Abrasive (album)

Untitled

Abrasive is the debut album by Puddle of Mudd, released in 1997 on Hardknocks Records. The album is extremely rare as it was only released with limited distribution. The band had said that if they ever get the chance, they would like to re-release this album.

The tracks "Nobody Told Me", "Said", "Piss It All Away", "All I Ask For" and "Abrasive" were all rerecorded for Puddle Of Mudd's following album, Come Clean, but only the first three made it on the album. This album version of "Abrasive" was included on the "Control" single and the special editions of Come Clean. "All I Ask For" only exists in a demo take from these sessions and this was included on the "Blurry" single. The track "Abrasive" was released on their greatest hits album.

The album cover shows a roundish item about to splash into a lake, hitting an outline of what appears to be a target on a cloudy day.
