I can't think of a more influential band than the Melvins.... They are life-changing... I know a few songs on bass, and I will cover them if I got a band together.
My brother in-law introduced me to them....Good God i fuckin' love them....Raw, intence, freakishly loud, "the scream of American Resistance Art", on Coke with a downer in hand, ever ready to blow an ear drum.
I love the Melvins. Is there another band that has been so good, and so heavy for 25 years? I've seen them play in the 80's, 90's, and again last year. (Yeah, I'm getting old.) Sometimes I forget about the Melvins for a while, then I listen to them again, or they come to my town, and I realize again how great they still are.
to AICSLUDGE: I saw the Melvins last year and the opening band was called "Big Business." (They were really good.) When they finished the drummer and bass player from Big Business stayed on stage and played the whole set with the Melvins. It was great. Especially because Dale and the Big Business drummer play "opposite," one is right handed and one is left handed. So with their drumkits side by side they looked like a mirror image of one another. x2 drums is a HEAVY sound.
ggzo3, that wasn't a one time only deal. Big Business and Melvins are merged. Have been since 2008 when they dropped (A) Senile Animal. The double drums is great. I wish so bad they'd come down to Arizona and play a set. This is my favorite band of all time and I've still never seen them play.
ive seen then 4 times and i am praying they come back i have drumsticks signed by dale my tickets were signed by dale and buzz also they signed my guitar hehehe i lived just down the road from where they played in london ont and no they dont smoke i tried trust me but i got a hardy salute from buzzo after the show hope u read this buzz u da man i love having u rip my head off and i am begging u tocome back i need a live fix 4 times just isnt enuf last show had 100 ppl max
I'm pretty sure they still are, even though Buzz apparently has a history of heroin use with Kurt Cobain so he preaches against it today for obvious reasons. I was at a show where this drunk acquantance of mine apparently wangled an invitation into their dressing room with a bag of pot, because his uncle was a photographer at the show. They were joking about it later onstage, saying "Drugs are only worthwhile if you can shoot them up your ass".
i dont know why people care if they smoke or not.. i guess they have their drugs of choice as everybody. why not pot, right? and smoking doent make you to forget thing like music..
Nah all you need to enjoy the Melvins are your ears and your balls
Nov 20 taking Chicago yet again at the Bottom Lounge
They've destroyed this city so many times over the past 20 years it's like the Roman legions coming back to pillage & conquer - again-reminding everyone who's in charge. Charge!
ojala hagan una gira mas por sudamerica , yo se q no tienen buena prensa , ni son tan radiables,ni son tan lindos como dice buzz pero pueden hacer un esfuerzo
hay q ser un gran imbecil para decir q melvins es una mierda , solo lo puedo entender a los imbeciles q se pasan viendo mtv todo el dia como ese rodrigo , q lastima q sea de esta parte del mundo , q injusticia pinochet mato a tantos y este animal no se fue
i just saw the melvins early this morning with big buisness. great show! i even got to meet dale after it was over and he was really nice cool and funny and pretty drunk.
melvins rule! kevin was cool, but they're so damn MIGHTY w/big biz now...great quality vid, awesome medley...brain center has been my fave since it came out...revolve is unbelievably fast! how come euro TV gets this and we schmuckos in the US get poison & the crue on our "music" TV...oh wait, i already know the answer to that(it's green & paper w/dead guys on it)
i cover this only for myself, its nothing u sould do in front of people, or u deserve to get stoned (i mean killed with rocks n stuff) hail to the king
will I ever get to have my ass handed to me by this amazing band's live show? Please god let them see a day. Lucky bastards got to see AMAZON, Revolve, And JUDY!!! god dammit
Watching this over and over again reminds me about fucking amazing this song is, any one intrested in seeing a cover of this song? Looking at related videos and watch the Propaganda version, my band. Hope you like.
Enough on the stupid band guy. This is a fantastic video!!! Thanks to seasofluck and Youtube for letting me experience this! I cant remember the last time the Melvins came to Oklahoma lol :P
Just checked your page. Dandy warhols? you listen to anus music. I hope you pay attention to the world's daily attempts at trying to explain to you that you are a fuckhead. take heed next time. bye bye birdy.
O.K., fair enough...I assumed your comment was directed at the band. I still think dandy warhols suck the big anus though. now Im off to drive my pick-up home to beat my wife.
This was Vilar de Mouros '06. And, BruzerMachotti, download the Tomahawk show, that followed, and i bet you wouldn't even go near the stage. All bands love portuguese crowds, pussy!
That break where Buzzo swings back and the sun is shining behind him.... that is some excellent camera work. So epic.
