Green River were arguably the first grunge band, forming around the same
time as the rest of Seattle's first wave (the Melvins, Soundgarden, and Malfunkshun).
In 1985, they became the first grunge band to release a record, kickstarting
the Seattle music scene and later helping to establish the Sub Pop label.
However, Green River are even more famous for the bands that sprang from
their breakup: Mudhoney and Mother Love Bone, the latter of which also
contained the roots of Pearl Jam. That lineage somewhat overshadows Green River's
actual music, which helped lay out the blueprint for grunge but didn't necessarily
rank among its most transcendent expressions. Green River specialized in a dirty,
sludgy, gleefully ugly hybrid of punk, heavy metal, and bluesy hard rock, drawing
from bands like the Stooges and Aerosmith in addition to the hardcore punk
outfits where many of the members first cut their teeth.
In the summer of 1986, the group recorded another EP, Dry as a Bone,
in Seattle with producer Jack Endino; it was issued by Bruce Pavitt's
fledgling Sub Pop label in July 1987...(All Music Guide)
