Melvins - Honey Bucket Live at Amoeba, 2008

[GaveDrohl1]

It's MUCH better than the studio version, even the studio version is good.

[abravebernardmarx]

-AWE-

[Acidbas666S]

and the "worst crowd" award goes to.........those suckers of amoeba

[uduman1]

I'm amazed that this song lasts almost 3 minutes at the blistering tempo they're playing it

[2333jim]

I am a drummer. I was formerly opposed to 2 drummer bands, like Allmans or 38 Special. I never would have imagined it working, especially in a punk/metal band, until I saw these guys do it. Melvins+Big Business is a great match. I have seen them separately at the Showbox in Seattle, 3/7/04, along with Mudhoney. All 3 bands were great by themselves, but I never would have imagined this. It works.

[bongscum]

@2333jim no ones cares what you think. Oh you're a drummer! I'm so sorry

[majickalbeing]

I love the energy...excellent music..

[TheRockerSG]

In this live use Buzz Osborne the Marshall JCM 900?

[Fedstone]

This is the antidote to Simon Cowell and all of that other shit out there. Awesome.

[TheRockerSG]

It's only head's distorsion or use a distorsion pedal??? Sorry for my bad English >.<

[DameunPutazo]

Pure heaviness. Seen them once, during their 20 year tour thing they had back a few years ago.

Didn't have Cody yet; I like the direction they're taking...

[MansonNiles11]

Oh my god. I love it

[bflyseattle]

i would have lost my fucking mind if i had been there

[BoldMoldOfGold]

I like the look of the bearded guitarist face at the end "buzz, this crowd is shitt. We need to go home"

[bflyseattle]

i could be raped to this and enjoy it...

[amisaad214]

i feel like i just died, went into the depths of hell, played russian roullete with satin, ate three unicorns, took a shower with rabbit blood, threw up in the queens royal chair, punched god in the face, and then was reborn into mother mary's womb.

[masternewbz117]

@amisaad214 that works

[Indiebue]

YEAH! ... Can't stop watching – even with the zombie crowd, this is MASSIVE

[MrLetsdolunch]

The music is obviously amazing, but I love his voice the most.

[noodle92993]

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuck yeah. 

[demonchocobo]

i love th look the drummers are givving eachother. its like two people racing and just looking over at the other person.

[NirvanaNerd364]

These guys are working it!Sweating like crazy...

[toriplatypus]

[itsthearistocrat]

@toriplatypus I hope he is.

[poodook]

Buzz looks so awesome

[ACDCrocks051]

GOD DAMN IT BUZZ'S HAIR IS BEAUTIFUL. That is all.

[AleixPB]

Who were the bastards who elected the Negative button?

[webhancherx]

Motherfucker.there's a real melvins fan at 2:21.i can tell that by looking into his eyes.

[xBillyTheKidx]

this song flattened my wheelchair tires.

[goducks20101]

@xBillyTheKidx I feel you, my car melted.

[xBillyTheKidx]

@goducks20101 and they are solid on the inside.

[goducks20101]

@xBillyTheKidx Do-it-yourself steel belted radials courtesy of The Melvins; automotive pioneers and a great band as well.

[aarongtr180]

Haha, it almost looks like they're performing in a public library.

[goducks20101]

@aarongtr180 L.A.'s funny that way. If it was Orange County, people who be crawling on the walls.

[BigDan2KC9]

either the audience is dead, or is in plain awe because of the awesomeness of Melvins.

[htool11462]

Hoooooray for the Melvins!

[squirejford]

I cant stop watching this! Its so God Dang KILLER !!!!!!!!!

[123hero321]

6 people disliked because there world melted and time ran backwards.

[sopmac07]

Definetly shoven it up your ass!!! Too bad only 45,000 peeps realize how hardcore these fuckers are... This is what rock and roll is man!!!

[stressedoutmfkr]

@sopmac07 ::: Sorry bro, fewer than 45000 are aware of this masterpiece, as I account for approximately 40000 of these views......lol....Melvins forever...

[staticview]

Let my eardrums roast.

[PAULisDEADMANnumber9]

the world would be a better place if the melvins were #1.

[macleodponeage]

[ska95124]

If I was part of that crowd I would have destroyed EVERYTHING in that place D: this is too fucking brutal, brilliant, amaizing!!

[staticview]

[DeadJ0ker27]

[TheAstralDarkness]

Amazing... i luv this song... and the album Houdini its fucking awesomeeeee...!!!!!

[walt0500]

FUCKING AWESOME does anymore need to be said!!!!

[activejuan]

Theinfectiondrummer. I like you. And the things you say.

[theinfectiondrummer]

The fuck is wrong with that audience? My spinal column would have snapped off by 1:10 and then it would've been like those announcers "AND HE JUST KEEPS GOING" they would say

[skunkape2]

How can the audience not be bouncing around especially after 1:15?

[leavinghope1970]

HOW CAN @ DRUMMERS BE SO SYNC!!!??? BECAUSE THEY'RE THE FUCKIN' MELVINS!!!! TOTALLY FRIGGIN' INCREDIBLE!!! BEST BAND ON THIS PLANET!!!! nuff said...

[Xtrummer]

[lesterawilson3]

Animal! Beat drums! Beat drums!

[phytatron]

My fav video on Utube. I came to your little CD store in the middle of the day and fing tore sh* up. Suck it hipsters

[pirate6six6]

The intro to this song alone is just so...beyond convincing(?), that I have never failed to get the following reaction from any serious hip/ heavy music fan (including youngsters who dont even realize how much these guys have inspired bands like Mastodon,who rule in their own right): "Dude, if this song stops right now or the rest of the song blows, that intro would carry it alone".

Ya better effin' believe it, Mister. Or be crushed...sonically, mentaly and physically. And like it. Bitch.

[Prospektnova]

Dale and Buzz FTW. Amazing.

[UGLYFATASSREPUBLICAN]

Which Amoeba Records is this?

[jaycertheeraser]

1:09 is pure sex.

[FractalBolt]

This song fucking rules. If you don't like it you are into homo erotic stuff

[Longshot593]

The crowd is stunned into silence due to the overpowering awesomeness.

[Sui2807]

ho.....ly.......crap......... this is brilliant!

[UndergroundPhotoCO]

every time I hear this song I want to punt a baby in to a mosh pit

then run in the mosh pit and save it.

[alandschmidt]

you guys. I can't stop playing this. there is nothing better than this. Webster's Dictionary, "The Shit: Melvins Honey Bucket Live" God. FuckingFuckingFucking A!!

[gypsyola]

jesus christ.jesus FUCKING christ.

[noodles25331]

fuckin' brutal, melts your face and kicks you in the nuts simultaneously.

[Dezibelchen]

how can a band be this awesome?

[BenTVer]

Lame crowd.

[ccf1971]

@BenTVer They are in a record store. They might not want to knock things over.

[KurdtKobain09]

Fucking hell look at cody's face (At least I think it's cody - leave me alone) he's fucking going nuts....He's like...ANGRY.

[alandschmidt]

song should be called Fucking Destroy. unbelieveably great song

[alandschmidt]

take that, reality

[ROLOSEMEN]

as they grow old, they grow heavy!

[SooperPoopProduction]

what a powerful band

[plan9canal7]

Epic

[TheJayman213]

for the 1st 70 seconds i'd rather just watch the drummers tear it up more than i ever will and still keepin time like a metronome.

[ThePrettyPleases]

The Melvins sound exactly the same on record as they do live. just another reason their amazing.

[Messermann]

its too fast..why do they have the need to confrom the recent speed!?

[sainthubbins1982]

The answer to why two drummers is all over youtube in the form of Melvins live videos, if you can't connect the dots as to why two drummers after that, rinse and repeat until your epiphany comes. Hell, melvins answered that question in the first 30 seconds of the video.

[lirannine]

why 2 drummers?

[ThePrettyPleases]

@lirannine becuase it allows for whole new possibilities in music, double drum solos, the drums become louder and more impressed in the music, the beats now really support the music, it also allows for things like rhythm and lead drums which they utilies quite often in their newer music even in songs like "A History of bad men" they do it. Its just the melvins being the melvins. Finding new ways to change and create newer music.

[lirannine]

@ThePrettyPleases true, true. i allways loved the melvins for being different and creative.

[ThePrettyPleases]

@lirannine its what really sets them apart. not many artist are willing to do that these days.

[lirannine]

@ThePrettyPleases i know! the whole reason i started hearing them and grunge and hracore punk (80s hardcore of course) is becuase i wanted more real and interesting music than all of this linkin park, three days grace, death metal crap.

[DisembowelMe]

@lirannine Wait, what? Why is linkin park and three days grace connected with death metal, as if they have anything to do with each other?

[lirannine]

@DisembowelMe they are not death metal, i just mentioned them.

[lirannine]

why 2 drums?

[synesthesia67]

this is the hardest rockin I've ever seen in a library,...

[staticview]

old school hard core is the shit. Woe to he who thinks rock n roll should powder your butt.

[abstract6219]

Motherfucking Melvins mayne!! ROCK YER FUCKING ASS OFF!!!!!!!!!

[EatingABombs]

The DRUMS are a fucking MACHINE OF AWSOME-NESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is one of the bands I need to see live before I die!!!.

[derpderpdesktop]

Fat Hank Azaria looking Motherfucker at 2:20 is FEELING IT!

[derpderpdesktop]

Fat Hank Azaria looking Motherfucker at 2:20 is FEELING IT!

[lecrapauddejerri9]

Dale and Coady are so tight, especially playing it faster than usual. Can't wait to see MELVINS

[snowmonkeyca]

@lecrapauddejerri9 I love their little moment at 1:09, it just kills me :)

[JEREMYTRUJEQUE]

If you seen this stage in person you would stop and think.. "How the fuck did they fit two drummers and two fat dudes on this bitch?"

[Rockmeh88]

I'm curious to why there are two drummers?

[lecrapauddejerri9]

@Rockmeh88 on the newer albums they make the most of having two drummers, just this song was written when only Dale was in the band hence they're both playing teh same thing

[antipopboner]

it's fluffy

[walt0500]

Fuck this is so fucking awesome long live the MELVINS!!!

[SirketFloor]

Mindblowing. Love this song. Saw these at the ATP festival last year. They're like a machine.

[SordoTV]

that was probably the most amazing thing I've ever seen

[SPKaa]

Grueling!



[prince420uk]

The Melvins take me back to my school days - absolutely awesome band

[bucktoastsandwich]

i really really like this song.

[LetsGetHighOnMorris]

The drummer close to the screen looks like Bruce Cambell from Evil Dead

[jayraimie]

Holy Hell!

[Inlistd]

ace it's sideshow bob!

[TheJayman213]

HOW CAN 2 DRUMMERS BE SO SYNC!!!???

[Weirdman920]

@TheJayman213 You realize those two drummers are the legendary Dale Crover and Coady Willis

[TheJayman213]

@Weirdman920 sorry i don't realize :( i don't know many drummers. some classic ones like Keith Moon and a few more but i don't have like a whole library of drummers in my head...

[hojima]

@TheJayman213 How can a guitarist and a drummer be so in sync? Dumb question.

[TheJayman213]

@hojima good point. but to achieve the same effect, 2 drummers have to be more precise than a guitarist and a drummer cus a slight mistake among those two is easier to go unnoticed.

watever, you're right. it WAS a pretty dumb question

[hojima]

@TheJayman213 I see your point. I'm pretty sure they play seperate lines too.

[LovesAngus]

@TheJayman213 A lot of practice!

It's one of the greatest thing i ever have listen/see

[xBillyTheKidx]

@TheJayman213 practice, and oh yeah.. godliness.

come on, man. it's the melvins, first off. but secondly, it's big business. who are incredible ("grounds for divorce" anyone???). what do you think?

[MatthewBanksand]

Wow man. A show right in the middle of what looks like a small library.!!

Freakin Genius.!!!

They have opened in arenas for nirvana,the breeders,..etc and they still do live garage type small venues. !!!!

That is hard core devotion.

Do they still travel in a small van/ bus or can they afford a ride. I heard they had to cancell some shows once because their van broke down.

[macleodponeage]

@MatthewBanksand I think its actually a music store, this was like a record release show. I heard they also have a private jet called the STONER BITCH.

[JackCarver10]

It's too fast for my taste. Power is lost.

[webmaster384]

2:48 So fucking badass

[iamhaga]

Very good!

[LookitsLolWizard]

oh lol i didnt know there were 2 drummers in the melvins

[northerntao]

Kids at Amoeba, getting schooled. How could anyone stand still why watching this?

[thelonious1234]

[Sergman25]

BEASTS!

[06hrhillbilly]

Dale Crover! grunge drummer legend! playn like there no tomorrow

[escottc]

The most aggressively brutal song I have ever heard.

[ArgyleDevil]

Buzz looks like a stern warlord.

[alandschmidt]

FUCKYEAH!!

[alandschmidt]

This song RULES!!! Amazing performance. this is in a fuckjng record store? i would have a heart attack of joy if i came upon this in a record store. btw, this particular store just had it's ass handed to itself. Nice!!

[AleixPB]

I do not get tired of listening to this song

[lesterawilson3]

The Melvins OWN!

[2MorroMorroLand]

This is one of those videos that just makes you go 'FUCCKKK'

[JakSpringTooth]

The Brunette drummer guy looks like Phil from Modern Family.

[ultron35186]

[pepe7drum]

[onyachamp]

[tinclunge1234]

@onyachamp same! Did catch them on the Geek tour a few years back with Fantomas and Tomahawk. Was awesome

[OtisKrump]

After all these years all they've lost is Dale Crover's chin.

[g00mba00]

@OtisKrump hahaha true true

[taproot12]

[dreadedoc]

[melbatunes]

[darthradical05]

This is one of the greatest songs ever written.

[YourEverSoInviting23]
