disaster on a Fantomas album?! bite your tongue sir!

But imagine Buzz & Trevor with Dale and Lombardo dueling again but this time it will be the most massive drum kit you have ever seen. Four gongs - at least. They can do a reverse LITE and call it HEAVY.

I think I just predicted the end of the world.

2012 is Year of Melvins.

You just kicked out the Big Business guys and you didn't even realize it! ... but since you are starting an imaginary variation can we get David Scott Stone back up in the mix too?

Did not! I love THE BIZ.

BigVal, the Crank II Soundtrack is the BEES KNEES. Didn't bother with the movie. I also like A Perfect Place. I listened to Mondo Cane a couple of times.... it's OK, but not what I typically like in music. You know? You know. Same with Peeping Tom. Just seems that Patton's mindset is in other places these days.

Believe me, I want a new Fantomas just as much as anyone else out there.....
WANT is keyword here. NEED belongs to Melvins Heavy.

Also, Trevor Dunn is awesome. Did I mention that? Because he is

[dead mike]

but the potential for disaster there seems high.

That's always been why I like Fantomas.

did you happen to hear the last tomahawk album?

It's my favorite from that band.

Yeah it's different but still great. I can't see why people knock that record. It was obviously a one time concept.

[(the) Razor]

I still regularly listen to Fantomas albums far more than FNM or Peeping Tom.

It will happen one day, if I were to bet on it.

Plus I love Buzzs tone on those albums, the guitar is fucking heavy - he'll have to get back on the Les Paul for that one!

True, so you are saying the regular Melvins stuff like Bulls and Bees just ain't heavy enough for ya? You want a super heavy album? Like some shit that makes "A History of Bad Men" seem like  easy listening? Trevor is the man...Mr. Bungle has always been my shit!!!

did you happen to hear the last tomahawk album?   

If you are saying it wasn't on par with the first two, then I agree. I was a little disappointed, It didn't suck but wasn't nearly as good as the others. Didn't Kevin Rutmanis leave during the recording to that album?
As far as Mondo Cane, I dig it but gotta be in the right mood. I do enjoy Peeping Tom still tho, always dug that record.

What I really  wanna know is who loves the Lovage baby!?!?!?

I've always loved Lovage! Very underrated album. Some really awesome songs on that, to me Peeping Tom was just a poorman's Lovage.

[JUDY]

I like Lovage too and full-heartedly agree with the above statement.

That's not what I'm saying at all! Big Belvins are SUPER HEAVY and I LOVE THEM TO PIECES.
I can see how I contradicted myself there because the opposite of Melvins Lite (which is still heavy, imo) is Melvins Regular, which is really Melvins Heavy. Am I making sense here? Anyway, you really can't get much heavier than the heaviest of what they've already accomplished in the past: That being Bullhead, Ozma, Eggnog and Maggot...... again, my opinion.
I HOPE Melvins stay with The Biz for a long time, and I think they will. However, they still have their own band and they promised Dale and Buzz that they'd never quit or put their own thing aside for them.  Lite was a great opportunity for both bands to do their own thing for a bit. I think the joining of Dunn has the potential to open new doors for a lot of other "guest/magickal friend collaborations"... Melvins Heavy was just wordplay I was messing around with. Melvins is always heavy just like Melvins is always gay.

But yes A SUPER HEAVY RECORD is what I want. Like Charmicarmicat/See How Pretty, See How Smart times a million.

Yeah the soundtrack is awesome so then felt duty bound to at least sit down and watch the movie. I couldn't get any further than halfway through it. Horrendous film.

Buzz's tone? Very nice.

Ha, i really hadn't thought about that possibility. Yep, Les Paul all the way. Plus i agree with you, there are simply loads of really, REALLY cool guitar riffs and tones on the Fantomas albums. Makes me wish many of them had found their way into Melvins tunes.

Melvins is always heavy just like Melvins is always gay.
