Title: The Melvins BBS Myspace Tribute Page
Post by: Idlehanz on May 02, 2008, 11:57:26 PM
I made a muhspace page for all the songs that have been contributed to the Melvins Tribute, by the members of this board.

I'm awaiting permission from more people to post their songs, so it's pretty small right now.

Here's the link to it:  http://www.myspace.com/melvinsbbstribute

If you want to be added as a friend, you know what to do.  I want to keep it among us right now.  It's just a way to hear everyones songs without having to download them. Unless you all think otherwise.  Should I let it be public?  I  was just thinking for now, it's a good way to hear the songs that may be put on a cd.  If not, then we have a nice forum for our covers.

It's cheap and easy right now, but I'll work on it more over the weekend, as I get more songs and permission from people.


If you have a song, get me a download for it, and a "band" name you want associated with it.  Otherwise, I'll just use your bbs handle.

What I need to do now is figure out how to put up more than the four songs.  I know there is a way on a personal muhspace, but as far as bands, not so sure.  I either get something for more than 4 songs, or I change them out every few days.




Oh, and since my speakers don't work; Are the songs playing?

Upload my cover of History of Bad Men if you want.  I thought for the past 6 months or so myspace let bands upload six songs.

There is a way to upload songs and create a playlist on your myspace.  It's been awhile since I've done it so I can't remember how to do it.

I really like the contributions. Didn't hear Night Goat and Toy until now, pretty good, all of you.

I remember seas of luck should have recorded A History of Drunks with that singer they had :D

It's just a way to hear everyones songs without having to download them. Unless you all think otherwise.

im loving this idea.

do you have more than 6 tracks?
Title: Re: The Melvins BBS Myspace Tribute Page
Post by: Idlehanz on May 03, 2008, 02:35:38 PM
I think only six have been turned in so far.  If someone has something else, send it to me.

Very cool Idlehanz  ... just in the process of digesting it as I write this ... great idea, until or in lue of an actual cd. A nice tribute to all our fave from the community. A a good way to keep it continuous & growing ... So far really diggin' these versions too ... so far, I like what I'm hearin' ... not carbon copies ... cool as hell!

You can, just bypass the dinky my space player w/ your own player. I donno know if it works on a band page thou ... but on a personal page yeah ... I had over an hour of music on my page ... if ya know how to do some simple html (I'm clueless w/ computers an' I figured it just fine). It's a little work but its infinate in what ya can play ... go here I learned how to do it from this website:

http://www.boutell.com/newfaq/creating/playlist.html

Seems they now also have directions for a Flash player too ...

Again great work all around ...

well you could do like this guy did and create a few profiles, and just use the media player from the other http://www.myspace.com/noiseplayer8 

just make another tribute page, don't make it public and just use it to host another player. and also don't make the tracks start automatically.

I'm changing around the background a lot.  Trying to find something that fits nice.  Or maybe I'll just keep changing things around.  I have some ideas, but I need to reinstall my photoshop.

Hey Smellis,
  Have you ever heard of the Stinkor Brothers? They used to walk around
Montesano up until about a year ago! It was a dude and his physically-challenged
wife and he used to push her in the wheelchair unless he was pissed off and then he
would walk about ten yards in front of her...

I don't think I have ever seen the "Stinkor Brothers".  Who named them that, did they really stink, and more importantly, where did they go?? Ask me about any freaks in Aberdeen,  I know them all.   8)   :shock:

I've been getting a few requests from other people that aren't on the board to submit songs.  While I wanted to keep this for us, so we could hear each other, do you think I should post some other stuff?  It would be a few weeks down the road, but I'm just curious as to what others think.  I don't think it's a bad idea, I'd just like to showcase the members stuff first.

I don't know, that stupefied look of "What have I done?" is kind of appropriate to the Melvins in a way..

Post by: Ron Maiden on May 31, 2008, 02:17:55 PM
Here's something i put together. It's just a concept. I wouldn't consider this solid, but i guess this is the direction I would envision for the cover. I was gonna make a back side too, but thought I'd start off slow.
(http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y79/armofinfant/tributeone.jpg)
and one with a skull
(http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y79/armofinfant/tributetwo.jpg)

any thoughts?
maybe we could get these cover ideas on the profile photo albums and people could give feedback there.

Thansk MAR,

i was just thinking looking at my pic, if an octopus design worked, you could have a tentacle for each band/artist that contributed even if it was like 15. it would melvins like to have a 15 tentacled octi.

I really like that one MAR. And I also think a Jellyfish or something similar would look really cool.
I'm trying to create something but I don't think it will turn out that well.
Title: Re: The Melvins BBS Myspace Tribute Page
Post by: Komar on June 03, 2008, 03:53:29 PM
Thank You!

I also think that anything sea related would fit very well (as it did on several t shirt designs on the last tour). maybe the octopus/jellyfish would make a good front/back cover if the colors would match a little more...

This may not be perfect for a cover but I think it fits the style

(http://i246.photobucket.com/albums/gg118/bathroomcreep/ART/booklet2small.png?t=1216157326)

And a cover I put together, not that professional but it's fun to create something

Ok, so I've done a little reworking as far as the songs go.

Everything that was on the 2nd page is now on the main page.  Everything that was on the main page is now on the second page, except for two songs. 

Grim's little reaper and Bionic's cover was added to the main page.

Grim, if there is a band name to be associated with the tune, let me know.

If anybody see's a problem or I need to correct something, let me know.

well good news from the Armofinfant camp, we've just recorded the drums our contribution. I'll leave it a surprise only Idle knows which we're doing.  I'm not trying to act like you guys are waiting in suspense or anything but i know i get excited when other people finish theirs.

We're  doing a track off the atlantic years, and by "we" and "we're"-I mean "me".

something new for the tribute.

i for one would like to know more about the artist whom recorded the contributions, as far as why they chose it, how they recorded it, who played what etc...nerdy shit.

so here;s what were gonna do. if you contributed to the comp and can take the time to type a quick or long bio about your song maybe PM it to Idle or send it to the myspace profile. not page 2 but the original.

like Jaron's version of Oven for example, do Jaron play everything or does he have a band ? shit like that.

Idle will then at it as a blog or create one continuous blog containing all entries. think of it as a dvd extra or even just as a liner note.

any vocalist that want to be involved with this thread should let it be known.

im sure you would only need a good not ok but good microphone.
and a program to record it and be able to save as wave files.

and also be ready to send a sample of the direction your voice takes.

i might be looking for one right now.
