No, I haven't. I'm honestly not really interested, which says a lot about Jello Biafra, because I don't think I need to explain how much I love Melvins.


No love for the Dead Kennedys? :shake:

Alright, as long as you're not hating I'll contribute to the thread.

My friend just gave me a dvd with everything the Melvins have ever done on it. It's a bit overwhelming to say the least.

We do this all the time, it's just a huge data disc containing everything by a particular artist. Previous entries in this series between us include Sonic Youth, Wu Tang Clan, etc.

Ah, I see. Well you've got a lot of great music to listen to.

In other news, I just listened to the tribute album We Reach: The Music of The Melvins. It's one of the most horrifically awful things I've ever heard.

Not sure if this is just a legend, but I remember reading that Prick was made to piss fans up?

Care to buy me some gas at the local B+P?

I used to own Stoner Witch and Houdini, then i grew out of the dark angry phase and sold them in college...... Now i miss them and my Ministry CDs to listen to. The ones that got away....

*squeal*

And regarding Prick...some people think it was made to piss fans off, but I think it was more them trying to weed out some of the hipster crowd that started listening to them because of Kurt Cobain. They tend to do shit like that 'cause they're awesome. Anyway, I think it's a good album. It's the first full-length expression of their weirder, more experimental side. It's got a nice, airy feel to it. I dig it.

1 The Kicking Machine
2 Billy Fish
3 Dog Island
4 Dies Iraea
5 Suicide In Progress
6 The Smiling Cobra
7 Nude With Boots
8 Flush
9 The Stupid Creep
10 The Savage Hippy
11 It Tastes Better Than The Truth

God I hope that army-sounding song they'd been playing on the last tour is one of these.

According to themelvins.net:

Quote:
Also due in July is the Fantomas/Melvins Big Band Live From London 2006 DVD release, featuring audio commentary from the Melvins' own Buzz, Danny DeVito and Ipecac co-owner Greg Werckman.

Pigs of the Roman Empire, the record they did with Lustmord is downright evil.

I'm partial to their cover of the Wiper's Youth of America.

Pretty melodic to me.







The version of Night Goat off the seven inch is probably my favorite Melvins track. Its so cool when the single version is better than the album cut.
