Except for the song from Prick. Wich are the worst
Here my pick
1- Breakfast on the fly (26 songs)
2- Scared
3- Hands first flower
4- Joan of arc
5- Lividity
6- Spread Eagle Beagle
You're joking right?
I hear they call you Pringles because you have and appendage like a Pringles can.
I heard its because he can fit two inside.
Pure Digital Silence because I can't figure the words out.
That wasn't as funny as it was 30 seconds ago when I thought of it.
goddammit
Oh yea, I love Scared and Joan Of Arc.....just sayin'
Ha! Trick question. There are NO bad Melvins songs. Only mis-understood ones. :D
Lividity is cool to play on bass. I like
The Electroretard remake of Revolve is pretty bad...

The first time I heard that, I didn't like it. Now i do. 2 cents.
Sky Pup, for sure. I never liked that obscure little throw away and I'm hoping it disappears out of the setlist before the next tour.

Pure Digital Silence
This thread is about real song.
Of course Teresascream, Message save and pure digital silence suck. But they purposely suck. So its not the worst melvins song.

No way! PDS would have secure seat if I ever were to make a best of melvins cd. It`s so refreshing.

Haha, no way.
Have you listened to the version from Houdini 2005?
The only reason I am going to say If I Had An Exorcism is my choice for the worst song is because of the way Buzz sings--if you want to call it singing--on it. I cringe when it gets to the "looks like someone took a coat hanger" part. Other than that, I have no problem with the music of the song.

These probably don't count as songs, but there are two Melvins tracks that do absolutely nothing for me:
Spread Eagle Beagle
Lividity

besides that i really can't recall any other Melvins songs that i don't like.

I think the better question is: why hagus?
Is it a reference to the sixth song on Houdini? If so, does the substitution of a first person plural pronoun for the first person singular pronoun indicate a demand for inclusiveness, a rejection of selfishness?
Or is it simply a misspelling of a nasty Scottish cuisine that I refuse to eat? Is hagus667 pretending to be Scottish? That's what this board needs. Another poseur posting comments in a fake Scottish brogue.
I would prefer fake Italian, personally.

actually, back when we were trying to name our band, a girl of scottish descent suggested "haggis" as a band name. after explaining to us what it means, we thought it was a great band name. we just assumed it was spelled "hagus." anyway, our spelling looks way better in hard-to-read metal writing:
(http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f197/hagus667/hagus02.jpg)
and I do, in fact, live across the street from the devil.
plus, hagus666 was already taken.
If it's not Hagus, it's Crrap!

No, it's written. But it was written in the style of a typical death metal logo, so no one has ever figured out what the rule is.

Ha, yeah. I wasn't joking when I said I enjoyed the lyrics, but that part could also be used 'against' TosT, from Buzz's perspective. Get it, get it? ;)
I'm not joking either.
Explain how the line could be used against TosT. I'm not sure i get what you mean.

Buzz knows something that TosT would never agree with, etc. OK, it's funny anymore now, while usually I am! Damnit!
Man, there is no such thing as a bad snivleM song!! that's like saying Buzz needs a haircut: it just cannot be.

KFC? They make me sad. They used to have awesome fried chicken. Now they are a joke. I would go get it, when my woman would go out of town. Then I realized it made me sick. There's some really low quality stuff going into that finished product. Not to mention that it is sitting under a heat lamp for longer than it ever did, back in the Colonel's day. I also doubt that they bread the chicken within a thousand miles of where I live. The Colonel would be pissed, that's for sure! I blame Pepsi. They owned Kentucky Fried Chicken, for a while.

Hot Cakes! I haven't ate KFC since I lived in 'Strayla 12yrs. ago ... it was gross there too ... but they did this "Zinger" burger thing ... it was pretty rad even in it's grossness.

The Melvins' worst song has always been Candy-O and Buck Owens.
fuck Ric Ocasek.
and fuck the rhythm changes in Buck O's.
the absolute heaviness of it all is just too much to bare.
the electronic voice gives me a tingle in booty hole even when i don't want it.
and the Tool ripped outro is just TOO clever.

Hank III can make a living just standing on stages in casinos imitating his grandfather, but instead he chose to make the music he wants to make. Seems genuine to me.

There's this whole weird conspiracy theory I keep hearing from country elitists (yes, there is such a thing) that he's actually just some guy who happens to strongly resemble the original Hank and was packaged as his grandson by record labels as a wrestling-style gimmick because he's allegedly too untalented for people to care about otherwise. Had a few insist that it's "open, documented knowledge" that he's not related to the elder Hanks in any way, but I've never actually seen or read any of it if it exists. I'd say breaking out into whatever the heck kind of music he feels like making is a good way for him to go though. He's talented. I would have loved seeing him with the Melvins.

Exactly. I had a listen to 'Basses Loaded' yesteday and as much as i enjoyed it on one level i thought to myself "this isn't cool" and it isn't! The Melvins of now are not the Melvins of the early days. They might of had a sense of humour early on with their music too but the albums didn't reflect that. The records were well put together. By the time they got to 'Prick' or 'Stag' things were getting a bit more kooky. Now however the quirky seems overloaded. There will be a "traditional" Melvins sounding song and then the very next track usually disrupts that - something that makes fun of itself. I can enjoy compiling a record like that to some degree, i admire the flip from one to the other but it certainly isn't cool. It just comes off as a joke.
The only reason I'm defending anything the Melvins do is I'm at work bored and I have Basses Loaded on constant rotation in my vehicle right now :lol:.
Basses Loaded is a great album. There's outstanding songs and even the songs you dislike fit in the context. Of course, Basses Loaded itself is a pun on the Baseball term 'bases loaded' and TMOTTBG fits in perfectly at the end. It also happens to be one of the most beautiful renditions of the song you will hear. Shaving Cream and I'm all Fucked Up mash-up is funny as hell, highlights Crover on bass who is the bands drummer! This line up is supposed to have some tongue in cheek humor.
O:)

Call me overly serious, but do you think the majority of music fans intentionally seek out music that is funny?
I think i've come to a point with Melvins now where im not really too bothered what they do. I've distanced myself from them as a fan. In fact i wouldn't really call myself a fan of the band nowadays. More truthfully an interested observer. The most telling thing for myself is that if i heard these releases from a new or unknown band i wouldn't care about them at all. I certainly wouldn't be buying them and i think that's the next step i need to take. To actively stop buying these modern, kinda poor Melvins albums.

"You Can Make Me Wait"
An awful parody/attempt at a corporate radio-friendly style pop song. Unintelligable & annoying vocoder-affected singing. Did Leary bring this crap to the table? As much as I despise this song, when I play the CD, I usually sit through it and laugh pretty hard. :lol:
On Hank3: Wish they had collaborated more than that one tour and the 2 songs on Crybaby. Melvins/Hank3 should cover "Harder Than Your Husband", & "Lonesome Cowboy Burt".
Does anyone in Hank3's circle know what his deal is lately? I can understand the freedom of not being stuck to a label and doing the album/tour-rinse/repeat cycle every year, but he's going on 4 yrs now w/ no live activity or new material.

Not one of my favourites either. In fact all three Leary songs on 'Hold It In' could and SHOULD have been omitted for me. Not that they are bad songs per-say, just not what i want to hear from the band. Without those 3 tracks, i think the album would have been a pretty good one overall.
for me, Hold It in includes Captain Comedown and Attitude, so overall not lacking too much in the kickass department. more of an album like Stag, filled with tasty nuggets that are different to say the least, but still quite entertaining. You Can Make Me Wait has always reminded me of Michael Nesmith's solo material from the movie Elephant Parts/ tv series Television parts, which he produced. we grew up listening to that stuff. I get what Paul was doing there.

I often imagined that Captain Comedown was recorded at the same time (or about then) but Attitude? You do mean the one on Everybody Loves Sausages right? I say that because Pinkus wasn't on that track and it pre-dates Hold It In.

I've made that mistake more than once. I mean Ambition from the Hard Ons split. Recorded with Pinkus at least.

Ah i had forgot about that one. I didn't know Pinkus played on it though. I find that is one of the joys of the discography page on here - i can check to see who was on bass on the more obscure, lesser known singles etc.
For the most part Hold It In really was a pretty darn kickass record, although the mixing (which, as somebody here pointed out sometime, suffers from a buried high-end) and the EGC guitar undermined some of the songs' potential. Like, Bride Of Crankenstein and Sesame Street Meat IMO actually rival The Maggot levels of heavyness riff-wise, but they don't have the sound to prove it, at least in their studio versions.
But yeah, this was about bad songs... I'm not feeling the Leary songs either, not in the context of the album at least.
Other two I don't really care for are Piss Pisstopherson and Nine Yards.

It may not be entirely true, but Buzz says the studio stuff is recorded with a range of different guitars and not just his EGC.
I never cared much for A Growing Disgust in regards to studio recordings. It's obviously recorded with the EGC and just feels really flat not to mention it's a song that "feels" like it's been done a million times. Live it's fine when it's blasting your face off but that tune is one I never could really get into.
There's also some tracks on that Love soundtrack I'd call "bullshit experimental" that just doesn't go anywhere.

I would go as far as saying that the production on Freak Puke, as well as a lot of their more recent albums (with the exception of AWWLAD, which was a step in the right direction) isn't very good. The drums sound distant and muffled and the guitar is flat. Kind of like the mids of the whole album have been cut. Still love the songs and they are amazing live but still...

That's definitely true.
I think the EGC guitars sound (and play) like shit. I miss the Les Paul days. But it is not my circus and it they are not my monkeys. The King gets to do what he wants. I am sure they use a bunch of different guitars on recordings, being in their studio once I saw a TON of guitar cases and a TON of guitars on racks ready to go.
Either a lot of people tell Buzz that or he read the forums one night, because he did say people have no idea and that the new EGC sound chunkier and deeper than Les Pauls.
I'm not really sure I can hear a difference but modern Melvins definitely have a lot less "venom" and "bite" than previous which is more to do with recording I think. Three men and a baby had that beautiful crunch and the whole record sounded like it crawled up from out of a gutter but yeah, these days they do seem to enjoy a lot more of a classic rock feel to the riffs. They're a lot less aggressive which may or may not be cause and effect of using the new ECG guitars....
Just don't go full dad rock on us Buzz..... :lol:
Quote from: (the) Razor on March 07, 2018, 08:17:35 PM

I pine for that to return to their sound. It is lacking some of that bite and aggression like you say.
As regards Melvins music, i think it is pretty clear that Buzz is still a fine songwriter. I mean look at his solo acoustic record - that had one great song after another simply because he couldn't mess with different instruments or add weird bits. It HAD to be just the songs and the result was fantastic. I wish the band could put out something more akin to that. Well written, tight songs that have a more crunchy old skool Melvins feel to them.
I'd say the thickest, heaviest, Melvins-iest studio guitar tone of the millenium is on The Bloated Pope. A few moments on A Walk With Death were reminiscent of that.
Since this thread is about the worst Melvins song of all time, I am surprised that your caveats don't include garbage from Singles 1-12, such as the A&R mixes, All at Once, or How+Harry Lauders. If anyone here legitimately would rather hear any of those tracks three times in a row instead of hearing "A Growing Disgust" or "Christ Hammer" five times, (name your tune), I think you will burn in eternal hell sweet Amish baby Jesus and we can't be friends.

It's truly terrible to me, I hate everything about it. They lost me at "yeah, dumbass".
It's far from terrible, it's just one i don't really like for some reason. Not sure why. This feeling seems to be amplified for me being that it comes off the back of 'The Decay Of Lying' which is a truly fine Melvins song.
Indeed it is and so is Choco Plumbing. It puts a smile on my face as soon as Jared's vocals come in all excited and over the top.
Choco plumbing sounds great. That's the kind of rock Melvins do best. The other attempts are not so memorable like.... embrace the rub.
"Embrace the Rub" and "Break Bread' are the least favorite songs from the new record but far from being my least favorite Melvins tracks.
Pre-2010 least favorite Melvins album track (assuming we're talking about a composed song, not an improvisation or noise piece) is probably "It Tastes Better Than The Truth." That thing just goes on forever for no reason and I don't really get why it had to be on that EP, too.
"Choco Plumbing" rules.

Whenever a new Melvins album comes out (and i usually find fault with it in some way) i think back to when i first heard Nude With Boots. When that came out i thought it was not very good. I didn't listen to it much. Then later i absolutely loved it! Bride took even longer for me! So i think Melvins albums do take a while to come to terms with. Or maybe more accurately "accept". I think im at this stage with Pinkus Abortion Technician now. I know the bits i don't care for, i know what i like and i accept it as the next Melvins statement of intent. Right, now what's next!
