  • what is tuning for this? this sounds so epically d-tuned and is that a fuzz effect? sry for the noobish questions im new to learning to play guitar.

  • Hey no worries,

    Actually it is just in standard tuning! It's just the way they play it that makes it sound different.

  • is there anyway that i can put this on my ipod or something cuz this song is badass

  • I could try emailing you the song if you want.

  • This was effectively the first "grunge" song ever written, in that it adhered to the style and was written by a band that was part of what later became the grunge community. Oh Lord, what did they start?

  • oh my god this fucking rocks

  • @MrPsyKOlogical I'm sure you're very pretty :3 <3

  • @thegranitebison Glad you stumbled across them!

  • i bet people were like :OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! what is this??????!!!!! when it came out hahaa

  • @profstampede im pretty grunge started with a band called green river, though they broke up and one of the members went to form mudhoney, but grunge was definetely in affect before nirvana. dont get me wrong i love nirvana but they were influenced by melvins for sure

  • This song is so awesome. Just discovered these guys a few weeks ago. Which is a bit weird but still. Awesome band.

  • @NirvanaNerd364 Actually, I do see the reasoning behind declaring Bush the first real grunge band since they tried so hard to be a grunge group (sometimes succeeded, sometimes didn't :P); after all, Melvins, Nirvana, etc., never really considered themselves "grunge."

  • @aerocmetallica1995 Huh.No kidding thanks for the clear up.but hey they werent really trying to be grunge this sounds pretty metal to me also you mite think this is stupid but the first real grunge song woud be by Bush cuz they were actually TRYING to be grunge you know?

  • @NirvanaNerd364 No, this song was recorded in '83 and Green River formed in '84 (didn't release anything until '85 either)
