Hold It In

[LuckMach3]

I listened to fm radio on the way home from work tonight.
Do people not realize how horrible non-Melvins music has gotten lately?

Ohhhh I have.  My brother will still listen to the local rock station from time to time.  What's weird is that they mostly play the same garbage that was popular in the late 90's and early 2000's like Incubus, Godsmack, Disturbed, etc but in the rare occasion they play a new song it's REALLY bad!  It makes me wish they'd put Incubus back on!

People are entitled to their opinion but it's weird to me when something that's as inspired as "The Bunk Up" is mostly met with, "Meh, 6 out of 10.  Bullhead and/or Houdini was better." It's just a boring, unsatisfying opinion.

Dear Melvins,
    I swear it's me, not you. I want to like you. Do you think I could get you to try on this scarf and these skinny jeans?

Same here. I wonder when I'll get it. I guess I'll call the two places that sell music here and see if they have it.


they won't.

How did they get Stephen Hawking to sing to soft on that one song?

What's the deal with the fadeout at the end of Onion? Strangest end to a Melvins song. EVER! 

one word : CRAZY

I don't think I linked this, but here's my review if anyone wanted to check it out. I've been super busy so I wrote it in about an hour after only a couple listens. But this is what I got:

That's a great and solid review, I hope you write more of them!

I love The Bunk Up. The whole album is great.
Also, I just realized it's one of the few Melvins albums with no cover songs :O

But yeah, I suppose the real amount of albums with covers got messed up in my memory
Somehow I imagined most of them had covers.
Sorry for that.

No need to apologize. I only own Ozma on the disc that has GPT on it
(and I've read so many wrong accounts of which album it's actually on).
I know B&B is an ep, but really? Lysol and Egg Nog aren't?
Seems like a distinction without a difference.
Also, both Houdini's have the same track list.
