They should hide all lyrics from Steven. Keep that dude off the mic at all cost haha. To me, He butchered a history of bad men at the NC show.

I have some extras I'd be willing to trade for some of the new stuff. I have a really cool bride screamed murder mackie sleeve from the last tour limited to 24. Glow in the dark haze electroretard, mackie sleeve bullhead and ozma from a couple of years ago. Any of this plus some cash for any new stuff at the merch table.

I need a damn merch buddy on the west coast. If anyone is willing to grab some records I would be willing to pay handsomely or possibly trade for other rare mackie stuff.  Either way, we need merch table pics from tonight's show.

Ok, so now I just got notification that "the last items in your order are on the way".  I opened the tracking and it was the dreaded "shipping label has been created".  This has been confusing.....

My order did the same thing. The tracking went from "label has been created" to "delivered". Once it went to label created it was only a couple of days and it showed up.  I don't know if they just aren't scanning them or what but don't trust the tracking. I had two separate orders and they both did that.

There are supposed to be some Mackie cover records for sale, anyone know which ones, pics?

Check popsike.com   You can actually search sold listings. You'll be able to see what people are actually paying for the stuff.

Well ... i signed up! I like the idea of news but i hope we don't get spammed too much or email addresses sold off to third parties or whatever it is that those types of folk do with them.

We don't plan to send out a ton of emails, and we will never sell our contact list to anyone. This list is administered directly from the Melvins camp, not a PR or merch company. This is the horse's mouth.

Keep an eye on your inbox - in the near future we plan to announce a piece of very limited merch only via the email list.

What's the email address so I can add it to my contacts, that way it won't go to my spam folder. Did anyone else get like a confirmation email after signing up, because I didn't.

At least it's not another cover album.  I also hate when bands say "special announcement coming" what good does that do? Just announce the damn thing 😅

Perhaps the limited AmRep stuff hasn't been selling as well lately this is one way to give it a big push, instead of simultaneous release with the Ipecac mainstream release, give the market the AmRep stuff first for the diehards and those curious and then down the track pump the mainstream release out into the public.

I'd love to hear (although suspect we won't) why it was done this way this time around. I doubt it was due to the limited releases selling poorly though. As we have seen, they all seem to go easily within a few hours every single time. I don't expect that to change any time soon. If at all.

600 copies of bad mood rising gone in a couple of mins I bet

Is that how many they had available? I didn't read how many there were but i've always been curious to know how many they sell. With these things always being sold out so quickly, it makes me wonder why they don't make more. I doubt it would be much of a gamble to add another 50 or possibly a few hundred extra maybe.

Each one was 200 copies I believe. They lasted longer than I thought they would to be honest. About 45 mins. Which these were a little higher than normal, maybe bc of the other artist being involved.

Obviously they want to let the Haze versions get some attention first and not bombard everyone with everything at once. Yet i wonder why they are being so coy about Mackie's art and the release date. Both of which we already have seen anyway.

Not selling as well???  Let's see how long it takes for the drop today to sell out. There are people still bitching from missing out last week. With the exception of some amrep factory versions and the king Dunn 10", it all sells out in mins.  600 copies of bad mood rising gone in a couple of mins I bet, at $70 a pop at that. (minus whatever they hold back and possibly keep for tour)  I wish it wasn't that way, I would have a lot less anxiety on sundays if it weren't true 😂

Looks like it might be coming out early September! Dylan Carlson on the first track.

A better cover art from Haze than i expected too! Although i would still have liked to have seen what Mackie would have offered up.

That looks like Mackie artwork to me.

Anyone here interested in the Melvin's Christmas sweater with Melvin's beanie and ornament? I bought the Christmas bundle for the records. I already had the sweater and ornament. Sweater never taken out of the plastic bag size medium. Beanie never worn and ornament still in the box. All like new condition. The sweater alone was around $90 the year prior to the bundle if I remember correct.  I'd take $140 PayPal shipped. It's too hot to wear right now but Christmas is coming! 😅

Do these shirts have the tag or print on the sleeve? Or were those just the Melvins clown shirts?

Melvins/Dumb Numbers EP, "Broken Pipe" now available in two vinyl variants and digital from Joyful Noise VIP.

did U scoop 1 up?? I had to refresh my vip membership kinda forgot I'd canceled it..

I have the vip and still can't find it. I hate this fuckin website. It's like a maze to find anything. Haha where the fuck is it??

does anyone know which pedal Steven is using during this tour? sounds as a Flanger or Phaser. I think it sounds not so good 

check it's shoved

Sounds like a fuckin DOD flanger or some bullshit. All I know is he used it on Amazon when I saw them years ago and ruined the song for me live that night. He used it on a bunch of stuff and it was just unnecessary. You've got this super heavy song and then you got Steven over there acting like a goofball with this horrible flanger effect on the bass that was so loud it made the song comical. I really like his playing on a walk with love and death but I despise his vocals and his dod flanger effect on classic songs live. It doesn't help that I also hate redd Kross. Worst opening band I've seen for the Melvins.
