Who would give this up, January 4, 2011
This review is from: My Brother the Cow (Audio CD)
Just like the title says, who in their right mind would give up this intriguing masterpiece. As true as the title Judgement, Rage, Retribution & Thyme says, this is what this album truly is. I still thank the title is really stupid. Who, talks about a cow. Probably cows.
This album is just brilliant and ingeniously played. Man, I can't describe how good the riffs are on Execution Style or on 1995. I hate the last track, because this cost me watching the Steve Wilko's show. I hate that this band named the title's its title. Not up there exactly with Pearl Jam, put really great at the angry, fierce direction. Every track gets a 10, except the last one, 9.5.

Typical Mudhoney - great stuff., March 28, 2000
This review is from: My Brother the Cow (Audio CD)
I'm not sure if John from London is listening to the same disk (see the review above), but this is great stuff. Exceptional material played with all power, emotion, fuzz and distortion typical of Mudhoney. If you already know and love Mudhoney you probably already own this. If not, do yourself a favor and buy it. Better than 95% of the garbage being passed as rock music today. The CD even comes with a surprise ending!

My Daddy's Rich & My Mama's Good Lookin'..., November 10, 2004
This review is from: My Brother the Cow (Audio CD)
It's been a while since anyone reviewed this, so what the hell. This was the first Mudhoney CD I ever listened to, back in the mid-90's, as the grunge scene was well on its way to sloping back down from its apex. Most people have never heard of Mudhoney, and most of those who have know them from their cameo in "Black Sheep" as the band at the rally where Chris Farley's character indelibly makes a fool of himself. But this band was actually instrumental in the formation of the grunge "movement," and was one of the first bands to emerge from that era that was actually worth a damn. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on how you look at it, they didn't come nearly as close to stardom and influence as some of their counterparts. Nevertheless, they made several albums that were instrumental in making the grunge scene what it was. This album, along with some of their earlier albums, constitute their best work. With songs like "Generation Spokesmodel," "Into Yer Schtick" (rumored to be about Courtney Love) and "Judgment, Rage, Retribution & Thyme," this is a great place to start if you're unfamiliar with Mudhoney.
