"My Brother the Cow" is the fourth studio album by the American grunge band Mudhoney. Released in 1995, the album showcases Mudhoney's signature blend of raw, energetic rock music with heavy, distorted guitars and punk-infused rhythms.
The album features a mix of fast-paced, aggressive tracks and slower, more melodic songs, highlighting Mudhoney's versatility as a band. Lyrically, the album touches on themes of disillusionment, frustration, and social commentary, often delivered with a dose of irony and wit.
"My Brother the Cow" received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its raw energy and uncompromising attitude. However, it achieved only modest commercial success compared to some of Mudhoney's earlier releases.
Despite its commercial performance, "My Brother the Cow" remains a fan favorite and is considered an important album in Mudhoney's discography. It continues to be celebrated for its unapologetic approach to rock music and its influential role in the grunge scene of the 1990s.
