  • I remember when I bought this in late '93 and this was of my favorite songs on the album.

  • you have anything like the sordid stories i have somewhere in here. we lived this. in our own sordid loserish way. lets just say this cranked to 11. huge amounts of wine. cement block. and beat up aluminum baseball bat. (wish i had filmed that) twas probably better for all involved that it only exists as a hazy memory of mine and those that were there.

  • this was actually recorded by kurtd cobane in a woodshed all byhimselv back in '82 when he was on 'roids.

  • Look whos talking there ChrisMars..gettin your panties in a wad are we? lol This song is bad ass! Peace :^P

  • Your all completely retarded, and I mean that in a bad way. Except those actually talking about music. The internet is filling up with turds and ass fluid fast so keep that in mind as you text your mind drivel into it. Your sort of lightly touching crap with each timid, self absorbed keystroke. If your cell phone dies...you disappear!??? Go F!*k yourself.

  • this is man rock..fuck the 80's gay glam shit

  • this sounds like early soundgarden

  • @ohmah70 King Buzzo taught Soundgarden's bassist drop d tuning. So actually early Soundgarden sounds like this.

  • One of my favorite tracks from Houdini. I love the way Buzzo's guitar just pounds it to the chorus, then the vocals come in like a power drill and everything sounds like some doomsday machine ambling towards the unsuspecting populace. Or maybe I'm high.

  • See that 1 dislike? Neither do I !!!

  • See that 1 dislike? Neither do I !!!!!!

  • \m/

  • Great cut, this.

    P.S. I found out about Cobain because of Melvins -- the only time they ever steered me wrong. Gahh, what a crap band. I'm glad Earth survived Kurt's 'blast radius'.

  • @genreslur whats ur problem with him? whatd he ever do that was sooo bad

  • Filth

  • With how talented Buzzo is at writing "weirdo" hard core songs and his obvious skill at the guitar, I think we forget about how talented he is as a vocalist and what range he actually has.

  • YouTube: the place where every song video's comment section is filled with debates about completely unrelated trivialities.

  • leave kurt out of this. we all love him, but this isnt even a nirvana vid.

  • Kurts dead, who gives a shit what people think or say about him, bands like the melvins, nirvana, red hot chili peppers, led zepplin and the beatles, that can never be replaced by anyone else are bigger than that, music is a universal medium that affects everyone, but I personally recommend that you just enjoy it. It doesn't matter if Kurt was basically a roadie for the melvins, the timeless magic of music was still created in the studio, thats all that really matters.

  • @ChoclatexLesbians thank you. people need to stop this arguing. theyre all good bands.

  • Hahhahhaa. Buzz is such a dick at times, & his laugh. I just love it.

  • also Buzz gave kurt a mixed tape of all his favorite punk songs that inspired kurt to play the style of music he did, kurt also auditioned for the melvins several times, but buzz told him he couldnt be in the band.,

  • Joan of Arc disliked this video...

  • im looking for bands that play like 80s nirvana. any sugjestions

  • @maritzayyy early Screaming Trees

  • @maritzayyy mudhoney's album "superfuzz bigmuff"

    black flag's album "my war" (specifically the last 3 songs)

  • @maritzayyy the black lips

  • @maritzayyy put TAD on that list for sure

  • @maritzayyy The Accused, maybe? Their slower stuff, that is...

  • i want to hear a song with one chord.

  • @thousandlegger yea actually at some point when Buzz gets to another bar theres a slight change in chords...

    Anyways, you seem to be on the good guys' side in music, so would you consider this good?

    /watch?v=NJWUfyB2cFU

    thanks!!

  • youtube comments suck

  • He's playing the shit out of that chord

  • All love.

    All hate.

  • może w 2011 melvinsi zawitaja do Polski? bylby koncert życia zdecydowanie

  • fuck Cobain, i wish these guys got the same appreciation as that junkie.

  • Christ all mighty.....Enough about Cobain already..

  • I'm from Poland and I can't believe Melvins have no popularity in my country... Stupid Behemoth took it all...

    It's isn't sad - it's horrible.

  • @Hobbit85BB And I got so angry that I wrote "It's isn't".

    Damn Behemoth.

  • @Hobbit85BB Melvins aus einr Deutscher

  • @Hobbit85BB ja ich teraz poznaje i już moge powiedzieć że naprawde są baaardzo dobrzy!

  • @Hobbit85BB Behemoth is still cool though.

  • @Hobbit85BB really? yea thats so unbelievable. its like me going to iceland and saying "Oh wow! I can't believe nobody's heard of Jaargenwundersfelft in my country!"

    :P

  • @Hobbit85BB Behemoth's black metal releases were great. Everything after that was not.

  • @Hobbit85BB What's the problem with Behemoth being the best selling band from your country? You think Melvins were ever the best selling band even from their state? You should check who are the best selling music acts from all American and European countries. You'll be much more proud of your country, believe me!

  • @Hobbit85BB I must agree. It's a shame that only a few people now this band, but at least a few people...

  • i love Kurt but it's true, he was such a little brother to the Melvins. I love them both.

  • 3:18

  • Joan of Arc is my patron saint...LOL

  • @codeaires joan of arc is my distant cousin!

  • The highest rated comment on this would be Nirvana related. Ptsch.

  • I heard Kobain did all of the finger tapping on Nude With Boots.

  • @insectovoir hmmm, well that would be kinda hard considering the fact that Nude With Boots was recorded14 years after Cobain died.....

  • @insectovoir

    I heard you should've believe everything you hear .

  • This is absolute genius. To make a song this good using mostly the same note/chord.

  • melvins drummer dale crover played skins on nirvanas "bleach" and eventually hooked dave grohl up with them.

  • @72brianjames

    According to the liner notes of Bleach, it was only on certain songs.

  • What is the meaning of this song? I thought it was talking about Joan of Arc

    Melvins, underrated band!!!! Great sound!

  • In the melvins art/bio book "Neither here nor there" they actually take a small stab at nirvana. I dont have it verbatim, but it says basically the melvins opened for nirvana in SOLD OUT STADIUM and made only $750 (250 each melvins member)!!

  • My first Concert was the melvins and mud honey In a small oly theater venue when i was 14 best first experience ever!

  • not too many people could come along and kick such huge figures like michael jackson straight to hell and guns and roses straight too hell in one night. pretty impressive if thats your thing.

  • i love the vocals in this. waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy!!

  • @Jimihendrix6699  same, same :]

  • We could annex North Korea with a song like this.  Look Kim.

  • Whoah this is kinda like Boris pt. 2

  • LOCAL BOYS!!!

  • You kinda have to wonder what Kurt did to the band as a producer, cause what ever he did, it worked for them.

  • @touretteEd

    Kurt didn;t do much of anything for the Melvins. If you look up some of the interviews with Buzz and the boys, you will hear them saying that basically, Kurt hung around the studio, spun a few dials once or twice and then spent the rest of the time being drugged out and babbling incoherently in a corner somewhere.

    I think they also allowed Kurt to carry their gear for them to a few gigs, if memory serves. And no, I am not just being a dick. Them's the facts, dude.

  • @mudfly3

    if they dont sound anything the same... then how can you even compare them?

  • @Tessmage .

  • @Tessmage

    he didnt do much to help the melvins become THE MELVINS. but you cant cut him out short... he was good friends with Buzz and the rest of the melvins and he most definately did help the melvins. he didnt do anything too extravagent but he definately helped the melvins.

  • @7kole4 and a FEW early melvins songs have similar riffs to songs on bleach by nirvana..........but at the end of the day melvins have a better sound and less of an addiction to heroine

  • @SwordsDragonsAndCoke

    they BOTH have an awesome sound, and cant say ones better than the other... but that comment on heroin is true buuut i dont think the melvins did heroin at all really man.

  • @7kole4 i kinda ment that heroine comment kinda to be sarcastic o well i know what u mean yeah im sure they didnt have a problem at all seeing as how they are still alive *looks at alice in chains and nirvana* yeah......

  • @SwordsDragonsAndCoke

    just cause someone has a drug problem doesnt mean you should let it get in the way of someones musical success. Nirvana shredded, Alice in Chains shredded. they did drugs. BIG WHOOP.

  • Comment removed

  • @Jimihendrix6699 hahahah yeah they do....

  • @SwordsDragonsAndCoke idk what your talking about ;)

  • @Tessmage Kurt used to be their "roadie" when he was young. Carrying stuff for them to get to their shows to pass out.

  • @Tessmage yeah he did hold the bags, and he did try out for the Melvins On bass but they cut him beacuse he was forgeting the notes.

  • @Tessmage "Kurt Cobain - Producer tracks 1, 7, 8, 9, 12 and 13, Guitar on track 8, additional percussion on track 1 and 13" check out the Houdini album's wikipedia page...

  • @Tessmage

    the fact that 3 songs on houdini was co wrote by kurt,and playing guitar on one,and the last wierd percussion shit...

    huodini was made in 93...

  • @bobmorten

    It's not a "fact." Forget the liner notes, because Buzz himself tells a different story.

  • @Tessmage it sounds like Kurt did alot for them... the best contributors dont try to fuck with a bands sound...the best thing you can do for your buddies is stay out of the way, and maybe turn a few nobs and carry something while you're high

  • @Thanos700

    Yes, Kurt did a lot for the Melvins... by getting smashed and then sleeping on the floor in the corner.

    According to King Buzzo, Kurt was worthless. :p

  • @Tessmage oh come the fuck on. show me the interview or quote in which buzzo said anything along those lines...i'm not a fan of nirvana, so i'm not defending them here; i'm just pointing out the fact that you made yourself look like an irreverent, bullshitting prick by saying such an arbitrary thing.

  • @catholicgirlmustache

    You're right... I made it all up. I'm just a bullshitting prick, as you have so politely pointed out.

    Now that we've settled that, you can go back to worshiping your suicidal, drug-addicted hero, Kurt Cobain.

    See how easy that was..? Have a nice day.

  • @Tessmage like i said, show me the interview or quote, and i, along with many others, won't think of you as a complete moron...i like how you totally neglected to acknowledge the things i mentioned in my comment, from me telling you to show proof as well as me making it clear that i don't care for nirvana. thus, i feel obliged to lengthen your title by adding in that you're unintelligent as well.

  • @catholicgirlmustache

    There aren't "many others," kiddo. There's only you. My original comment... the comment which has apparently set you off... has the largest number of approvals of any comment for this video. So if anyone is acting like a moron here, it isn't me. See if you can figure out who it is.

  • @Tessmage i simply called you out for putting words into King Buzzo's mouth and you replied with a bunch of irrelevant bullshit. what's moronic? lying or calling someone out for lying? you tell me. don't respond this time unless you have something that RELATES to what i initially called you out on. oh, but i guess you can't give a legitimate response without revealing the truth behind how dumb of a comment you posted to begin with. big woop for all the thumbsup.thousandsapprovedofhi­tler,dumbass.

  • @catholicgirlmustache

    I didn't put any words into Buzzo's mouth. You ACCUSED me of doing that, yes. But you are simply wrong. And that's life. Just deal with it.

    If you still have doubts, then just do what I did: go ask him directly. I'm not here to hold your hand. Nor is this a court of law... it's a stupid YouTube video. So get up off your very young and extremely ignorant ass and go ask him. That is my final word to you. Later.

  • @Tessmage it took you like 8 responses before you could come up with the lie of you talking to him personally. hah.

  • @Tessmage true dude, true, however in an interview with buzz he said that kurt didn't even move equipiment cus he was too scrawny

  • @Tessmage WOW..... i see that you are still on here talking shit about Kurt Cobain> Do us all a favor. GET A LIFE YOU FKN FAG...

  • @ottochad

    Do us all an even bigger favor: commit suicide, and have someone take pictures of your worthless little corpse. I'd like to post them on my web site, for laughs.

    PS -- your entire generation has no future. You know it -- and I know it. So have a nice day, peewee.

  • @Tessmage them's are the facts, dude? funny how you said you're not a dick, and then contradicted that remark by sounding like a little shit. grow up and use proper english. you're not cute.

  • @azurenscens

    Look who's talking. Oh, the irony...

    I used a colloquial expression in the hopes of adding a touch of levity.

    How long have you been humor impaired..? It must make your life very difficult.

    So on that note, have a nice life. I'm positive that you won't... but it's the polite thing for me to say, so I said it.

  • @Tessmage a touch of levity?! your sense of humor is almost as grotesque as your prose. and you're saying that i'm humor-impaired? oh, the irony.

  • @Tessmage Kurt didn;t do much of anything for the Melvins. Sorry? You sure you know the facts well? If it wasn't for Kurt I would probably never know about the Melvins. 80% of the people who likes the Melvins today learned about their existence thanks to Kurt. He spread the word around. The Melvins where here before Nirvana, but who knew? The student did a lot more for the master than the other way around. Carry gear? He carry them assfuck!

  • @primaryspiral You could argue that if there were no Melvins there would be no nirvana, What Nirvana did was take bits and pieces from all the bands they liked and put them in a cute little package that was just perfect for mTV

    Nirvana wasn't better than the Melvins, infact musically nirvana was far worse, they were just more popular.

  • @dylanwade2020 I agree with you when you say that Nirvana got inspired by Melvins among other bands. That's true for every band. Nobody lives in a bubble. But is it really fair to reduce Nirvana down to Nevermind? If you know their work well, you'll have to admit that the large majority of it doesn't fit in the MTV world. As for the Melvins been better than Nirvana, it's all about personal preferences. I like them both in different ways. I don' t look for the same thing when I listen to them.

  • @primaryspiral I wasn't trying to start a fight I enjoy Nirvana, Negative Creep is still one of my most favorite songs.

    Also, I didn't mean to sound like I thought Nirvana was pandering to the mTV audience, they just got thrown into it, I understand that.

    But when I read people seemingly disregard The Melvins influence, I get upset.

    No hard feeling on my end, I hope it is the same on yours.

  • @dylanwade2020 Don't worry. I don't fight against people with good taste... actually I don't fight at all.

  • @primaryspiral One of the most civilized debates on youtube, ever...

    I guess King Buzzo's intelligence wears off

  • @dylanwade2020 Your an idiot. Kurt hated MTv. ALl you fucks hurl insults at kurt and its pathetic. he was at the top whether you like it or not. Everybody slings arrows at whoever is on top. fuck you. Melvins are pretty cool but Nirvana is better. sorry. read it and weep

  • @AbsintheColour "i hate opinnions that differ from mine and you fit the criteria pal"

  • @Osthropek opinions are like assholes, everybodies got one..and yours is full of shit. lol

  • @AbsintheColour well consider me stunned, that really convinced me to throw all my melvins records in the bin and buy every nirvana album imaginable

  • @Osthropek Well, that would be boring. We cant all think the same right? ;^) I dig the Melvins man. Truth is, if the Melvins got as popular as Nirvana..everyone would disrespect them and hail Nirvana as marvelous and wonderously underground and untouched.

  • @Osthropek Cobain paid the ultimate price. He gave everything. He was so vulnerably bleedingly open that its almost hard to look at. That takes balls..I think thats why he is loved and widely more known honestly. I think Nirvana could do many things and might have very possibly evolved in a huge way given more time. The Melvins seem a little bit one noted comparatively..

  • @Osthropek What you listening to lately? im diggin the old school mainly. VU, Doors, Stooges.. Hell, even the Smiths. Sure ill get lambasted by all the "hard" folks for that one..haha peace

  • @AbsintheColour Oranges are pretty tasty, but Apples are better. sorry, read it and weep.

  • @akathasamurai you like apples better than oranges? what about tangerines? Are you referring to washington red apples or granny green apples? big difference..lol

  • @Tessmage Let me see your proof.

  • @Tessmage Them IS the facts... AND, they all said he wasn't very strong (at all. LoL), so, as a gear schlepper... he was pretty much equally useless to them as well. =)

    BUT... the guy was quite the marksman, huh??? Credit where it's due, yo.

  • @runthemachine

    I can't argue with that. :p

  • thank you for uploading this mate.

  • it's only warm my, let you stay

    moss in the mornin, might be waaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!
