they have.


sin city

originally on the 1978 release: AC/DC Powerage

I'm going to be totally honest with you and say the MELVINS version can't touch the AC/DC version.

True.  Which is probably why they haven't done it in 20 years.

The more pertinent question should be as follows; "could you see Melvins dressing up in school uniform, shorts and hats doing an AC/DC song?"

Not Melvins, but Buzz is involved.

Beginning of Salad Of A Thousand Delights DVD, Buzz is warming up and fucking around on Riff Raff. Last two albums featuring Bon are the best.

Whatever...can anyone see AC/DC doing a Melvins song?  I don't think AC/DC would know what to do with themselves....

i've mentioned them doing a steve reich phase before in the other cover threads.  just imagine the melvins doing this.  two drummers going in a phase, bass/guitar in another and then the vocals all going in one huge melvins monstrosity.  they could kill someone.

those clips were good!
saw an installation from him in a bunker under London Bridge station a few years back. Way to complicated to explain but it was friggin awesome.

Too true there. I wonder just how good 'Rays Of The Sun/To The Shrinebuilder' would sound Melvin-ized??  :-k

'What Do You Do For Money Honey Bucket'

But seriously, I like to hear Melvins do 'Let Me Put My Love Into You' or 'T.N.T.'.

Straying away from AC/DC , the melvins NEED to cover this with the current line up, fuck me that would be neat
