-played in a sealed room where people watched them by video cams
-played a live soundtrack to a c. Jamie film
-plays concurrently under three forms of the band
-released colossus of d. Album
What else am I missing?
i always thought the most experimental album they released was Honky
- prick obviously too...
- and the recording technic for bootlicker was pretty experimental too.
- shit sandwich
- lustmord cooperation
- releasing hand-made items
- "keep it in the family" approach, i.e. regarding labels, opening acts, artwork etc.

That's right, the lustmord album was first used for a Coop art show, I think.
We need MORE Lustmord collaborations! Or at least an album heavy on the modular synth.
How about asking the audience which album the song you're about to play came from? Who else does that? It's your music, King Buzzo!
-Odd time signatures
-Their CD's are packaged with the song list on the front and the cover on the back
-Buzz's hair is an evolving experiment in itself
-Non traditional song structure not the verse chorus verse...etc
-Aluminum guitars, what's more metal than that?
-The special holiday releases are one of my personal favorites
-They aren't the first band to have two drummers but they definitely do it their own way
-They must be experimental with their recording techniques, I appreciate all the different textures they give their tracks
-They haven't painted themselves into a corner creatively like so many bands do by sticking to a trademark sound
-Very experimental merchandise: fetus, can of meat, two headed dolls, 5 inch record, so much more it surely has it's own thread
Two albums that are one unskipable track.
Multiple albums that do not have the song titles on either the front or back cover
Buzz's made up words (ie: stee, ticka, antitoxidote, etc.) used in nonsensical sentences (ie: rap a tee and tell it take no des)
Going from fast punk to slow and heavy overnight.
the three *L*s of the Melvins;
LYRICS LYRICS LYRICS.
-Releasing two albums in a row with the tracks divided in weird ways then immediately never doing this again. (Alive at the Fucker Club and The Maggot)
-20 minutes of silence at the end of Honky
-Using the back of the cd case for the album cover. This is actually great because there's more room for art but they don't do it for every release!
in retrospect the most experimental album is prick
an album i still to this day don't give enough credit
maybe because i quit tweakin
but in further retrospect compared to many avant-garde artist,
what the basis is that the melvins taking that into a heavy fucking chaos fuck!
goggles ladies, goggles.
1st chipmunk voice on non-Chipmunk album? Probably.
