I seem to recall Chuck Eddy comparing 'em to Crazy Horse in his review of the self-titled in Stairway to Hell.

Neil Young's album Zuma has "Cortez the Killer" and "Danger Bird" which both remind me a lot of Meat Puppets II.

now you mention it, "Don't Let It Bring You Down" sounds a LOT like the Meat Puppets, and the other day my friends and I were discussing how this is the most stereotypical Neil Young song, ie it could be a parody if it wasn't one of his best songs (but maybe he's got a lot of songs like that???) anyway, the unhelpful answer might be that the two are similar in essence but not in execution. I think Rust Never Sleeps might be the closest bet, though.

there's this track on a monitor album that sounds just like the meat puppets
I think it *is* the meat puppets.

I think "neil young" is code for "yowling out of tune vocals"
