Melvins Discussion / Re: Sneer and Snotulum

many people on here seem to hate Tool but you can tell on this board there have been more discussion about Tool lately  than about Melvins 

THIS.

Word. My guess is because currently both bands could use about 10% of the other's work ethic. TOOL could loosen up a little and Melvins could sit with an album for a bit longer sometimes.

I'd love to see Billy Fish and The Brain Center At Whipples in the setlist. Those (and tons more deep cuts) would work great with Steve

YES. especially The Brain Center At Whipples. such a brilliant song.

I don't think they played it live since the HAT tour?

That's right. Might be because Kevin has a writing credit on that song (my guess is that he is responsible for that bonkers middle section) but now that things are patched up, who knows?

Similarly underrated and would also rip with Steve: Buck Owens

That mini tour was truly great, also included the only performance of Pitfalls I know of

That squeaking woman in the crowd can be heard across so many California recordings, she haunts me

Freak Puke was and is one of my personal favorites from the last 10 years. And the shows from that tour were very very special (Including ending each one with the Definitive mind blowing version of Shevil) Trevor Dunn is a monster of talent and creativity.

I find myself saying this over and over, but what makes Melvins great is their constant willingness to try new things, take chances and change. I'd be thrilled for more of that lineup to surface, They supposedly recorded a ton of material when they made that record.

I'll just leave this here

Not much to add here but FUCK yes.

The look on that guys face at the end is priceless. He looks like Earnie Bailey who was Kobains guitar tech

I believe that's Josh Freese.

It is SO weird in these videos seeing Melvins performing in a huge arena.

Saw them open for White Zombie in ‘95 in a big place.  Saw them open for Tool in ‘99 at a giant outdoor amphitheater.  This is only weird because they are playing Spoonman.
