Title: Next album project
Post by: ))))(((( on June 05, 2016, 07:21:14 AM
''we have a whole other album that's done, but it's a project that we can't even talk about yet. Hopefully it will come out by the end of the year.'' - Buzz


I really hope this is (what im referring to as) Melvins XL. Buzz said more than a year ago about an idea to have a version of the band with Jared, Coady and Trevor all playing bass together - one big Melvins line-up. There was a photo posted on here of them all together too. Jeff Pinkus was in attendance also. Could that be the next project?? Buzz, Dale, Jared, Coady, Trevor and Jeff on every song!!! I really hope so!


Outside of that other ideas that floated around or were rumours as i recall were...


-another Lustmord collaboration.
-a collaboration with Void Manes.
-more Melvins Lite since the band said they had recorded 50 songs with Trevor and that they would come out at some point.
-a potential album featuring ONLY Buzz and Dale. Like that gig they played with Dale on that little cocktail drum kit.
-maybe a record with Steven McDonald.



What would you like or expect to see?

I'd like to see them do an album with the remaining members of America. Get Buzz and Jarred in there on some good harmonies. Maybe do a few covers. Ventura Highway would be cool.

Im not a fan of 'Moving To Florida' but yes i've always wanted 'Graveyard' to get the studio treatment. Especially after that live video performance outdoors they did. Wish they had included that song on Hold It In. As for other covers, the same goes for Devo's 'Mr DNA' that the band played on tour with Jared and Coady around '09. That would make an excellent addition to an album. Funny how the band are recording a lot of older "traditional" cover songs lately. You know - Ballgame, Shaving Cream, Tie A Pecker, PGX3, You're In The Army Now etc.

Remember, they said they do that because these songs are public domain. No legal hassles for covering them. No royalties to pay.

I never remember the band saying that! Although it does make sense. Personally i'd much prefer Osborne originals to covers though.

I might be wrong but i wouldn't say Melvins and the bands Pinkus has been involved with are that far removed from one another.

Venomous Concept too but I don't think that would be considered "surprising". My first two thoughts were an album with Krist Novoselic or Kevin Rutmanis but not sure either would be surprising.

I know the Flaming lips Zareeka is a lot like this but there's this electronic fella that goes by "The Electric Company" and he put out two records that are supposed to be played simultaneously and goddamn it's awesome. I used to have a dj mixer a long time ago that had four inputs on it and I would always throw on to different records and play them together because a lot of the time it worked well. Two of my favorites to play together was Squarepushers "Go Plastic" and pretty much any Merzbow. That shit sounded really cool.
I would be totally down with a COD companion to be played together!

Maybe it's something with jack white. I'm only throwing that out there because of the re-releases and because of his superstar status they might not be able to talk about it due to his managers and contracts and blah blah blah. I don't know how I'd feel about that match up. It wouldn't excite me as much as a Kevin reunion but it may be interesting.
I guess the only other people in the Melvins circle of friends along those lines (superstar) would be krist noveselic (which lets just hope it would be better than "maybe I am amused") and maybe Adam jones! Maybe he's tired of waiting around for the tool album and decided to jam with the Melvins.

Yes, i wondered whether it was someone "high profile" too. There doesn't appear to be many realistic candidates but then who has a clue who the band may know or cross paths with. I'd like Steven to get his own album with the band and as good as Melvins + Krist sounds, i don't think i would be as eager to see that now as i would have been 20 years ago. I wouldn't want to see Jack White either. If it is a new bassist whom feasibly COULD be included i'd like to see Shane Embury be involved. The recent Melvins/Napalm Death shows have convinced me it would make for a great collaboration. Perhaps something heavy again too!

I know! As much as i love The White Stripes, i think Jack White being associated with Melvins to the point of being IN the band would be terrible!

Meg White as 2nd drummer???

Some scintillating little tidbits here below in this interview! A fourth Kiss inspired EP?? Kevin Rutmanis maybe? Steve McDonald? Trevor??


Crover: There'll be two new Melvins things, probably, this year.

Osborne: We are working on a new album right now. Almost done. And then we'll take it from there. It's something we've never done before. It has a twist to it that we've never done.

Crover: There's gonna be some reissues of [1992's Kiss-satirizing solo records] coming out too. As well as a surprise fourth one. Remember, there was only three. The solo records, the Kiss parody, we parodied Gene, Peter and Paul – there's one left over! Somebody's gonna do a fourth one. You can probably guess who that person might be.

Most likely McDonald.

What's next for the Melvins?
Crover: There'll be two new Melvins things, probably, this year.
I'm also working on a solo record that I've been planning for a while. It's gonna be on Joyful Noise.

Osborne: We are working on a new album right now. Almost done.

The initial five live dates for [Crystal Fairy] got cancelled. Are there new Crystal Fairy tour dates being booked?
Crover: Working on it. Trying to work on redoing everything.

I'm all for the Melvins putting out a solo album of stuff with Steven singing everything, but it should have Dale and Buzz on it, maybe his brother, but not with mercenaries who have nothing to do with the Melvins. It isn't 1992 any more. What's the point?

I always find it a bit funny how the band (and Buzz in particular) often make such a point about this. The fact that the latest thing they are involved with is something completely new and uncharted for them, however then we hear it and it sounds basically like Melvins again. Although i understand if the process is different for the band themselves.

"Actually there are two records coming out. One of them will be a record with Steve; it's a double record. The other one is sort of a secret, but it's going to be us and Steve and Pinkus. So two bass players. Jeff came to town and we ended up recording some stuff. We didn't plan on it, but we recorded a whole other record. It just happened." - Dale.

Im surprised you guys haven't responded to or got excited about this album news!!!

Maybe i love the intrigue and the interest TOO much!? Anyway any ideas what this double album could be? Makes me wonder if it is a proper double record as in 2 CD's or whether they mean 80 minutes of music like an old double gatefold record in the 70's or such. Buzz loves The Who's 'Tommy' so this could be the Melvins version of an epic. Maybe that recently mentioned "history of rock n roll" record that was discussed by Steve?

Alternatively if it's something unique and weird perhaps a double album could mean something like what Neurosis or The Flaming Lips did where you play both CD's at the same time to hear the "full" songs. Or maybe its the same songs on both but done differently on each in some way? Maybe Buzz and Dale on one and Steve and Dale on the other?? Either way im expecting something slightly odd to come out of this.

cool. looking forward to the new tunes with Steve.

"Crover added that the double-album is all-new Melvins material, but didn't specify as to the contents of the other. And they have yet to decide which bassist to take out on the road with them. "We're working on plans now. I hope we do both. I'm sure that we'll work it out. It sounds really cool when we're playing with both those guys. We were like, 'Oh yeah! This will work!"

so does this mean, two bass players at once? :o

"Announcing our new, double album, a first in Melvins history:
A Walk With Love and Death, out July 7 via Ipecac..."

Sounds interesting. The title comes from a John Houston film of the same name. I think it's from the late 60s I hope it's cohesive and not just 18 songs thrown together.

We know there is another album due somewhat soon-ish featuring Steve and Pinkus but also Steve mentioned briefly about Buzz asking him and his brother to work on a "history of rock and roll" album project. Im guessing that one will be AFTER this Steve and Pinkus one next year or such. Anyway intrigued by this and because i love those sorts of tidbits it made me wonder if this release might actually be another covers record. One that charts rocks progression from song to song. After all the band have quite a few songs they have performed fairly recently that have never got the studio treatment. Plus we saw the band recording 'Leech' in that Mix With The Masters video clip a few months ago. Might that get a re-work job just like 'Euthanasia' has?? Could it end up including these???



64 I Want To Hold Your Hand (The Beatles)
69 Stop (James Gang)
70 Saviour Machine (David Bowie)
71 Brown Sugar (Rolling Stones)
77 Pinhead (Ramones)
79 Mr DNA (Devo)
84 Leech (Green River)
87 Graveyard (Butthole Surfers)
97 Bacon Industry (Karp)

Following a few links i found a Void Manes video with the following description...

"Void Manes plays gloom-psych, and has collaborated with the Melvins, Hepa-Titus, and Mike Patton. Forthcoming releases include a collaborative album with the Melvins paying tribute to Throbbing Gristle."

Also there is this photo on Void Manes Insta from Feb 2017 showing Buzz working on "TG sessions".
