Grunge was Sub Pop's lucky marketing term and helped carry some of the label's early groups (Soundgarden) to commercial success and others (Mudhoney) to critical acknowledgment. It's all rock'n'roll when the day's over, but if the loosely defined noise-pop genre had to have a typical representative, it might as well be San Francisco's Meices, a scrappy, loud, fun-loving garage-rocking trio led by singer/guitarist Joe Reineke.
