Skin Yard

Yeah, that surprised everybody.

I know Jack and Dino, I think he was in Skin Yard.

He's also the record producer.

They were touring in the fall of 91.

Talk about this.

This had Green River, Soundgarden, The Melvins, a band called Malfunction, Skin Yard, and the You Men.

Well, I think this is where, it's sort of the first document where you see the scene coalescing.

Because Sub Pop 100 came out the same year, but that wasn't just a New York compilation.

German label Crippled Dick Hot Wax releases their next album in 1995, the Steve Albini-engineered Let Me Be a Woman.

And I should add, the artwork for all three of these releases was done by Jim Blanchard, who we saw on the Andino's Earthworm record and will be seeing very soon on our Skinyard Part 2 episode.

And Eugene talks about how he had known Jim long before Jim moved to Seattle in the interview that I just read.

That takes us to 1996 and the group's fourth album, Serenade in Red, which was released overseas by Crippled Dick Hot Wax and in North America in 1997 by SST.

And this episode, don't be a lame stain.

Let's leave this harsh realm and head to Seattle because it's SST 339 Cruise Intrusion Skin Yard Part 1.

Yeah.

That's right.

We've got Daniel House on the show.

Yeah, we've got Daniel on for a two-parter.

This is Skin Yard Part 1, and stay tuned for Part 2.

And across these two interviews with Daniel, we hear about CZ Records, of course, other bands like 10 Minute Warning, whom we've talked about a bunch of times on the show before, even bands like our local faves, Huevos Rancheros and No Means No, and of course, lots of Skin Yard bands.

the early to mid-90s all stuff so much, is because while not necessarily technically grunge, it doesn't feel out of place next to grunge stuff.

Like, legit, you could stick this album on a rack display with Gruntruck and Skin Yard and it would be perfectly at home.

Well, it's all part of

that...
