The best solo EP

[mopafeena]

Thought we needed a poll. It's probally already been done but..........

[norecess]

I have voted Buzz's because of Annum.

[Shatz]

I'd go for Dale Crover. Best drawings (the one with him holding a rose just makes me smile the most) and best music, because it sounds different from the Melvins, yet very good in its own right.

[Anonymous]

I vote Joe's. Dale's is probably got stronger song structures, and all that stuff... But, Joe's has some real groove.

[fearless1000]

The drums at the start of buzz's are pummelling, and I'm never one to turn down such drone and experimentation as is present on joes.

But I voted dales, its just got some damn fine tunes 

[Anonymous]

The chorus of Annum... I keep getting the feeling someone has totally ripped that tune off...

Like I've heard it in another song... But I can't put my finger on it...

It's right there... But I can't think...

Has anybody gotten the same weird feeling?... Or is it just me?...

[Andy]

I voted Dale, but to be honest I don't think any of them are any good. Best of a bad bunch.

[norecess]

I voted Dale, but to be honest I don't think any of them are any good. Best of a bad bunch.

You gotta a point there. It seems Dale and Buzz just need each other, which is positive. Would they ever seperate? I bet they won't. Buzz would die without Dale and vice versa.

That may not be the truth, but it's my truth, and I love it!

[glen]

that is indeed a tough question.  I really like dale's on a "good song" level.  but Buzz's just fucking ROCKS like no tomorrow.
Joe's has to appreciated on a different level.

I will put them in a group similar to the trilogy and say (in my opinion) SUCCESS!!

I would classify as follows:  Buzz = the maggot
                                     Dale = the bootlicker
                                     Joe = the crybaby

wow,  that just came to me and I feel I made a pretty profound comparison.  or is it just me?

[Rex Irae]

There is one song on each of them that I like a lot,

Buzz: Annum
Dale: Dead Wipe
Joe: Bricklebrit

But between all of those I voted for Joes.

[youllneverbe]

Still need to get Dale and Joe's

[klump]

I think all three together would make a good album.
but that wasnt what they wanted.
and I dont think you would get so different songs if they had recorded together.

[mopafeena]

I actually forgot to say who i voted for.

It was Dale's. The other two are good but i voted for dale simply because i like his the best. That's the only reason...... obviously

[Guts]

I went with Dale's. I would have voted for Buzz's but it's got Porg.

Here is how I have dealt with this often confusing connundrum of which solo EP to throw on:

I made a mix CD and here how I have it ordered. It actually sounds pretty cool - almost like how Stag may have sounded had it come out around this time.

1. Hex Me
2. Dead Wipe
3. Isabella
4. Bricklebrit
5. Annum
6. Hands First Flower
7. Respite
8. Hurter
9. Porg
10. Skeeter
