Ive thought about this before but today I decided to go through all the Melvins albums and see just how many Melvins song/album titles dealt with animals. At first I thought it was mostly farm animals but I realized there is a lot of other animals involved too. Does anybody have any insight as to why this could be? I'm sure it's just a coincidence. I know buzz pulls from lots of things for his titles. Just thought it was an interesting thing to point out, sorry if it's been mentioned before. Either way here's my list. If I missed anything feel free to add to it.
