Fuzzy

Fuzzy, “Fuzzy” (Seed, 1994)
From Massachusetts, this group had brief membership overlap with the Lemonheads, and this debut features a guitar lead by Dinosaur Jr’s Mike Johnson (on 4), and shares some common ground with both bands – that languid-yet-vivid, collegetown-pastoral sort of rolling, noisy guitar-pop. Yet there are similarities to the Breeders as well, in the intertwined female vocal leads and a certain drive and snappiness. But in the end, there’s something really distinctive about Fuzzy – a blending of open space with bursts of sound and emotion that for some reason makes me think of running through falling leaves.
