just discovered them a few days ago, with Stoner Witch... i like! what do you think of them? how are their different albums? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this is Arfurs department! and also Thad Alan Smoyers, I believe. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
the melvins are the best band ever. go see them live...probably one of the best bands i've ever seen. them and mudhoney rock my world. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they are my favorite band, uzim! their albums are really quite different from each other. since you like stoner witch, try Stag (it has a lot of straightforward numbers, but it also shows off their experimental side - one of their very best records). another good beginner record is Hostile Ambient Takeover (their most recent full-length album). the one that everyone seems to have is Houdini, which is also very good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh yes, they're a wonderful band! and i'd recommend you houdini as well..i love that one! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Get Gluey Porch Treatment!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is Houdini a different style than Stoner Witch? (by the way, can you enter their ? i can't catch that elephant/mouse thing...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes! excellent! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
all their albums have a different style. it's mostly heavy rock music, though. houdini has a rougher production than stoner witch and it's a bit more experimental. but it has lots of great songs. that period of the melvins on Atlantic records is a good place to start listening to their music (houdini ['93], stoner witch ['94], stag ['96]). it's their most accessable period, and strangely, the start of their most experimental. that's their entire website. if you want some basic info and a lot of speculation, you can check out |

what the fuck... i ordered Gluey Porch Treatments... and today i received this instead [see attachment below]... o_O amazon.fr also has this weird album listed as "Gluey Porch Treatment" but it doesn't mention the Melvins nor Gluey Porch Treatments nor anything on the cover. i checked the website, both albums do exist and it really is a mistake (probably from the label, since at least two sellers got it wrong the same way). guess i'll have to return it... but i really thought it was a joke at first. almost opened it. |

Er, seeing as there's an Ipecac logo on it, you really should open it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i almost did, the first thing i did when i saw i received that was a google search and a visit to ipecac.com... but ... or ... there are samples and they are just phone calls. not Melvins. |

Fucking YES dopesmoker, that is such a great album. |
||||||||
|
|

|

There are certain albums that everyone in their life needs to here regardless of what you are into. That would be one of them. I wish jukeboxes had them.... 65minutes of cock blocking in bars (Audio style) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
[#01672960] i'll check them out : ) [#01672963] yes, i knew it was a re-edition. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ok because al of this cover stuff was messing with my head. I dont own this one but my buddy does but i havent seen the cover from what i remember. Have you opened it yet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nope... i sent the seller a mail for a refund or an exchange, i'm really sure it's not the right album now - and they wouldn't accept a return if the album is opened. at worse i'll have lost €14, which is annoying but not the end of the world either. : ) btw - i just listened to some samples of the albums you mentioned (except for Crowbar, which i couldn't find), sounds good! |

I am starting to think that was it. Not sure. i will call my friend in a few minutes to check into this for you. Sleep's "dopesmoker" or "jerusalem"(sp?) is IMO a very important song in rock. Weighing in at over 65minutes long there is just alot to chill to. I see why they call it dopesmoker. :D Although i usually put it on when i am drinking. EHG has vocalist Michael williams whos voice puts him in the #1 vocalist position of all time. I could go into that. Also Jimmy Bower is a great guitarist |

The CD you recieved was: Neil Hamburger - Great Phone Calls The CD you need with say both the melvins and gluey porch treatments on the front. to almost the bottom |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i know that ^^ i'll try to get Dopesmoker. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oops ahahah! I am still drunk! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
neil hamburger is really fucking funny, but i'd say go with gluey porch treatments. ;) |
||||||||
|

|
|
Do you like crowbar? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've heard very little of their music and wasn't impressed. what do you recommend by them? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Melvins are great. Check out the Lustmord/Melvins thing. Surprisingly good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I dont know. My buddys got an album of theirs. I should look into it. It makes me feel stronger when i am drinking. Which is a good thing. Kevin Bond (crowbar) is in superjoint ritual with everyones favorite Jimmy Bower (ehg, down) They make such a great team |
