I'm sure I'm not the first on here to discover this but, I was looking through the notes of my copy of Beck's "Mellow Gold" today and look at what I saw:

"Beercan" contains sampling from "Hogleg" by The Melvins.  Courtesy of The Melvins and Boner Records.

So I listen to both songs and compare, sure enough, Beck uses the opening feedback screech about 2:30 into "Beercan."

Learn something new everyday, I guess.

Everything was beautiful, and nothing hurt.

Centripetal core of soul sojourn the field vibrates to absolution. I climb toward the sun to breathe the universal.

Have you seen the bridge?  I ain't seen the bridge!  Where's that confounded bridge?!

Yup.  "Bad Reputation" is in Rock Band 2 and I love rockin' the drums for that song.

I was also listening to "Flashback" yesterday, I really like the version of "Cherry Bomb" she does live with L7.

Yeah, its been a while, but I've been busy (heck, I haven't even updated my crappy little comic in half a year!).

Not too busy to buy "Nude With Boots" though!  My review:  Its good!

A few years ago, someone in here with a good ear said Mellow Gold also included a drum sample from one of the songs on Bullhead. Sure enough, it was true. I don't think it was Beercan, but I can't remember.
the song "loser" is a rip off of "greyhound" by jon spencer.

It sounds like a Melvins sample in Soul-Suckin' Jerk also, theres this part with some real heavy drumming that sounds every bit like Dale's
