Put it this way, First thing I ever knew by the sweaty Melvins was Mombius vid, Then soon after MY brain was being swept up in an ocean of sludge by The A side of Lysol, I was Like NO WAY?

YOU CAN MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS??!?!??!!???

I was like, man, why aren't more bands doing something this way?


That was on Replay for a whole summer back to back. need I say more?

Well...I know its not charmacarmacat.  I had my brother in a car ride with me to see the Best Worst Movie premiere, about a 40 min car ride.  Had eggnog going but driving on the freeway drowned out the low volume of the music.  When we get off the freeway suddenly charmacharamcat is in listening range and my bro gives me this "what the hell is this?" look.  He hated it and I lowered the volume a little.  Maybe starting off with some houdini or stoner witch would have been an eaiser introduction.
Is Ian back yet??

For the ________ fan, ________:

Sabbath- Lysol/Bullhead
Metallica- Honey bucket/revolve/asa
Black flag/punk- mangled demos/ozma/eggnog
Zeppelin/70's rock- nude w/ boots/bootlicker
Industrial-pigs/cod
Garage/60's rock-houdini(?)/eggnog(?)
Math rock-ozma

Honey Bucket seems to be the best for the all around metal fan, imo.

That's my take...

My cousin posted the melvins interview and performance from the TV show sound fx from 1995 on his Facebook page.  And he said he watched the whole hellfest show.  He's hooked.  :twisted:

He seemed to like them in interviews at first more than the music.  Like the charm of their personalities made their music more palatable, maybe?  He's really diggin them now.  He's an Unsane fan so it was probably a natural progression.

I gave up on people. I just..gave....up..

I discovered the melvins on my own, let other people do the same.

Nope.  Just barely a 70's baby.  Somehow I just haven't lost hope in all of humanity.

I don't know how you do it.

the time I spent getting people into it was never worth it.

I used to burn people millions of CD's, theres at least 50 copies of the Bootlicker floating around among dozens of others...

Now I'll usually bring something by a friend's place, and "forget" to take it with me.

Last time I did that was with Shrinebuilder, and He never offered to give it back yet.

works like a charm.
