The Lucky Ones is the ninth album by the band Mudhoney. It was released on May 20, 2008. Mudhoney are celebrating the 20th anniversaries of the band and their record label, Sub Pop. Superfuzz Bigmuff: Deluxe Edition was expected to be released soon after, also to mark this anniversary.[1] According to Sub Pop, Superfuzz Bigmuff: Deluxe Edition will include twenty new songs.
[edit] Recording & Writing
As the band has said the album was written “from the rhythm up” instead of from the riff and the lyrics down and has also stated that it's the fastest album they made.[2] As Mark said the effect is to thrust out the bottom-end rumble of drummer Dan Peters and bassist Guy Maddison, and to bring about a cohesive whole not entirely ruled by the almighty riff—although you certainly don’t have to look hard to find ‘em.[3] Rather spontaneously, the veterans recorded the eleven songs found on the record in only 3.5 days, including overdubs.[4]
