The Mindset That The Melvins Did A Lot Of Great Stuff Before 1993,

[Satchel Paige]

In fact, if pressed, it would be hard to think of two records they've done that sound the most similar...maybe Bride Screamed Murder and Nude with Boots?

Good point.

I know Buzz has said they don't have any sister bands, but I've always felt like the albums have sisters. Not identical, same genes, but with different attitudes

Dude pre 93 sounds like the garbage me and my old band would just improvize on
and don't hide it homeless dad those songs are crap!
I'd say '94 afterword is the best melvins
golden era is 96-99

I've nothing to hide.
I couldn't disagree with you more, dude.

Sorry, Satchel.  You're way on your own.

seems like your sarcasmic mechanism is broken...wah wah wah

Zing!

Professor Frink should have it up and running with the lights and the buzzers and the MOYVEN GLAVEN!!

Looks like dc's bukaki avatar bites the dust! 
Back to the topic. Your thoughts, metalhead. Uh cow. Sir?

Coady has retroactively ruined the band.

[anaconda]

how so? are you implying if it was just Dale, Buzz and Jared as a trio it would have been
superior????? I consider (A) Senile Animal as perfection of the four piece era of the Melv's

Gluey Porch Treatments and Bullhead are two of my favorite albums, certainly. The Bride Screamed Murder, Tres Cabrones, and This Machine Kills Artists are modern favorites of mine. I don't think the band had a peak, and I don't think any particular time period stands out as the best period for the band. I think they've consistently put out great material since their formation, and it's been really fun to watch the band's musical evolution. That being said I'll probably always consider these three albums to be my favorites:

-Stoner Witch
-Stag
-Hostile Ambient Takeover


Bummed I missed DC's new avatar.

I bought a Walsby drawing last year of Coady as a dinosaur, causing havok and holding Buzz in his grip. The caption says, "Coady Wilis-He ruined the Melvins!"  I mentioned that drawing to Walsby last month, and he talked about how that drawing was inspired by people complaining about Coady online.

i remember that one, he was Coadzilla!!

[meezer]

I would have bought that one, if I wasn't so broke.

The best of the best in my opinion is GPT, Ozma, Stag, HAT, and The Bootlicker.

Ozma, Bullhead and Eggnog rule!!!!!!

Can't argue that one.
