Oh cool thanks for including us lot in this. Believe it or not i've watched a few of your youtube vids previously. You talk well about vinyl and being a big Sleep fan i appreciated the Matt Pike Roadburn interview.

As for Melvins i actually can't think of anything to ask beyond what was their first albums they owned or listened to often as a youngster. I don't wish to cause a ruckus but i know Buzz thinks CD is better than vinyl. Think he said he sold all his records way back and "upgraded" as he put it, to CD's.


Anyway good luck tonight and link us when the interview is up or something.

I'm glad you like the previous Vinyl Junkies vids, thanks for the kudos.  You've already given me my first question in mentioning the "upgrading to cd" thing, I'll try and stretch that out a bit.  Actually, if you're free, I'd love to maybe have a SKYPE convo with a Melvins fanatic, try and flesh the interview out properly.  I like a ridiculous amount of music so I'm quite sure that there's some Melvins fans on this site that are far more knowledgable on the band than I am.  Contact me if that's cool, thanks.  Oh, and btw, do yourself a favor and check out pt. 2 of the Roadburn interview I did with Mike Scheidt of YOB.  It's really good stuff, very engaging.  Here's a link

ask them if there will definitely be a vinyl version for their "Freak Puke" album and "Bulls & Bees" ep. any details on that is appreciated.
also interesting would be if they plan any vinyl reissues in particular from the boner area? and if so; do they have plans to make those reissues "diy" in the style of the recent letterpress CD reissues.

also any info on the upcoming Melvins 1983 10" and possible other new vinyl would be cool.

thank you!

check out pt. 2 of the Roadburn interview I did with Mike Scheidt of YOB.  It's really good stuff, very engaging.

Yeah Mike seems a pretty cool, open guy.

As for Melvins i don't think i would class myself as a fanatic but there are many on here that get closer to that level. Im sure you'll get a few questions thrown your way. Im not into the whole Skype thing (plus im at work right now)  but if you do wish to discuss a detail here or there or have a query shoot me a pm and i'll do my best.

chances for a proper vinyl release of "electroretard", "alive at the fucker club", "colossus of destiny"? 

[VinylJunkies666]

The Mike Scheidt interview was just a blast to do, he's a super humble guy and I wish that EVERYONE would go out and buy a YOB release.  They're brilliant, the world should know.

Hi there Vinyl Junkies666,

I would genuinely appreciate it if you can find the time in your interview to ask Buzz and Dale about a potential re-release of Honky on Vinyl Or CD. 

Cheers,
Hort

[VinylJunkies666]

The rerelease sked varies depending on the label.  But yeah, I'll see if I can get some news on that.  Thanks for the question, keep em' coming.  I'll fit in the best ones of the lot and let them know that it's YOU, the fans, that asked them.  Meanwhile, come join the Vinyl Junkies FB page if you dig music on vinyl.  www.facebook.com/vinyljunkies666

Was there any reason they decided to make Nude With Boots a standard vinyl release instead of an ultra-limited edition release?

Also, if cd's get brought up, how come some releases have the cover on the back but some have the cover on the front?  I know Buzz said that there's more room on the back and it looks better, and I agree, but I would think that rule would apply to all of their albums.

Buzz and Dale said cd's sound better than vinyls. why?

[Rusty Shackleford]

Buzz and Dale said cd's sound better than vinyls. why?

He has mentioned the extended bandwidth of cds.  More high and low frequency information. 

[kdools]

Affordable vinyl represses of the older stuff would be nice.  I know the letterpress stuff is cool, but I'd like a standard repress that would only cost me ~$20

[VinylJunkies666]

So the interview is done, 28 minutes of rough footage.  They answered almost none of my questions and I think I wind up looking like a fool in it lol.  But it's probably a good Melvins interview nonetheless, the stock answer to most questions was "We don't care".  Looking forward to showing it to all of you and hearing your feedback, the link will be posted here:
