2023

Oooof at the stake

[vince furnier]

From Buzzo's comments there are 3 limited edition releases this year. The Devil You Know EP, the recently announced Throbbing Gristle LP with Void Manes and then later in the year some kind of release with Helms Alee. Featuring a re-recording of At The Stake, a cover of a Helms Alee track and some new material. And that sounds like it for the year until 2024!

if they're having guest musicians on, they'd better consider Ryan Adams. dude layed it on the line for them. 

[))))((((]

The fact that it's 3 from Ipecac, 3 with Revolver and 2 (and one on the way) with Haze may mean another AmRep! The Helms Alee thing. Although the fact that the Melvins FB keep linking the Ipecac site probably means it's gonna be out with them.

Consider this: Melvins have been working on their best Throbbing Gristle impression, they've gone back and re-recorded older, heavier material, and now with Dale and Buzz living in different cities, they're probably passing demos back and forth, like the Bad Mood Rising sessions.

If they can harness all these elements into one recording their next, LP will be total tits!

Stallion, are you going to the Italian shows?

You know the answer already! He's got to go see Dale.

You know the answer already! He's got to go see Dale.

My guess is he doesn't know they're in Italy!

I thought the Tel Aviv shows were the last ones for this tour? Just seen the photo and it looks like some mini festival.

Hey guys, unfortunately i will miss both the two italian shows ,tonight in Turin and tomorrow in Bologna.both cities are not too close and it was almost impossible to be there after work..btw, the boys are going to melt on stage, weather is fucking hot over here...

How many shows have the Melvins played?

How many shows have the Melvins played?

42 so far this year. 11 on the Geek Tour with Mr Bungle and 31 on the European 40th Anniversary tour.

43 shows left to play on the Twins Of Evil tour.

So 85 shows in total for 2023. That is unless they add a few one off ones around the end of the year. Basically it's a LOT of gigs.

What's all this flute talk about?

It's tied to Andre 3000, who recently put out a flute album. He took pictures with the Melvins backstage in Georgia a few years ago.
