I think it was here:

"Baby, Won't You Weird Me Out" begins as a familiar Melvins sludge-whisper, but then evolves into a jam session, where Crover's guitar and Dunn's bass play off each other

apparently no local record stores had this today, so i'll have to get a copy when they come through town. had an itunes credit to buy it in the meantime cause i can't bring myself to download ripped melvins even temporarily.

so killer! listening now. couple tracks to go still, but it's got almost everything...

very impressive

I just walked into the music store today, not realizing it was THE DAY.  Luckily they had loads of copies prominently displayed.
What kind of Melvins fan am I to not know Freak Puke's release date?

An ill informed one? A forgetful one?

[deatheats]

Forgetful?...hmmm....nothing to do with the marijuana consumption I assure you.

Listening to this right now, about halfway through and I gotta say it's pretty awesome.  Pleasantly surprised by the range in vocal styles!

Other than the recent (last 5 yrs.) AmRep vinyl releases; every Melvins 12"/10"/7"/Boxset/CD/VHS/DVD I've bought since 1987 has been purchaced at the same inde record shop ...

This one will be no different

I suspect I'll drive over on my lunch break tommorrow. So as to be ready to crank it on the deck after work as I bbq some huge ass sirloin burgers.

make friends w/your local record store owner,youll get everything a week before it hits the streets.

Indeed, 30 or so yrs. shopping the same shop has it's perks ... they usually have things in about a week early ... and then so do I! Though they slept on this "Freak Pube". So, Tuesday it'll have to be.

Back in the 90's when me and my buddies were dropping every last cent we had there (i'd say I spent $50-100 in there every week or so for about a decade) they used to just lend us the used cds we couldn't afford so we could burn them ... cool cats!

where in town do you go? rotate and soundscapes have been pretty lax on getting things in on time...

Encore Records in Kitchener (born an raised there, though I'm about a half hour outside town these days).

In Toronto it'd be Rotate (Soundscapes is too expensive), Hits or Misses and though I haven't been in a couple years Peguin Music. Is Record Peddler still around ... that was my fave place in the late 80's (when they used to be across from the Gardens).

ahhh, i thought you were toronto based, sorry about that. i'll try all those places, but i don't have too much hope. record peddler closed shop around 10 years ago actually. it was the best place for me to go to in my teens, even though the guys working there were typical record store snobs. hits or misses is a great store, but way too expensive and kind of slow to get things that are non vinyl. we shall see what awaits me when i venture out....

Was it that fire on Queen that gutted Suspect Video etc. that put the final nail in the Peddler's coffin?

I picked up the CD today. I love all the cool insects in the album booklet. Has anyone been able to deciper that long message in cursive written above the insects?
