted to polish up Mudhoney, the follies of indie labels & the notion of selling out, Mark Arm as a world class lyricist, Keith visiting Seattle & interviewing Nirvana at the time they were kicking out Dan Peters of Mudhoney and replacing him with Dave Grohl, touring with Nirvana vs. Pearl Jam, the handheld camera tour footage of the band, Keith spending time in Mudhoney's childhood locations, Matt Lukin leaving the band and Guy Maddison replacing him, the obstacles and triumphs of continuing to making music for nearly 40 years and more! So let's collectively make the stage collapse on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!
