I'm not sure if this has been done before, sorry if it has been.
I thought it would be interesting to hear what others favorites are and why.
Lexicon Devil
-because of it's heavy heavy punk melvins sound
In The Rain
-is Dale singing? i think it's funny and catchy
Leech
-a classic
Scared
-Very heavy stuff
Jerkin' Kronkus
-I love the guitar effect at the end

I prefer Mark's vocals in the original version. Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeech.
yeah, i like the music mainly on it.
i've got a question, on their cover of return of the spiders who is it singing?
it sounds like mark from mudhoney.
My favourite single is the Flipper 5 inch. But that's because I'm a big Flipper fan and the Melvins do the songs justice, especially Love Canal.
I like most of the HAT singles. Black Stooges/Foaming (fast version) and Dr Geek/Return Of The Spiders in particular.
Really like the With Yo Heart Not Yo Hands single for some reason.
From the Singles 1-12 my favourite tracks are Leech, Lexicon Devil, Way Of The World, Poison, Theme and of course Theresa Screams which is probably the greatest yet most unlistenable song ever
I think it's Dale singing on Return of the Spiders. Some of my favorite singles are Night Goat, Wit Yo Heart Not Yo Hands, Today Your Love Tomorrow the World, and Promise Me. They are just really good at picking great songs to cover.
.... :?
Jacksonville!
night goat!
Once before a show I complemented Dale on his singing on "Return of the Spiders" and he told me that he had actually played everything on that recording: guitar, bass and drums. I was quite impressed. Buzz played everything on "Today Your Love...", so where was Kevin's solo cover?
This is hard.
I'll, at this moment in time, go for lexicon devil. Because a lot of people have covered this track before and i think the melvins did the best job. well, the best job that i've heard anyway.

Wha?
I like Theresa Screams.
huh?
is that just because you don't like it or because you don't know what i'm talking about?
i'm confused...

I don't understand how you could like In The Rain...
there's an alternate heavier take of Theresa on limewire:
