This release sounds more folk oriented than their later releases. If you're expecting another "You Suck" type single, this may be disappointing.

Murmurs Biography
by Jason Ankeny
The alternative pop duo the Murmurs comprised singers/songwriters Leisha Hailey and Heather Grody,
who began performing together in 1991 while both were students at New
York City's American Academy of Dramatic Arts. Debuting with the
self-released Who Are We, the Murmurs quickly attracted a cult following
on the East Village club circuit, signing to MCA in 1994 and debuting
with a self-titled LP which spawned the novelty hit "You Suck." With the
release of 1997's Pristine Smut, the formerly acoustic duo added bassist Sheri Ozeki and drummer Sherri Solinger; Blender followed a year later.

The indie pop trio Buck was led by singer/bassist Lisa Marr, the onetime frontwoman for the influential cuddlecore group Cub; following that band's 1997 demise, Marr relocated from her native Vancouver to Los Angeles, home of her husband, Muffs bassist Ronnie Barnett. There she reunited with former Cub drummer Lisa G., and with the addition of guitarist Pepper Berry, Buck's line-up was complete; upon signing with Sympathy for the Record Industry, the trio recorded their self-titled debut LP, issued in late 1998. Less than a week before the album was released, Lisa G. left Buck to return to Canada; former Longstocking drummer Sherri Solinger was soon tapped as her replacement.
