Fuzzy (album)

Fuzzy is the debut album by American rock band Grant Lee Buffalo, released in 1993. Described as "the best album of the year hands down" by R.E.M.'s Michael Stipe,[6] according to the band's website "Fuzzy would galvanize the sound of Grant Lee Buffalo, i.e., the acoustic feedback howl of overdriven 12-string guitars, melodic distorto-bass, tribal drum bombast, the old world churn of pump organs and parlor pianos."[7]
