Tom Waits and Kim Thayil??!!! Surprising guests considering Buzz has said a few times that he would dearly love to work with both of them. Surely this means they will in Melvins at some point!

TOM WAITS? This one is mind blowing.
Guest appearances: Tom Waits, Kim Thayil, Ty Segall... wow! This album is bound to be a genre-bending masterpiece with that kind of crew on board.
Doug Yuletide :lol: :lol: :lol:
Toronto, Lee's Palace? 29th of July?
I'm there dude.
...Sure beats El Club, I guess.
Dale, you crazay mofo!!!!!!!!!
Also, I already complained about Seeing Red KRoss at Lee's Palace, but I guess it could be a lot worse for sure...and by that I mean the quality of the dressing room and not the band of course.
...Hope it's not gonna be too too hot out, what's worse, touring in a heat wave or a blizzard?

Dale seems to be in good health
Sounds like dirt bike fixing music.

Can't Wait for Glossolalia! 🌟
The lineup of guest artists alone is enough to get excited about—Tom Waits, Kim Thayil, and Ty Segall all contributing is a dream come true. And that limited-edition vinyl looks fantastic; I'm definitely grabbing a copy before they're all gone.
Also, I'm stoked to see Dale live on tour! The mix of acoustic performances with Redd Kross and his own shows sounds amazing. The San Diego and Pioneertown dates are going to be killer. And I totally agree, the choice of venues like Lee's Palace in Toronto is awesome.
As for the weather, I hear you on the extremes! Touring in a heat wave definitely sounds brutal, but at least it's easier to stay warm than to thaw out in a blizzard. 🤣
Looking forward to both the album release and catching Dale on tour.
What do you guys think of the recent photoshoot (promoting the album) that Dale did? A photo of him sat on the floor with a blue tshirt and then one in a black cap, retro coat and Chelsea boots? He looks really different and it's a bit weird to see. Not bad, just weird. Dressed like he is much younger than he is in some ways.

genre I fully need in my life right now and I don't even own a bike.

yeah, i noticed that...he also got a bit of an "english" look...especially the one with the black cap. super weird :)
i mean in this one he looks "english"...reminds a bit of a young Paul Weller :)

He's starting to morph into Steve Turner.

One listen in so far. It's a tight little garage rock record. The special guests add some fun nuances to each track
im listening right now for the first time. it's fun.
how the hell did Dale get Waits involved? (even tho it seems like hes only on the song for 5 seconds)

i love this so much.
In one of the recent interviews (Vinyl Guide?) Dale explained that someone on Toshi's side has a connection to Waits through a manager or publicist in the family. So it's some good old nepotistic backdooring. They didn't want to ask for much and still thought this was a shot in the dark.
haven't bought/properly listened to this album yet :o
Have the CD. Great stuff. More melodic songs that could be vehicles for great live jams, more than what's on the last two solo outings. Rings comes to mind as one of the top tracks IMO.
"Rings" is definitely a winner. These are good songs.
There's a few guitar solos on here that are really dope. I need to check the credits because it doesn't sound like Dale's lead style. But they sit perfectly in the songs and they bring the whole album up a notch.
The thing that again drives me crazy is the drum sound. The snare, the kick, and the toms all have this dull plop plop sound. It's the worst on the snare. The crack of it is too thin and the the body of it just has this horrid shape. Not a surprise, it's been the sound of Toshi's studio for a decade. But I think it's more pronounced on here than on the last Dale record. You never hear this sound on the live recordings of the same songs. Dale hasn't chosen deflated tire drums or anything. It's somewhere in the engineering or mixing. Please, Toshi, I'm begging you, fix this for the next one!
i can see what you mean about drum sound
