  • Kim Shattuck, singer/songwriter/frontwoman for The Muffs, passed away yesterday (October 2, 2019). She died after a two year struggle with ALS. She was 56. Her illness was kept private, so much of the world had no idea (myself included).
    This video is a tribute to an amazing artist. Kim made excellent music in the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. The Muffs' newest record is scheduled to be released later this month.

      She was great, very talented and very funny! Had fun hanging out with her. The 1st Muffs album is still my fave because I was at a lot of their earliest gigs around. L.A. 😟⚘

    Vocally, she was a force to be reckoned with.... that raspy, west coast/bay area cadence, was so intense. Her death was 3 days before my birthday, too... I will ALWAYS remember you, Kim!

    I happened to catch the Sad Tomorrow video on 120 Minutes one night when I was about 16. I was recording with my VCR, and just loved that particular video and song. I watched the video over again about 100 times and then picked up the first Muffs album. That's when I started listening to The Muffs. Very sad to learn that Kim has passed away.

    Great video Dave. Such sad news. It's still hard to believe we live in a world without that voice. Funny you mentioned those articles. I also got mad when I saw the articles that only mention her work at the pixies. Glad you also listed the beards at the beginning of the video. That was a really cool side project with Lisa Marr. I got the meet Kim once in person and I actually interviewed her twice on the phone back in 2007. She was always the sweetest. I'm going to try to make a tribute video soon.

    I was turned on to the Muffs in 94. I went to see them at a small venue in Signal Hill (Long Beach, CA) in 1996.
    I was formerly a drummer but I was learning to play guitar at the time. I heard the song "On and On" and I wrote to Kim and asked her about the intro of "On and On". I told her it sounded like "I'm Telling You Now" by Freddie and the Dreamers.
    Kim stated that the into chords were the same and she was a fan of all the 60's Brit Invasion Music.
    I really thought they were a Great Band and were even better than Green Day!

    Wow!! I had no idea!! Was just remembering and getting reacquainted with The Muffs here in pandemic 2020, when I saw this video. I was seriously just about to start googling The Muffs to see what they had been up to when this vid appeared while still looking at old songs. A punch in the gut. Sad. I was quite into them in the early 1990’s when I friend of mine gave their cd to me. Oddly enough, I found out Maggie Estep also passed away, she, of a sudden heart attack not so long ago at age fifty, this was discovered while I was performing similar tasks here searching for material. She was another early to mid 90’s heroine for me. It’s all quite sad all of this news, though not quite recent, is recent to me. Thank you for the information.

    I couldn't stand her music in the Muffs...
    However, she really shined as the Pandoras bass player along with Melanie as the keyboard player for years in the LA clubs.
    I hung out with her socially and even Courtney Love in the early '90's if anyone remembers Jabberjaw or Raji's--the dive clubs of the punk scene in LA at the time.
    Kim actually loved the mid-Sixties British Invasion bands and constantly returned to those records for inspiration. All of this pre-notoriety stuff will be lost to time soon; but that's how it was.

We all Partied at the "Midtown Bar and Cafe" when they came here. They where not just average drinkers wow they could drink. Paula Died, I'm not sure what from, but she was a great person. I also met Kim, and Melanie, excellent music. I have both the CD and the Tape of "Rock Hard" by the Pandora's which now is very, very, rare.
