I just found what looks like a recent interview with Buzzo on the deciblog.

13 Questions for King Buzzo

Melvins mainman Buzz Osbourne recently gave Decibel carte blanche to ask him any question on our minds
(no matter how ridiculously stupid), so we polled posters on the Decibel message board and added a few of our own interview topics. In honor of Independence Day, the true American hero shares his responses:


What were your favorite albums in high school?

In 1978, I was in 8th grade and I was already into the Sex Pistols, The Ramones and a bunch of other English punk bands. I got into these bands through Creem Magazine. Before that I was into The Who (still a big fan), Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Led Zep, Jimi Hendrix, Cream, The Doors, David Bowie, Kiss, Black Sabbath etc

Great interview! And again with The Who reference! First time he explains how he got into which bands to my memory. I can't wait for that Big Band dvd, mainly for the commentary. I'm also hoping for a live collaboration with Lustmord at ATP! Ozma as one of his least favorite records? Do you guys think that's for sound/recording reasons? That Jackass guy must've been Danger Aaron.

I can understand how annoying all the stupid hair questions must be. It still seems to be one of the Melvins
biggest sensations for many interviewers.

I don't know but that would be the only proper reason for me...

And why Danger Aaron?

All the more reason for them to remaster it and put together a cool package. I wonder if he is aware how much his fans love Ozma?

He's a Melvins fan.  I've seen him wearing the 20th anniversary shirt a few times and saw him at the Wonder Ballroom last year at the show in Portland.

Great interview.

He probably is tired of Houdini because of playing the material, in it's entirety, so often.

The Crybaby was probably very exciting to record but maybe he isn't happy with the results? I like it.

Ozma?

He's said it elsewhere that playing Ozma was like doing math problems,
with all the changes and stop/starts he had to remember (loosely quoted)

believe Buzz's problem with that album has always been about the recording quality(or because Mark D was the producer? :)).

All the more reason to remaster it. It may help with whatever Buzz's problem with it is.
