I'm with PepsiMike on this one.

of course the moment i posted that i remembered my other thought.
clutch used to have their website as www.pro-rock.com
I always thought they were one of the only bands that really could say that and properly deserve the title.
I think our boys have got them beat and maybe deserve the title more.

Tarantula Heart - Melvins Deliver Again

After two listens my thoughts are coming clearer and the album is great, big, and lovely. I'm not sure what I was slightly trepidatious about before anymore. You've just got to trust them because this feels to me like yet another important interesting release. Most of these points are not new here round these parts. The songs are good, adventurous and new sounding. I felt like I did when I heard Hostile Ambient Takeover for the first time with its new sounds way back when that came out. Like we are definitely for sure treading awesome new ground here. I'm loving the format of absolutely epic first half length songs followed by more badassery on the b-side. The packaging and artwork is also deluxe and/or beefed up from current normal releases and again as it's been said it works so well. All the images and the booklet almost like a panegyric of the little girl. This goes for the lp and the cd (the cd has i think one image that the vinyl doesn't.) And you really have to give it to Buzz I guess for crafting all these EPs and LPs. He really has a knack for it because these songs flow man, perfectly. Plenty of rocking variety. I can't wait to listen to it again.

extra thoughts - i also liked my "Silver" vinyl its really bright and like white silver, i like it!
              - i've liked most of their output generally over the years
              - i listened to it once on vinyl, once on cd, and heard most of it on the bandcamp listening party as well
              - had another thought but my kid interrupted me and i still haven't remembered what it was

i like that soundgarden song bones of birds

far out

lol!
i just got excited to hear so many

i just remember in that vinyl guide podcast interview they talk about there being like 8 solos on that one song, 4 from buzz and 4 from gary, guess that may have been a joke maybe?

thanks for the insight. how are the guitar solos on the first long song?

i think i might give that a try

variety and something different is nothing to scoff at though.

agreed. after revisiting it, the riff thing that makes up the song is almost like in the background. and someone else said about it not changing at all and i thing that's a dig i agree with because it just repeats and repeats for dang near 5 minutes before fading out. I'm sure i could not make it and i know buzz worked hard on it and it wasn't easy but certainly not my favorite song.

either one, i like them both.

I didn't love the new song on first listen but hey i was at work and didn't even finish it. i will give it another go most definitely. Also I like Opeth, saw them open for Mastodon a couple of years ago, slowly getting in to their discography. Man the new song I can't quit is that new one from High on Fire, cool video too.

wore the goat hoodie to church to see my daughter sing in the choir. i don't think it was appreciated. 

Praise Jeebus!
