When Lucy’s Fur Coat burst onto the scene in the mid-90s, they brought a fresh sound to the grunge era. Their debut album, “Jaundice,” released in 1994, showcased their raw energy and infectious melodies.
The band quickly gained a following with their lead single, “Treasure Hands,” which received heavy radio play and led to extensive touring. Despite initial success, Lucy’s Fur Coat faced setbacks and was dropped from their label.
After reuniting, the band released “How to Survive an Air Crash” in 1998, but never quite reached the same level of success as their debut. However, their live shows continued to captivate audiences with their signature sound.
One of Lucy’s Fur Coat’s standout tracks, “El Cajon,” highlights their trademark style of chugging guitar riffs and anthemic choruses. The song’s subtle nuances and eerie atmosphere set it apart from their typical sound, showing a different side to the band’s musicality.
