If many of these musicians would be doing better work by the late '80s, Deep Six
-- which works better on a historical level than an aesthetic one -- still documents a formative
period in Northwest rock history. The garage rock of the Sonics and the Wailers in the '60s
had led to the album rock of Heart in the '70s and the progressive metal of Queensryche in the '80s.
The proto-grunge bands here all borrow from and expand on those influences in some way or another.
A few would even move away from grunge to a more arena-ready sound in the years to come,
such as Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone (featuring members of Malfunkshun and Green River),
and Pearl Jam (featuring members of Green River). Mudhoney, who rose (as it were)
from the ashes of Green River, would take a less-commercial, more garage-oriented approach
(as would Nirvana in their early years). By the time the Seattle scene exploded just a few years later,
several of these bands were gone (or no longer together in this form) and one particularly
charismatic musician (Andrew Wood from Malfunkshun and Mother Love Bone) had passed away.
Melvins -- sans Mudhoney's Matt Lukin -- had even moved to the Bay Area, leaving their tag
as a Seattle band behind. Deep Six was local label C/Z Records' first release.
C/Z would go on to release recordings by Melvins, Skin Yard (who featured
producer Jack Endino of Bleach fame), and a number of others ...(AllMusic)
