Two albums signed to small indie labels 30 years apart from one another that dared to tread new ground and break new sound. Mudhoney is often referred to as the band that kicked off the Pacific North West's grunge boom and we're going to dive into Superfuzz Bigmuff, the album that started it all. Right after that we're going to jump to the other side of the country and listen to Dr. Dog with their fifth studio album, Fate! Their highest charting album to date Fate introduced a new era for Dr. Dog, showcasing a more polished side of them and a deeply conceptual album to boot. It's a lot to put into context but luckily this week we have Peter DeMaio (of Idaho Green, Pon Farr, and Waterfall Strainer) with us to sift through all the details on this episode of No Singles.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
