COMPANION RECORD TO COLOSSUS OF DESTINY- FOR SIMULTANEOUS PLAYING

No, let's wait until the Melvins + Boris album where two separate vinyls must be played at the same time as two 8-tracks and four cassettes.

I know the Flaming lips Zareeka is a lot like this but there's this electronic fella that goes by "The Electric Company" and he put out two records that are supposed to be played simultaneously and goddamn it's awesome. I used to have a dj mixer a long time ago that had four inputs on it and I would always throw on to different records and play them together because a lot of the time it worked well. Two of my favorites to play together was Squarepushers "Go Plastic" and pretty much any Merzbow. That shit sounded really cool.
I would be totally down with a COD companion to be played together!

Maybe it's something with jack white. I'm only throwing that out there because of the re-releases and because of his superstar status they might not be able to talk about it due to his managers and contracts and blah blah blah. I don't know how I'd feel about that match up. It wouldn't excite me as much as a Kevin reunion but it may be interesting.
I guess the only other people in the Melvins circle of friends along those lines (superstar) would be krist noveselic (which lets just hope it would be better than "maybe I am amused") and maybe Adam jones! Maybe he's tired of waiting around for the tool album and decided to jam with the Melvins.

No, it's like this. They're gonna re-record ZZ Top's First Album w/ Billy Gibbons.

Shortly after that, they're gonna record an album's worth of early Van Halen covers with Dweezil Zappa.

I dig the way you think Chief

I was driving listening to the radio today (??!!) and VH's "Cradle Will Rock" came on ... as it was ending the DJ just started yelling ENCORE! ENCORE!! over the outro ... and then they played it again ... that made me laugh, made me smile, and made my day!

[))))((((]

superstar status

Yes, i wondered whether it was someone "high profile" too. There doesn't appear to be many realistic candidates but then who has a clue who the band may know or cross paths with. I'd like Steven to get his own album with the band and as good as Melvins + Krist sounds, i don't think i would be as eager to see that now as i would have been 20 years ago. I wouldn't want to see Jack White either. If it is a new bassist whom feasibly COULD be included i'd like to see Shane Embury be involved. The recent Melvins/Napalm Death shows have convinced me it would make for a great collaboration. Perhaps something heavy again too!

Yes, PLEASE!

Jack White?! 

Come on now! 

Go to your nearest calendar and tell me how close it is to April first. 

[))))((((]

I know! As much as i love The White Stripes, i think Jack White being associated with Melvins to the point of being IN the band would be terrible!

I think he's a great musician, songwriter, business man.... but as a fit with the Melvins?
If they were gonna go the garage rock/ blues rock route, wouldn't someone like Shawn Walker of Gay Witch Abortion/ The Hand work better with their style?

I feel that exact same way.  Love the stripes too but I just don't see that working/sounding good. 

Meg White as 2nd drummer???

i wouldnt mind collaborating with meg.

I wonder what Meg looks like now. She hasn't been in the public eye for 5 years and im curious.

Yes, PLEASE!

Would be amazing.

The Warhead cover with Scott Kelly had me wishing for further collaboration with any of the Neurosis fellas.  Maybe they could get Buzz and Dale on a future Tribes Of Neurot recording...

This.
Speaking of Tribes of Neurot, I think and album with Scott Ayers would be exceptional.

[))))((((]

Are they still active? Haven't heard anything from that for a while - Neurosis seem to be the central vehicle. Which i prefer anyway.
