I don't see why some of you just don't listen to it already.
it's been officially offered up as far as I'm concerned, the quality isn't noticebly bad as far as streaming goes either.... I just don't get it 
are you guys mentally ill?
I don't get it either. But this phenomenon is not just relegated to Melvins fans. There are a lot of people that like to crumple and fetish the artwork and read liner notes/lyrics during the first listen to an album. This kind of fandom is something I totally get, being the kind of guy who always listens to full albums, and not one to put his ipod on shuffle. But when it is right there, to listen to, guilt free; it doesn't make much sense to me.
Nah for me it's the fact that I have shitty speakers on my computer, I
could play it off of the internet through my PS3 and play it through the A/V system, but it still isn't my stereo, so I wanna wait for something I can play through that. I'm gonna buy it anyway, so want to listen to it first time through a decent system, afterwards a shit will not be given how I hear it, 2 tin cans and a bit of string or through a virgin otter's cloaca...
