Melvins
26 Songs (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
Includes the re-release of 10 Songs plus demos and alternate recordings. 10 Songs is where it all began. The very first CD by the original purveyors of sludge, a re-release of this out of print gem has been long overdue. Considering it was recorded all the way back in 1986 to a standard 2 track analog recorder, no mixing involved, 10 Songs has dated incredibly well. The CD sounds as formidably loud and dauntingly heavy as it did the day it was rele...

Melvins
Bullhead (CD)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
Bullhead is a hulking pile of dense metallic fury forged in a veritable orgy of feedback experiments and pure utter dementia. It's an exercise in endurance, completely unrelenting in its resistance to accessibility. The tempos are slowed down to the point of excruciating slowness. Every note hanging for what seems like an eternity, with Buzzo and associates reveling in every second of crawling sonic bliss. Melvins' third album is power incarnate. Its sheer di...

Chicken Switch (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
For the last twenty-five years or more no band has stretched the parameters of what it is to be a band like The Melvins. Part punk, part prog, part rock and loaded with experimentation The Melvins simply do whatever they want and for the most part it is genius. What’s going on with Chicken Switch is amongst some of the most bizarre work The Melvins have offered up. Ranging from danceable to full on ear bleeding noise Chicken Switch has little to do with remixing and mo...

Melvins
Colossus of Destiny (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
Recorded live on December 13, 1998 at Club Mangler in Cupertino, California. This may be the weirdest Melvins CD yet and that's saying something. It consists of about 50 minutes of feedback and sampled voices followed by a crushing blast through the classic "Eye Flys" from Gluey Porch Treatments. You should be warned that this disc requires a very open mind. Some fans mistake this and their other more "out there" stuff, like Prick or Electroretard,...

Dale Crover (CD EP)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
Dale Crover has assembled a collection of mind melting hard rock. Easily the heaviest of the three solo albums and arguably the best. Although it's hard to say that for sure because each one of them has its own personality and sound. Another reviewer said it's the most accessible of the albums and I have to say that is true. The sound is probably the closest thing to any of the Melvins previous work that you are going to find on these solo projects. Just in case you...

Eggnog (CD EP)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
For me this shall always be the perfect Melvins record. With three short whirlwind punk-metal curlicues and one massive trudge o' doom, this EP pretty much encompasses all that is great about the Melvins. There are a couple unique things about Melvins music which are on full display here. First of all, Buzzo's bizarre singing. It doesn't sound all that bizarre, but the thing is his lyrics don't make any sense. The grammar is gibberish and he makes up words. Second of...

Houdini (CD)
Label: Atlantic Origin: USA
The band has lost none of their quirkiness on Houdini. The lyrics are as incomprehensible as ever and master of ceremonies King Buzzo intones them as if they were the most important words ever spoken. His raw, commanding vocal style is more rock 'n' roll than Elvis. Combined with the brutal yet charismatic drumming of Dale Crover, it sets Melvins apart from the wannabes. Melvins don't even NEED to try. Fans of records such as Stoner Witch and The Magg...

Houdini Live 2005 (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
With an album as good as Houdini, it’s no surprise that the live version is just as good, if not better. Each track is a winner. Sonically, it sounds like a straight-from-the-board mix, with a good balance between the three players (Osbourne, bassist Trevor Dunn, and drummer Dale Crover). The songs don’t sound sloppy or unfocused, and when they lock together, it reminds me why I fell in love with the band in the first place. Houdini Live 2005 captures th...

Joe Preston (CD EP)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
OK, this is not a conventional rock album by any means. As a matter of fact, this album merits some concentration on the part of the listener to fully "get" this one. Truthfully, it may be kind of hard the first couple of times to even listen to it. But once you find the right mood and open your ears and mind, I think you'll find this one of the most interesting CDs you'll ever hear.

King Buzzo (CD EP)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
Dale Nixon (aka Dave Grohl) on drums. I walked into this one expecting the heavy fuzz laden Buzzo sound. I was actually suprised by the way this came off. In a way this is far more laid back than I could have imagined from King Buzzo. With that said, I really like the way this album is put together. I don't want anyone to think this one doesn't have its heavy spots. It definitely does. It's just that this album shows why these three guys did the "solo" thing. Expe...

2 bonus tracks and 3 videos. At the height of the grunge movement (1991-1994), no other band was name-checked as often as an influenctial trailblazer as the Melvins were. Having issued several underground classics before the Seattle sound hit the mainstream, the veteran band was rewarded with a major-label contract shortly afterward (Atlantic Records), resulting in such titles as 1993's Houdini (which longtime admirer Kurt Cobain produced parts of), 1994's Stoner Witch,...

Limited edition on translucent red vinyl. Deluxe gatefold sleeve. Wow. Buy many copies of this and let no child be left behind. Like (A) Senile Animal plus some Houdini with a kind of seventies robustness. Like a spider in your beer because you put it there. Like barbiturate hitchhiking on the jalepeno demon train on firework night. Like dog eat toad eat frog eat fly eat shit. Like mental cockroaches and like the mental pestcontrol man all in one.

Ozma/Gluey Porch Treatments (CD)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
Yes! These are the two albums that put Melvins on the global map. Uncompromising heaviness combined with mathematical autism, and embellished with King's Buzzo poetry of sublime absurdity. This is not metal or punk. For those of you who know the language, this is more along the lines of Blast! or perhaps some of the better later-Black Flag - but far darker, and much, much slower. Gluey Porch Treatments is a black motor of an album, while Ozma is a bit mor...

Self Titled (CD)
Label: Boner Origin: USA
On their last album before going major, Melvins created their best song ever. Originally titled Lysol, its one track is actually six songs fused together as one lumbering beast. Though the majority of the material on the album is not theirs, Melvins successfully make it their own with crushing precision. Like a huge lead wrecking ball being lowered upon you, you start to feel the weight of these songs about midway into it. By the end you are choking and gasping...

Stag (CD) (Import)
Label: Atlantic Origin: Germany
The Melvins are one of the few bands to actually improve with the passage of time. With Stag, Buzzo and the boys alienated some of their die hard loyalists by opening up their sound from the slow, brutal, smart metal style they created into something much more grand and kaleidoscopic. This album features at various points the sitar, coronet, ambient sound ditties, chipmunk styled vocals, and (god forbid) keyboards. They do all of this without compromising any of...

Stoner Witch (CD)
Label: Atlantic Origin: USA
The basis for the Melvins' career has been the simple principle: "We don't give a fuck what anybody thinks". Indeed, Buzzo and company make music that is totally outside the confines of mainstream thinking, ranging from unholy sludge to soothing ambience. Pinpointing the Melvins style is an impossible task, for they shift genres with every song and album. Their style is downtuned, jagged riffs in complex signatures. Imagine a severely scratched up copy of "Symptom...

Sugar Daddy Live (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
Recorded at The Busta-Guts Club in Downey, Califorinia. On their new live album, Melvins sound like a slow-motion avalanche, with rumbling bass and grunge-metal guitar slamming headlong into a thicket of dueling drum sets. When the Washington state band started in 1983, they were a trio that evolved away from hardcore punk tempos into a swampy morass of Black Sabbath/Flipper/Black Flag–style riffs, a weirdly compelling blend that would directly influence their friends N...

With The Bootlicker, Melvins have crafted an album that feels like a fever dream... a whisper you hear with your eyes closed, buried under layers of no thought. On this middle installment of their current trilogy (The Maggot, The Bootlicker, The Crybaby) they swing away from the sludge and fall down the rabbit hole of punk-psychedelia. Melvins are completely unafraid to explore whatever musical direction they wish. And as obtuse as King Buz...

The Bride Screamed Murder (CD)

The Bride Screamed Murder is just that; a defiance of expectations. While it’s no Honky, it’s certainly the Melvins, in the flesh. The same heavy-as-shit, wacky group that pissed your parents off growing up is back to tickle your nostalgia in your 30’s. One thing I will say about The Bride Screamed Murder is that you can’t simply pick it up as your first Melvins experience. You have to spend time listening to moments from their entire catalog. Houdini, Stoner Witch, S...

Millennium Monsterwork (CD)
Label: Ipecac Origin: USA
Recorded live at Slim's in San Francisco, California on December 31, 2000. Guitarist King Buzzo is not the only link between these two bands. The Melvins and Fantomas are united in the pursuit of being artists as much as musicians. And while it can be said that The Melvins are in part responsible for the exploding Seattle music scene and grunge wannabes of the '90s (and, thankfully, much of today's sludgecore scene), and Fantomas' frontman Mike Patton is cited by nearly...

Label: Alternative Tentacles Origin: USA
Honestly this is a new, HEAVIER Dead Kennedys. I praise the Melvins for keeping they're signature sound, only tweaking it to Jello's insane lyrical stylings and song writing. Updated, fresh and relevant for today. The Biafra written tunes are very Biafra like with weird changes, odd melodic parts and strange back-up vocals. Think later Dead Kennedys' albums like Bedtime for Democracy. The best tunes are the collaborations that were written by both the Melvi...
