Anyone know? While Buzz had Lori Black in the band? Also, any quotes by Shirley Temple on the Melvins in any interviews? I wonder if she even was aware of their music. I don't think I could see her going to a show, would seem too bizarre...

Huey P. Newton

I thought Shirley was going to take away Lori's inheritance if she didn't quit the band and get off smack.  :?: It was in the National Enquirer or some shit. I think someone on this board has the article.

i heard she was a big fan and got lori into the band.

I knew I read it somewhere; took me awhile to find it but here it is:

Interview with Buzz:
Do you have any funny stories about Gene Simmons or Shirley Temple?

Shirley Temple was possibly one of the most hard-core people I've ever been around. She's a tough broad. I wouldn't want to fight her, that's for sure.

To be afraid when you are alone, in the dark, faced with the unknown, the unspeakable; that is understandable fear. To be afraid, mortally afraid, in broad daylight, in a crowded city street, that is to know Melvins.

There is an interesting quote from the interview, about "Pigs":

QuoteWas it designed to go along with a film?

We took a movie that we really liked, and then we shut the sound off and made a new soundtrack for it. We redid it to our liking. The trick is now people have to go out and figure out what movie it is. But we're not gonna tell anybody. It fits in perfect. Pigs of the Roman Empire...I just like saying it. The Romans had a good run. I don't view them in the dim light that a lot of people do. They basically created society as we know it. People who think the Romans were bad should check out what the rest of the world was doing at the height of the Empire. Check out the Germanic tribes at that point -- loppin' off people's heads. They certainly weren't creating a senate or anything like that. The Romans were civilized compared to the rest of the world.

:?  So what's the movie??

Amen, brother Hill. I agree.
It's all fucking good-dini as far as I'm concerned. Then again, I'd eat a MELVINS deep fried turd. GO MELVINS!!

Quote from: deejuks2It was probably Follow That Bird

Great flick.  Some of Big's best work.  Saw it in the theaters.

klump

what movie could it be??? an hour long? hmm or maybe they just selected a section of a movie.

i think the movie probably is 2001 , a space odysse... or another kubrick movie.

I suspect Buzz is just fuckin' with our heads with this whole movie soundtrack thing, and yet I can't resist guessing what movie he could be talking about.  If he's serious, I'm sure Pigs doesn't sync up perfectly with any movie. Perhaps a certain film was just very inspirational for Pigs.

So, what kinda movies would the Melvins really dig? Blade Runner? The Wicker Man?  Various David Cronenberg movies? Exorcist Part 3? Last House On the Left (maybe the title track would work well with the whole kidnapping rape sequence). Over the Edge? the original Dawn of the Dead? Escape from New York?

Hank Hill

Maybe he's talking about that Cameron Jamie film.

wasn't the track list for those collaborations -

1) Lysol
2) Pigs of the Roman Empire
3) (can't remember shit)

? ? ?

is everyone forgetting that they played POTRE to one of
Jamie Cameron's films? Could that perhaps be the film?
