THE MELVINS have set "A Senile Animal" as the title of their new album, due on October 10 via Ipecac Records. The band's first recording with new members Coady Willis (drums) and Jared Warren (bass) from BIG BUSINESS was recorded in Los Angeles.
Commented mainman Buzz Osborne: "I'm very pleased with the results and I can't wait to play this stuff live."
THE MELVINS' most recent release was the "A Live History of Gluttony and Lust" CD, which came out in May 2006 through Ipecac Recordings. It is a live rendition of their 1993 "Houdini" album.
Hmmm...the Melvins never fail to surprise on the record name front :lol:
Nobody does it better! They're averaging a new release every six months or so these days.
Yessssssssssssssssss! I can almost hear it in my head. It's gonna be their best one yet!
Excellent news!
Interesting that they've already got a title for it despite only recording for a couple of weeks.
EDIT: I forgot what a well drilled unit the Melvins are!
So are they done recording now? I'm really looking forward to this, but that's a given.
my impression from the article is that its already in the can,
maybe theyre in the mixing, artwork, mastering phase now.
According to this . . .

it's in the can already !
Oh sweet, he answered one of my questions!
Does anyone have goosebumps? This could very well be the pinnacle Melvins release. My imagination on how it is going to sound is running wild at this moment. I challenge you all to be spoiler free. No soulseek. Wait for the album.
It's going to kick holy ass! Big B and Melvs, boy howdy!!
I'm glad that I'm a fan of a band that is composed of such hard workers.

I mentioned this before i think but i always like to wait for Melvins albums until they are actually released without any spoilers. It adds to the excitement in my opinion.
Melvins with Big Business, My balls hurt... I'm that excited.
Sweet Jesus & the Holy Shits!

=P~
This fantastic newness pleases me.
I've probably missed Alec Empire has replaced Coady.
holy fuck! wait a minute, so I'm to believe they recorded this the first week in july and are releasing it in october???
I would venture to say that is the shortest time between recording and release in the history of modern music.
tis a great, great day.
double fro's and double kits on the stage in your's and my very near future. WOOP! WOOP!
I can't help but think the title is an anagram of some sort,
knowing buzz's twisted sense of humour. maarten??

Sometimes I see anagrams everywhere, the more you practice at making them, the easier it gets. But a lot of vowels definitely helps.
Anal mean is lie
Amelie is anal
Shit, an extra 'n' ;)

Try to live a unscrupulous life, it's so much easier. Especially when a new Melvins album is coming up.
fuck that, download it and buy it! just say no to scruples. where would the porn industry be without unscrupulous persons.

I've been a fan for 13 years and I haven't EVER been this excited for a new album. Long Live the King!
I haven't been this excited about a Melvins album since H.A.T was coming out. And then I managed to spoil it by getting hold of downloads off the net before it's release.
when it came out - there was only one track I hadn't already heard.
It kind of spoiled it for me..
So I recommend you don't make the same mistake.
Don't download pre-release tracks because you won't be able to resist listening to them over a hundred times - and then when you get the album .. nothing is a suprise anymore.
Let's all stand together..
Resist the temptation..
No pre-downloading..
Hell, I'm not even going to listen to the sample track that ipecac are going to have on their site!

Oh well, if that's it, I'm more than used to that. Probably one of the reasons I find myself buying lots of albums lately I have never heard before, a aQ (http://aquariusrecords.org/) review will do most of the times. And with certain labels and people involved, you can't go wrong really.

I waited so long to get a copy of Houdini Live (well it seemed like a long time!) and it was the best thing to do. By the time you get your greasy little mits on the cd the excitement is unbearable!
I shall therefore be doing the same with the new album! :D

the thing is that makes it really painful, is that my friends that aren't into the melvins as much as i am are going to rub it in my face that they've heard it.
in this case, is homicide legal?
so far, i haven't been patient enough to wait for ANY melvins release to come out....starting with HAT (their first new release since I had been into them) I've downloaded every damned cd they've put out as soon as I could get my grubby digital mitts on them.
I wanna wait for this one to come out on October 10.....but I know that ain't gonna happen
i can't wait to see the new artwork by mackie....i've been slightly disappointed with some of her new stuff (altamont cd, houdini live) since it's not quite as erection inducing as stuff like stag or HAT, but i have faith in the O
i am happy.

However, in the "Ask the Band" interview, Buzzo says:
QuoteShe does for the most part but she's very honest about what she thinks and I usually only play things for her once I get it more figured out. Her input in our music is on the art end. We talk over art stuff all the time. It's great. Our record covers are VERY planned out to the smallest detail. They are perfect for what we are doing even if most people don't even notice.

I won't wait, that "builing excitement" shit is for the birds. That's precoius hours of my life I could be hearning new MELVINS music that I'm not. I get the same excitement rush waiting ofr it to D/L. Plus, I get 98 % of the music I buy from my friends record store and I have in the past been in the position where I had to let him sell my copy and wait a couple of days to get my own. I'd rather feel free to let some other MELVINS fan get there hands on it and help out a friend.
Just don't D/L instead of buying it altogether, 'cause that's bullshit.

I am going to attempt to receive a promo from Ipecac of the Melvins' new album for a review in Vital Weekly. It is a free weekly emailed music review zine of experimental music. I doubt I will have success though.
Cool. It looks like I made some headway. They referred me to their publicist. I asked for promos of anything they want to send. I now await the publicist's reply. Hopefully they will send the Melvins new album when it is nearly ready.
ARGH!! killer news.. well, one more title for my list.

Damn straight.
I'll probably download it and listen to it, as I never listen to my CDs (still buy all the new Melvins albums, though).
I know i was a bit excited for p.o.t.r.e. to come out. I was in NY for a first time visit (probably only time), and went to a record store that played THE BLOATED POPE when i was checking out cd's. It blew me away, but was completely different than the most of the album.So i just like hearing the album in it's entirety on the day it is released.
I like p.o.t.r.e., and will be ready to pick this up on the day it comes out on cd, vinyl if it's going to be distributed in that format.

well...yeah i read that interview, i just don't know what i could be missing, looking at a simple vector tracing of a bird, a snowman, and some stock photos and illustrations. i guess i just want something a little more involved, like with the stag artwork, or some of the stuff she did in Neither Here Nor There.....maybe she just blew her load on that book and has been half assing everything for a while since then......
A different take here, but when I was playing the new Houdini yesterday and Spread Eagle Beagle was on, I had to think of the cover of a book I've read, The Wind Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami. Now that I've finished the book, I understand it's a man fighting in the dark; somewhere between the real world and our unconscious world. That's what Dale reminds me of too, on SEB. As if he's playing in the total dark, and attacks invisble demons randomly, all by instinct.
Oh yeah, so, and then it hit me the new Houdini artwork
is also has nothing to do with that vague observation.

my thoughts :lol:
whens the gudamnn leak coming through and why am i scared of this album? well actually i know why. anything that involves anything new concerning them really hypes me up----- my safety net of sludgey drool was banished long ago and ive come to terms with everything new. im a big fan of leaks. i tend to give an album more of a try if its before the release date. some pschological dependency on immediate grattification.
anyway,
lets wrap it up----
big business is better venture than the last album- im not saying im NOT a jelvins fan i just much preferred the oddness of the lustmord collab.
it all comes down to sharing really. learned in pre-k - have yet to perfect.
as always: :shock:
No leaks. It's much better to wait for something like this.

On top of that, I love the "see the movie before you see the movie" trailers.
Nobody likes to be surprised anymore cause it frightens them.
Why does making yourself wait extra time to hear a album make it any better. Does the album age like wine? The first time you hear a good album is always the best, no matter if its a month before it releases or the second.
And Live is always better.

Jesus man. I go on summer holiday for what, 6 weeks and already feel like I've missed so much!! A brand spanking new Melvins album. Bloody hell. This is some fucking year for music. And I still feel the best is yet to come: Strapping Young Lad, Slayer, Boris, Mastodon and now Melvins!! And those are just the ones that come to mind instantly. Wonderful!

wowwee! who knew? not me!
i knew i'd miss something if i stayed away too long. now i sorta wish i hadn't returned till october 3rd.
i've decided, while reading this lengthy thread, that i will download about 10% of the album. maybe one or two songs, and listen to them a lot. i need to know what it sounds like, but i don't want to ruin the whole experience. (as if listening to it is ruining it.....?)
then again.........not knowing what it sounds like at all would be pretty cool........
AH! i'm excited. for the first time in a while. weeee
What also doesn't make sense is the dates:
tour starts in Sacremento on Sept 6, 2006
The release date for A Senile Animal is October 10,2006
Why start a tour with out the new release to sell? I mean i'm not complaining, but does it make good business sense? Maybe it's because they are all so busy?
I remember the HAT tour and by the time I saw the first show that year I had all of HAT memorized.
Quote from: Dudbean on August 01, 2006, 05:59:33 PM
So why is it that almost every single album gets leaked before the release date? I know bigger labels give tons of promo copies to radio stations, and they usually have asshole DJs who go home at lunch just to be the first dork to put on album on Limewire or something, but what would stop a Melvins album from being kept in the dark until that fateful Tuesday? Ipecac would surely give out some promo copies, but is that the only way that H.A.T. ended up being heard by us folks? Is there something about this whole process that I'm missing?
The same thing is done by some of the people who are given Ipecac promo copies. Hopefully those who download Melvins studio releases will go out and buy the actual albums.

What also doesn't make sense is the dates:
tour starts in Sacremento on Sept 6, 2006
The release date for A Senile Animal is October 10,2006
Why start a tour with out the new release to sell? I mean i'm not complaining, but does it make good business sense? Maybe it's because they are all so busy?
I remember the HAT tour and by the time I saw the first show that year I had all of HAT memorized.
Yeah, and they played HAT in it's entirety, awesome.
Dale looks a lot like Johnny Ramone when he was older, don't you guys think?

Ok, just a little maybe.
proud to say I never heard one song off HAT before I bought it. of course I wasn't a member of this board then either. temptation wasn't really an issue.
I say I am not downloading this album, I'm waiting for the official release. but its going to piss me off to no end when everyone here is talking about it in september and passing around the download like a drugged up groupie.
lord give me strength.

Ha, that means this weed is working. I finally found a coffeeshop near my work with quality stuff! There are two shops literally within 20 seconds from where I work, but this one is located on my walk back to the metro station (a 2 minute walk), and it's almost next to the cult videotheque I rent movies on a daily basis.
Life is beautiful, but coffee gets cold.
I'm gonna watch the rest of Twin Peaks now.

I like it. Tsvery Melvinsish.
the background doesnt look like water at all tho
I can dig it, sucka. I think it fits very well with their past covers overall, too.
i like it/it will make all them hardcore kids stay away.i think its an interesting cover def. different.but like buzz said alot of bands like to use smoke and mirrors to cover up how bad they suck.but we all know this is going to be an amazing time in music. :D
fuck the cover give me the cd.
Sometimes the Melvins covers say just "Melvins" and sometimes, "the Melvins".
I do believe it will once again be one of the "backwards" packaging, from the looks of it.

Good.
Is that 22 fish? How many albums have they put out? Maybe the half fish on the upper right is half because it represents Eggnog.
The color of the background is reminiscent of water, but the white part of the water looks like a faded pic of some sort of close-up cross section of bones. Maybe the ear-drum cavity?
can't believe I'm actually talking about this but....
the background haze looks just like the bottom of a pool to me.
I like the "briney deep" theme.
by the way, I'm out of order, YOUR out of order, this whole damn thread is out of order.
we got a (A) Senile Cover thread somewheres.

I see what you mean, a friend of mine has the same 'problem'. I'll admit it has an eighties vibe indeed, and usually I don't like that sound a lot too, but for Jared's voice combined with his bass playing and Coady's (Cody? Damn, the guy is a Melvin now and still I don't know how to spell it. Ok it's Coady) phenomonal drumming I'm gla to make an exception.
the melvins started in the 80s, whats your point? :P
I had the same problem with Big Business' vocals, but Ive come to realizing after seeing them live that its not his voice, but that his vocals are so damn loud on Head For The Shallow. check em out live (opening for The Melvins!), I think you'll agree....
I always thought he sounded a little like our man Buzz at times.
i canNOT imagine:
the new songs
the live show.
i mostly can't imagine the show because of the new songs.

thats cool. to each their own. I wish no one any ill-intent. don't get me wrong, I'm fighting the urge to download this already. it will be a battle I don't know if I can win. I'll take it day by day. but as soon as you fuckers start slinging it around and discussing it my will may break. (see? I'm already making excuses.)
btw blag, just bought my magic stick tickets about 20 minutes ago (current time 10:31 am.) I'll see you there. we'll partake of a substance or 2 together. hows that sound?

haha, me too! i always know what i'm getting! i often tell klump what i got him as well. but i actually like to wait for new albums, probably because i want to have the whole package to create an image in my mind. wow, that sounded gay; lets add a few rainbows just for fun.
i often download like one song or something, and listen to maybe half of it before i get the cd, just to tease myself. if i listen to the whole thing once, i usually can't stop listening to it, and i'll get tired of it, and it wont be such a big deal to get the cd. meaning i would have to have a break from it before listening to it again. (believe me, i usually break down and listen to it all, and spend my money on cds i have already overplayed).

hmmmm... hilarious.
(The) Melvins (A) Senile Animal The Melvins are family entertainment on another level. Some people say The Melvins are the wave of the future. Some people think The Melvins have already influenced a huge wave of music on a global level but most people expect The Melvins to totally fuck up. Most people think they should be called "The Fucks" because they're fucked. Well, maybe so, but nonetheless it's the last half of 2006 and The Melvins have a new new NEW album called (A) Senile Animal. (A) Senile Animal was recorded in Hollywood and as you may or may not know. The Melvins have been through a lot this last year: wars, drugs, impeachment but they never lost sight of what was important AND what was festering in their bowels. Once again the Melvins have "started over" with two, count em TWO, new members, Coady Willis and Jared Warren from the band Big Business. This will be super colossal and totally beyond reason. We can't even believe it's happening but believe it or not it's becoming more and more believable. No shit man! It's like that drug trip I saw in a movie when I was on that drug trip. And there it is my friends. One thing you can be sure of is this (A) Senile Animal album is really really great and it really works! It's ten songs long and is most likely the best album they or anyone else will put out this year or any previous year or ever probably. They have double everything this time. Double drums. Double, triple and even quadruple vocals, double bass and guitar... Well, not really double bass and guitar but... Well sort of double bass and guitar but in order to explain how that works we would have to get into a lot of technical mumbo jumbo that even we don't understand so let's just leave it at the double drums. DOUBLE DRUMS everybody! And, AND... The Melvins will hit the road with Big Business in September for a full United States tour. Keep your eyes peeled for the dates in your town or at least a couple of hundred miles from where you live. Take a road trip with your friends and go see the Melvins. Take time off from work, get your tickets and go go go to the show show show. Or shows. You and all your friends should go to as many of the Melvins shows as you can because all sorts of crazy shit will be happening. It will be un-fucking-believable and besides, hell, why not? It will be a kick in the ass! Well, earlier in 2006 and as usual the seemingly tireless Melvins released yet another brand "new" CD. Big surprise. This time, as a result of their strange work last year in Europe with the famous Trevor Dunn playing bass they've recorded a full length record entitled "Houdini Live: A Live History of Gluttony and Lust", which was released in May. So put down your beer bongs and your crack pipes and dash out and buy two or three copies

I hear you vin. I thought it was someone writing a review and stealing quotes from Buzz's post on the ipecac band page.
once I got to the end and saw buzz's name I rethought some of the statements as humor and sarcasm.
I've said it before, buzz has a strange writing style. I think he doesn't pre-think any of his liner notes or published writings. he just sits down and starts writing. makes for a loose, conversational read.
well, Im sure it just looks like its loosie goosie...
I bet its an hour or two of sweat palming before he ships it off for our eyes to see.

Allmusic review :)
Good find, Klump. I forgot to scour allmusic.com. This makes two sources now that describe this album as a straight forward yet heavy type of album. Which is what I expect some who frequent this little realm of ours have been wanting for some time.
it sure does sound like it's gonna be delicious! 8)
I have not downloaded a melvins album yet ive been able to wait till they where released but this one is gonna be a test and a half its like having the tightest wetest cunt in front of you and being told now dont fuck/lick it till october the tenth.

ixnay on the ishtay
october might never come ...
what album?
you will eventually. i would think. all melvins are the same, right?
trust me
Quote from: Smokable Birth Control on August 29, 2006, 12:55:40 PM
I dont care for this album
why would you go and say a thing like that?
:-#
To provoke your reaction ;)
Honestly, I don't care for it either. See my review in the leaks thread. It's really just one big "shoulder-shrug and move on," if ya know what I mean. I give it 2 mehs out of four stars. Now excuse me, my chest is feeling heavy because I'm having a "fear of heart attacks" moment.
Im downloading it right now. Didnt wanted to do it, but they gave me the link goddamit! What was i supposed to do, not download it?
I hope all of you people will BUY BUY BUY (buy three!) this album when it comes out.
there will be (a) senile animal for every child of mine
*raises founds*
there's no way i'm not going to buy it.
plus i am buying a ticket AND encouraging many people to see the show.
and i'm sure i'll buy whatever garbage they put in front of me at the merch table as well

good, cause this is what makes those MELVINS wheels go around.
Well, for those who have heard it, initial thoughts???
Initial thoughts? It sucks.
Okay its not bad, but I expected total ROCK/HEAVY MADNESS with incredible vocal harmonies but its just..., ROCK. I dont know... it doesnt ROCK that hard, and there coudlve been at least more (MORE MORE MORE!) of those great harmonies (Buzzos and Jareds voice fit perfectly together).
Its like somewhere in the middle, it kinda lacks ..... (the) Melvinsity. And there are few moments that you can recognize that there are two drumbers.
Its like "regular melvins rock". In the vein of Set Me Straight (weakest song on Houdini), Goin Blind, and Safty Third (that song frm the Lustmord alb)
This is just my first thought, im gonna keep listening to it... hopefully it'll grow (it WILL grow... its the goddamn SNIVLEM!)

fucking blasphemy. I thought you were a melvins fan santa. you don't get it yet.
its one thing to say it didn't meet your expectations but you're just starting to trash the whole effort. this concerns me.
see blag jesus' senile animal reviews thread for my comment
you've got to be kidding santa.
the melvins shouldn't be mad at me that i checked out this album a little early.
not only am i going to buy the album, i'm going to buy 3 tickets to different shows
buy most of their t-shirts, posters and other merchandise.
i'm in total TOTAL support of the BB guys in Melvins.
I now know how Kurt Cobain felt with getting his head blown off because of this album.
buy this album, it will happen to you.
Well I for one am surprised by the initial reactions of this album. I am sure it will grow on you.

is that directed towards me?
someone should change the topic name to out NOW!
No. It's directed to those in general that have "somehow" wink wink listened to the album and were perhaps underwhelmed at first.
ok, because i was saying that i was totally blown away by the album...i'm not one of those who weren't at first.
Someone please PM me so I can participate.....

I have something on soulseek here, Pelican666 is sharing it.

so, y'all... where's the leak?
You my friend seem to be an unlikely candidate for said leak. I myself still haven't seen its existents.
Glen. I still haven't heard it yet :lol: Im waiting for either an a: official sample, b. to buy it at the show 9/9, or c. buy it 10/10. I like waiting. When I do hear it, I'll mark it *official thoughts of blacksanta* Fake negative reviews are my way of keeping my anticipation down.
That said, this album is almost as good as Coverdale/Page, but in a more funky way.
well done santy.
thought I was gonna have to punk you for a second there. :lol:
as far as this "supposed" leak.... sheathforever, heres my advice: October 10

oh, i see. i didn't realize that i have to have actually mouthed off a certain number of times on this forum to be a "candidate" for a leak. next time i get really excited about a new album by one of my favorite bands and want to hear it before the moment when we all know i will buy it, and then see a bunch of "cool" online mouth-talkers, opinionologists, fart-noise typographers talking about leaks of it, i'll know to go back in time, waste everyone's time waxing philosophical (read: annoying) about this or that weighty issue concerning this or that album's colour scheme and generally being a fucking waste of flesh-- self-absorbed, loquacious, unbowed in my fervour to document online (since no one in the harsh environment outside my parents' basement will stand my ramblings but i DO matter and so do my dumbshit halfcocked opinions) my every waking miserable thought on the melvins, proving once and for all that i am a veritable fan, court/forum stenographer please read back the notes where i berated someone for thinking song X was the best second-longest-track-on-a-melvins-album-post-lorax-but-pre-deutrom, when in fact as i demonstrated via caustic witticism with a dash of panache and a jigger of emoticons that it was song Y; yes, that proves it, i've been here (and heard) all along, hellbent on filling up this forum the most with my own uniquely useless verbosity. next time. i learned my lesson, that's what i'll do. sorry, i just didn't know that before, thanks for filling in such a human-retard as myself. i now have the facts.

Nice, but a word or two i don't understand didn't help with the flow.
Well, from what I understand it's not the number of posts or lack of them. It's just by going by your post number you appear to be a newbie and you are now or have been going through an initiation. All these chaps are lovable. But you still cannot have a leak because there is none. That would be illegal. You don't want do anything illegal do you? Ipecac would shut this site down similar to what happened to the Mr Bungle site when the Peeping Tom proper album was being leaked. And if that happened, I would be enraged, and you do not want to make Joe Deutrom II enraged.

My batman comment. Seems to have gone again.
I don't like this. I'm being censored1111111111111
not me!
The saddest thing is that this guy actually thinks what he does is right.
Oh well, this post will be deleted as well anyway.
oi, something's up. My last comment in this thread disapeared too.
Oh well, it was kind of stupid anyway.
i'm not sure what's been going on. i haven't been reading this thread all night.
but i must say that i trust the judgement of my fellow moderators, and while i don't necessarily agree with everything they do, i will support them in it because i know they do it for the right reasons, and maybe i am incorrect in not doing what they do.
posts aren't deleted around here very often. i'm sure there is a LOT less "moderation" in this forum than in many others around the world. luckily we are not a bunch of power-hungry and lacking nerdy types that attempt to feel important by censoring people. you can ben sure that if a post is deleted, it is because it is suspected that someone will be more offended than usual, or at times there is a direct complaint.
again, i have no idea what happened in this thread, but i have to assume it was for the best. these things never hurt anyone too much, it'll be old news soon.
(sooner if i stop yakking about it)
Problem is solved all is good.
In this matter I think it was good that the mods/mod took action. Things tend to get out of control, and when you start to discuss
other forumists actions and beings in a negative way, you`re out of line.
The most geeky thing ever, must be these pathetic cyber-quarrels. :lol: (but you can`t avoid to react when you get annoyed, even in this surrealistic environment. Oooops, time go leave work! Home sweet home!)
thanks for your attention brother V.

hello, my name is glen and I have been a victim of censorship. :shock:
the moderatorship is a panel, is it not? might I request that a moderator not make a decision on censoring or not censoring a certain post without first consulting other moderators?
this is not the place for me to go on a rant about my, or anyone else's individual case. THAT would be totally out of line AND in poor taste.
but the fact is I have noticed a recent rash of..... police brutality, for lack of a better term.
consistancy and democracy would be a welcome development.
I'm Jaq Cousteau :lol:
*casts a suspicious glance*
Now that I heard the new album, I cant wait for the new Melvins album! :)
Since the thing with BB wont last forever, they should conciliate with Joe (their "relationship" is rubbish anyway) and get him as a bass player.
yea.
when's the new album coming out!??!!?
