Meat Puppets-Up On The Sun Posted on April 6, 2022April 6, 2022 by David Meader Meat Puppets are a bnd from Phoenix that formed in the early 80’s. Composed of the Kirkwood brothers Curt and Cris and Derrick Bostrom on drums. This is their third album from 1985.. I had five or six of their releases on cassette. Unlike their earlier records which were more in the Punk/Hardcore style, this has a more Alt Country and slightly Psychedelic sound to it. The title track,”Away” and “Two Rivers” are the songs I liked best on this abum. There are two instrumentals,one “Mothers Milk”, has what sounds like all three whisteling.Most of their albums have been re-issued since 2011. Their later albums veered into more Hard Rock and Heavy Metal territory. They are stll active today after several break-ups and reunions.
