Mush (album)

Mush is the third full-length album by the English punk band Leatherface. It was originally released only in Britain on Roughneck, a subsidiary of Fire Records, in 1991. It was re-released on Seed Records, an offshoot of Atlantic Records, in 1992, in an unsuccessful attempt to capitalize on the popularity of Nirvana in the United States.[1]

gollark: This is the claim I have heard, yes.
gollark: With sufficiently good imaging and such, I imagine you could probably look for signs of wiped out life or megastructures or whatever and determine if there actually is dark-forest-type stuff going on.
gollark: You could probably determine if that was the case, and I can think of ways around that sort of problem right now.
gollark: Not the worst possible solution, but certainly a bad one.
gollark: It's a terrible solution.
