Board To Death Ep. 29 - Mark Arm & Steve Turner (Mudhoney) | EarthQuaker Devices

To put it simply, these Mudhoney guys have played together for a very long time. Their demeanor with each other is as natural as it gets. Lucky for us, Mark and Steve decided to sit down and divulge pedal set-ups for this episode of Board To Death! Classic circuits that were around when they started their first bands are still in the mix, but modern updates promoting reliability definitely don’t hurt. Bit Commander pops up early in Mark’s chain, followed by a mystery box that is used quite often along with the Park Fuzz Sound. You are going have to watch the whole thing to find out what else they use because two dudes’ worth of pedals is a lot, and there is no way anything typed here will illustrate how funny these guys are.

    Mark Arm casually mentions that the SuperFuzz became hard to find, as if he has no idea that Mudhoney popularized them.

    You can easily add different textures to your music in real time very easily just by stepping down.

It just depends on the individual and how they choose to express themselves. Thanks for watching and being here!

    Well done guys. Like it or not this type of reviewing pedals is essential. All the pedals have there own sound. But when you perform in a club or wherever, all those intense sounds get lost you m the band, room and audience. Sure they sound incredible played alone or showcased with a drum machine and mixed perfectly in a studio, but crank that amp up and and battle a heavy handed drummer and the other monkeys trying to be heard, suddenly that 299$ - 499$ pedals is lost in the mix and the listener doesn’t even notice. Anyway, I doubt that was the message you we’re giving, but I personally would love to see pedal reviews show more practical sound checks like this. Well...what I meant to say was thank you for this video. I enjoyed it. Cheers

Mudhoney (or Green River which was basically proto-Mudhoney together with some soon-to-be Pearl Jam members) were basically the firsg Grunge bands. these two guys here could be called the godfathers of grunge and even if it wouldn;t be accurate it would still be somewhat technically correct. Nirvana brought grunge to the mainstream, but mudhoney arguably brought it to existence.
