Nirvana/Melvins split - 1991

[VampireLikeYouAndMe]

omg first you have that perfect cover from Nirvana (it has to be said)

and then

you have the melvins, wrecking a song completely

I LOVE IT.

[TheMjolniir]

5:00

Fuck yeah.

[KurtMcGowan]

.... It seems to me the Melvins started off covering the song and all of a sudden decided FUCK IT!!! x

[evanevandu]

LEATHAHHHHHHHHHHHH. I wish it kept going with more lyrics after that. I laughed

[ross011101]

DING!

[EleanorAlys]

Cannot stop laughing at the Melvins cover lol

[lollerz16]

I literally burst out laughing when the guy said "LEATHAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!­"

[CrazyDan1984]

hahahahahaha that was great

[TheJunksVEVO]

that's so melvins.

[Anonix123]

I do like melvins, and noisy songs a lot, but this thing is crazy. To be honest, they killed one of my favourite songs. They started really good, but then, some random (Chords? Tapping? Or whatever) And random drumming? I didn't like it, but that's only my opinion. And Nirvana's cover was awesome!

[AICSLUDGE]

@Anonix123 haha thats noise rock for you

[aladinthe14th]

LOL the melvins cover actually made me laugh, it's crazy

[slumberjammer]

the nirvana thing is on the 'With The Lights Out Box'

[HeyDudeWTF]

the part that starts at 6:22 was like a fuckin sci-fi movie and at 6:45 it was like they were speeding on a highway or playing need for speed or something man i do like the melvins(not as much as nirvana of course) but i just can't describe this music

[HeyDudeWTF]

the melvins cover made me felt like i was in a half jungle half construction area

[jowenlondon]

Anyone know where I can download this?

[athroughme]

Whoa? Never heard this version of Nirvana's Velvet Underground cover. Just the bootleg copy. Thanks for posting.

[dropd26]

@athroughme No prob I love the jammy outro.

[SimonJohnRichie]

@athroughme Buy the with the lights out Box theres this version on.

[TheThrifty1]

lol i love the Melvins!!!

[TheLongingSH]

If you guys are complaining about The Melvins' cover, you obviously have no idea who the Melvins are or what their playing style is like (Drone Doom Metal, Sludge Metal) I think it's just fine

[TheSaucyAuto]

@TheSaucyAuto Was it something I said?

[werewolf4797]

the nirvana part is awesome, but I thoroughly disaprove of the melvins' part. I love the melvins, and venus in furs is my favorite vu song. THAT, however was not venus in furs, it was a chainsaw eating venus in furs.

[JBPURCELL]

even after this, the Melvins are still a superior band.

[nirvanarools1989]

here she comes now is one of my all time favorite covers. next to the cover nirvana did of where did you sleep last night.

[mackmccann]

God, i love the Melvins!

[hiddenpunk291]

i think i heard an elephant.... but then i realized it was a trumpet.. elephant would make more sense though

[BadSauceFilms]

Based on the Velvets own love of beautiful noise, i.e. Sister Ray, The Black Angel's Death Song, etc. they would have loved the Melvins cover.

[AiCLol]

WTF. When the Melvins were like "Shiny Shiny, Shiny Boots of..." I thought it was gonna be good, then it just exploded...

[TheLegitMan93]

Nirvana's cover is really cool. The Melvins' cover is just hilarious.

[mikeellerbeck]

um, what the fuck was that Melvins thing?

[dropd26]

Them half playing half destroying Venus In Furs.

[mikeellerbeck]

Yeah, Nirvana actually did good with their cover but the Melvins completely bullshit all over it.

[AwesomeSauceLimited]

@mikeellerbeck its a joke.

[colbdawg]

im beautiful like a loose cute asking to be pounded by the forces of yes terd days youth.

in a nut shell

[Speichel]

this isnt venus in furs anymore

[deadboys1010]

hahah, its like the Melvins segue "Venus In Furs" into The Stooges "LA Blues."

good stuff!

[chrisrocco]

one of the best melvins covers

[chayseburns]

the melvins cover sux. i do like the nirvana one though

[RESTLINXXX]

velvet underground one of the best bands ever and both covers are great

[KurtCobainSchool]

beautiful.

[nebnubs]
