It's easy to be reminded why they're my favorite band.  The Bulls and the Bees has barely sunk in, I haven't even heard Freak Puke yet and we still have another EP and a single with Kevin to look forward to!

There was a young bassist named Matt,
when drunk his bass notes were flat.
Buzz and Dale soon said 'Hey Lukin,
stop all you're drinkin' and pukin'.
In a wink he was turfed just like that!

He claims he was fired without cause.
His statements cause many to pause.
On Facebook he constantly rants
proclaiming the Melvins pissants.
He now works with hammers and saws.

:lol: ya, Lukin won't be back anytime soon.

Didn't Buzz say in an interview that he doesn't like vinyl and that it doesn't sell anymore? If so, then why bring out vinyl in the first place? Oh well, I guess I'll just have to listen to it on YouTube, if someone even posts it.

Based on things he's said in interviews, it sounds like he meant vinyl on a large scale - as in just putting out the same album, same artwork, same mix in mass quantities . . . on vinyl.  From that perspective, it doesn't sell.

What they're doing is selling vinyl more as artwork and for the "collector".  It's different from the original release in that respect.  It's limited quantitiy, the design is more unique, and especially as of late done by hand.  For those reasons they can charge more for it, and so it pays off. 

It's mass production of the same release thrown down at your local best buy vs. a unique piece of artwork they sell directly to their fans on the road.

Its 3 brand new songs and a reworking of the song Walter Cronkite by the Lewd. Walter is what they opened with on the 25th anniversary shows. It's longer, and they put in the lyrics.

Its an amazing record, and I'd love to hear a full length. You will LOVE IT.

Im really starting to feel left out, I mean, no way can I get this kind of shit...not for the ebay prices.

but I mean, I wish.

My melvins collection needs some serious work, its fallen way behind since they stopped doing CDs and put out more Vinyl related stuff.

too much HIGH END expensive shit, not to complain I think its GREAT, I just wish I could snag stuff before Its all gone and up for a fucking billion dollars on E-gay.
box sets and shit...it also sucks because there is no word of mouth where I am, none of the MORONS I know are gonna inform me on things or fill me in on released material. i gotta come here and make sure I read things carefully.


Bullshit when I think that they are like Selling advance tickets for the faggot Sheep dogs in sept, and announcing it on the radio like everyone LOVES em or something, hah, No one, would be at that show, and it shows me that inside our hearts is a vaccum that tries in vain to fill an empty soul with substance and meaning , who the FUCK WANTS TO SEE THAT GODDAMN SHIT-SHOW!!! SERIOUSLY...FUCK THAT BAND, and FUCK NICKLEBACK, ruining what little good is left in canadas music ...and like...its a big deal...phphp..fuck the losers in radio. I should not get going right now about it,..but I mean, I feel bad for all the people like me who actually could APPRECIATE a band like the melvins if only they could reach a wider audience who is more than willing to give it a chance, if only other people were putting the word out about cool bands...its a shame they cant find out on their own unless its totally by chance they find it on their own. it boils down to just plain old Greed.

its like,...uhh, what about ACTUAL music, But hey, most guys never get past the whole; Collecting certain types of music to define themselves and lifestyle choices...picking bands only because it gives them a certain status. listening only to one certain style of music...because its all they know, how narrow.

I mean that is what you go to HMV to buy. it has nothing to do with actuall music and notes and songs and shit...

its all about how cool your covers are and basically your bands name is like a brand, UGH!!!



Those dumb punk kids.

oh yeah, buy me some melvins someone. Ill give you some chips.

Can you not purchase it off the Amp Rep site? I know it is frustrating checking it all the time being paranoid about missing it, but so far I have had decent luck snagging things off there with limited emotional scarring. If it comes down to it you do own a gun.... :lol: I lurk on the amp rep board, they do let you know when they are putting it up sometimes.

By the way, I was very happy to read your "Fuck Nickelback" statement. I read a funny quote from Dave Grohl the other day:

QuoteSome people claim that if you play a Nickelback record backwards you hear satanic messages. What is even worse is if you play the record forwards you can hear Nickelback!

Track listing

1. Psycho-delic Haze
2. Stick em Up Bitch
3. Stump Farmers
4. Walters Lips

:D  Because a single, an EP, and a LP just wasn't enough in one year we get another EP...and possibly another single by the end of the year.  We're the most spoiled fans in the world.

"Opening track for upcoming EP. Cheap cd's and expensive vinyl being pressed for "51" tour now."

I hope they consider a "cheap CD" version of this new Ep too, I like vinyl but I've had a few problems with my turntable so I'm trying not to use it very often. I also hope for a more decent distribution since there are way more fans of the band out there than the ones that can go to the shows.

It sounds to me like you purchase one copy of the cd and all the different sleeves to place your one cd into.

or

"SAME CD" could mean you get 5 copies of the cd with different artwork.

It's about the music and artwork so I'll be happy either way.

I know.  I sped read through this thing and got really sad for a second because I thought I missed out entirely. I'm happy with one, and will most definitely score the vinyl later. Thanks, Jon  :D

Me too, but you know the 10"s will look awesome as well as sound amazing! No more slacking Judy!!! Check the AmRep site every 20 mins via computer or cell otherwise buy them on ebay for 5 times the original price! The CDs went on sale super late last night.I checked and saw them around 1230am .First thing I did was panic and added the set to my cat and started to check out, then I stopped realized it was just the Cds, searched and saw you could by individuals.  $8.80 with shipping is amazing!  I went with variation #2 cus it had a sorta cool hitchhiker vibe! :lol:

I'm just going to wait and pick one up at the show in a couple weeks.  Don't know how much merch they'll drag up to Alaska, and Seattle's the first show in the lower 48; so I'm assuming they won't have sold out of anything by then.

You will never stop that kind of leeching. Where ever there is a demand, this happens. The best way is to not pay. When it goes for ridiculous amounts that sets the market. At the end of the day, something is only worth what someone is willing to pay

It'll probably be on YouTube in a week or two, so if they don't put up any downloads for the tracks you can rip them off there! :P That's what I do when I don't have any cash! Sound isn't amazing, but at least you get the tracks.

I was joking hence the lol face next to my post, at first glance (after consuming a lot of pineapple trainwreck)  the spotlight appeared to be a road and it almost looked liked a hitchhiker. I know that's not what it is, just some stoner humor.

lol nice pic! I agree, it's a rad EP and totally not what I expected. For me the real winners are Psycho-Delic Haze and Stump Farmer. Don't get me wrong, the other tracks are good but those were my favorites. Also, who is singing on "Walter's Lips"? I'm almost thinking it's Dale?

Sounds like Buzz to me, just maybe with a slight effect on the vocals.  He is singing a little differently than he does normally too. I could be wrong though.

sounds like.... i don't know cuz i haven't got 'em yet!!!!! aaaaaaaarrrrrgggggggghhhhhhhh  :cobain:

It would only cheapen your 1983 experience. I wish they hadn't leaked the first song, sounds way better on the CD. Buzz does crazy shit with feedback and noise on his guitar overdub tracks but I never really heard it properly off the youtube clip. Everyone who is waiting do yourselves a favor and keep waiting, it will be worth it I promise you.

My roommate told me I got a package delivered last night, so I ran upstairs praying to myself "Could it really be? Is it finally here? IS THIS THE DAY I FINALLY HEAR THE 1983 EP???" I see the box and run at it like a rabid jungle cat. The box is a little large for a CD but I ordered some other stuff from there so I figured they packaged it all together. I tear it open with reckless abandon. I'm shaking as I remove the cardboard paper they stuffed the box with. Finally, I can see it! Its... Its.... Its my networking textbook. Fuck everything.

Wow. On several counts, first that I live in the UK and this only took a week to get here! With a bank holiday weekend smack in the middle of it to boot...and now it's finally here, it's well worth the wait! Enjoying this immensely, proving once again that no matter what the Melvins do it's the best of that particular musical endeavour's kind...and it's authentic to the 80s, even down to production values/style.  Yet again it's been a very good year for really really good Melvins!

Can't really be compared to B&B or Puke, 'cause it's quite different.
I like it a lot, well 3/4 of it. Agree on the Stump Farmer.

Ya me too. They'll probably start recording again after the 51 in 51 because they don't tour in winter. So hopefully we'll have something new in Jan/Feb '13.

Quote from: Dale CroverMinneapolis at Grumpy's! This place is our third home! I think we play here more that we do in L.A. Grumpy's isn't really a live music venue, only doing the occasional show. Our good friend Tom Hazelmyer is the owner, and that's why we play here. Tom is also the man behind Amphetamine Reptile Records. Though the label doesn't put out a ton of records anymore. We still do limited edition records and CDs, with super deluxe artwork and packaging with Tom. You can only buy these at our shows or through the AmRep website. People bitch and moan that some of these items are expensive and limited. What they fail to realize is that these items are handmade by us, or artists we like. A lot of work goes into the making of these and they are expensive to make. These items are priced as such. They are collector's items, and will be on eBay tomorrow at a 100 percent markup by some flipper. We learned that one the hard way. If you just want the music, you can find it for free on the internet. Sadly, that's the way things are now. Vinyl, full-length records, record labels and even record stores are breathing their last breath. There's a thing called Record Store Day that's held every April. Bands will make 7" records that are only available at stores on that day. We found out that some stores themselves were pulling the best stuff, and guess what? Flipping them on eBay! Gee, thanks a lot, jerks!

 The tracks are...

Psycho-Delic Haze
Stick 'Em Up Bitch
Stump Farmer
Walter's Lips

I noticed there was a blank there...I personally hope it was a typo, but could there be a secret track?

Someone report. I didn't get one of these, they must've had like 50 or something.
