That was a bit off what Buzz said to Shitkid but to be expected really he's an older right-wing male and they're young left-wing women, of course they're going to butt heads. But Buzz knows better than to try and equate the struggle and repression of women with his parents not liking him, smh typical Buzz trying too hard to be offensive.

I wish shitkid would just post all the content of their zine. If it's really damning let the world know instead of trying to sell it, capitalist.

I can't believe this is even a thing. It's absurd. Is slander still a thing?

I'm just going to say it. Buzz made a bad move interviewing with that douche, but it's not like he was on there saying racist shit. It was from two years ago. I highly doubt he knew who he was getting into it at the time. It's no secret how he openly dislikes socialism and is pretty conservative. That's all. It doesn't make him a bad guy.

Shitkid using this to get attention and make money is some huge immature bullshit. As a female who swings leftish, I don't think it's an appropriate platform to try to make a fanbase for yourself.

Hi, long time listener, few times caller here.

Buzz has said many times "I don't know why people look to rock stars for political opinions." He's always been an advocate for self reliant thinking. He's joked about the absurdity of the punk rock culture's "norms" and has said "it amazes me that punk rock kids have so many rules about being punk rock." He's also very sarcastic and a bit of an absurdist.

I actually got to see the vid before it got taken down and had never heard of the guy that was interviewing him. The guy basically led the conversation, Buzz was just riffing his riff of punk rock and rules dont go together and the guy tied it to PC Cancel culture. I really don't think Buzz knew who this jerk was, I didn't. Then again I try to avoid bullshit. Thank you for reading my less than two cents, resume your normal programming. - End of line
Bass player, recording engineer, Melvins superfan

I appreciate this. Thank you.

Thor, I really hope that you're right about Buzz not knowing anything about him. I became aware of Gavin 10 or so years ago when he did his "How to piss in public" video. It was hilarious. Then later he came out as an alt-right, chauvinist, racist, asshole.

This is an older Buzz quote that has stuck with me:
"And I think you should look to higher sources than somebody like me or somebody like Jello or somebody like Noam Chomsky—people who step outside of their area of expertise. Noam Chomsky is a linguist. That's what he does best. Why anybody listens to him on politics is beyond me." Noam Chomsky steps outside his area of expertise when he talks about politics? Tell me more about how the Nazis were socialists, guitar guy.

Based on some notable musicians and their respective controversies I doubt this will amount to much in the long term. Time will tell by the time a new album drops or when they tour again.

Agreed. It only seems like a story in the Melvins fan circles. No one else is picking it up or throwing mud......yet. This Shitkid development is interesting. I've been reading Asa's comments over on their FB page. It does give the impression that Buzz and co didn't really do anything wrong. That it was more her who took offense or the lines of communication were a bit poor from both sides. Also her attitude make it seem like she would be almost impossible to work with.

dead mike, take your regressive horseshit to /mu/
I don't know what that is, or who you are, and I don't care, so no.

Impressive comment/username synergy, tho.

"Leftbook" is in an uproar, but 19 year-old transgenders cancelling people didn't affect Lennon, Page, or Bowie, or even Burzum. So I think Buzz is fine

But yeah, I mean, Buzz is right-wing, old guy. Walsby seems pretty right-leaning. All these dudes are uber contrarian, "deal with it, pussy" types who have been surrounded by vapid limousine liberals for decades. Zappa would be saying similar stuff if he were alive. Johnny Ramone too.

The detestable nature of this move aside - doesn't this technically consitute Melvins paraphernalia?  :shock:

From my own observation it's a lesser version of the whole Phil Anselmo shitshow. You're just going to find out who's always hated that band/artist among staunch defenders (and a lot of those people don't go to shows anyways). I don't think the Melvins are really going to lose that many fans over this in the grand scheme of things.
