Updated re-issue of Gruntruck’s second full length album ‘Push’, originally released in 1992, with extensive liner notes and contributions from the band.
Newly remastered, the release features liner notes from respected metal writer Dave Everley who conducted fresh interviews with the band and their associates, including legendary producer Jack Endino.
Features three bonus tracks.
Gruntruck was founded in 1989 in Seattle, formed by Ben McMillan and Norman Scott from the ashes of the revered Skin Yard, pairing with guitarist Tommy Niemeyer formerly of Thrash band The Accused, and bassist Tim Paul from Hardcore act Final Warning.
Released in 92, ‘Push’ is widely considered the great lost Grunge-era classic, acclaimed by fellow acts like Alice In Chains and Pearl Jam. Gruntruck toured with Alice In Chains for their classic ‘Dirt’ album, and with Pantera on the ‘Vulgar Display Of Power’ tour.
