Melvins in 2018

Golf.

No way, I bet they're recording something they're not telling us about yet.
Maybe even with Big Biz? They're finishing up their tour today and aren't going anywhere until August 

[Bigval]

I would like that to be true but I think that ship might've sailed.

How long has it been since they've worked with the Big Biz guys on an album or tour?

I think the last time they were involved with the Melvins was the Aus tour in late 2013.

[))))((((]

They always record in the Winter. Im sure this is just a rest and family planned stop during the tour. Don't forget it's quite a big tour too. Perhaps they will fill some of their time printing up new letterpress merch of something.

They usually record in winter.
Sorry, but you're not their manager Ian. None of us are. We can't know this for sure.
I know you don't expect much from this band lately, but come on.
You're not even allowing for a possiblity of them being unpredictable.
And I believe unpredictable is one thing they've always been and remain still no matter what it is they're doing.

2016 - Choco Plumbing (Basses Loaded),
and some concerts in 2015.

The ship might indeed have sailed but we live in a strange world where weird things happen. I mean, one of the villains from Powerpuff Girls is now playing bass in Gorillaz.
And, the reason I'm thinking towards BB in the first place is because I think I've heard Buzz say he was cooking up something featuring Jared and Pinkus.
I think that was sometime after Hold It In, while AWWLAD and the Sylvia Massy album were still under wraps.
I might be remember it wrong....
But still - who knows?

I didn't know about those 2015 shows that's good to know as I had just assumed the Basses Loaded/Sausages stuff was just left over songs with them from past recordings.

It is a crazy world when Donald Trump is the now the US President and Dennis Rodman is considered an agent of world peace.

Sounds good to me I just really regret not seeing the double drummer action on that second to last Aussie tour, if the opportunity ever came up again I'd be there with bells on.

 always surprising to see how many fans are into the line up with BB, at the time it seemed people couldn't wait for that era to finish, even though they released some decent stuff and a great album

Well... im definitely speculating of course, but it's somewhat rooted in Melvins past practices. Who knows, perhaps they will work on something but for what they've said before i would be pleasantly surprised. Buzz doesn't seem to ever want to stand still so i imagine him working on something. Whether that's recording, writing or just knocking out some merch stuff is anyone's guess. As far as their recorded work goes, the band probably have at least 2 albums already in the can waiting for release so i doubt there is any short fall on that side of things.

Generally in life you hate the new asshole until there's a new new asshole and then you reminisce fondly about the old new asshole.

Full Melvins European tour dates.

I hope they drop a new album next year so we can say we had ten Melvins albums in a decade.

Doesn't look so likely that we'll get anything else in 2018 does it. Earlier this year i was pretty convinced that after dropping such a short record which consisted of mostly covers and none Buzz numbers, that we would get something else Melvins shaped by October/November. Perhaps something a bit more low key like that rumoured Void Manes effort. Although now i doubt it. 2019 it is!

I'm guessing they'll launch the non super limited A Walk with Love and Death movie bundles at some point, at least I hope so since I missed the first batch.
