i bought neither here nor there on tour this fall kinda hoping it had more of their history, but was a little disappointed that it didn't. if there was ever a band in the history of music that demands a lengthy, in depth bio, wouldn't you say it would be the mighty melvins?

For the longest time I have secretly harbored the desire of being commissioned to write the definitive Melvins biography.  My life's work; a three-volume scholarly tome chronicling everything the band has ever done.  Compiling hours and hours of first-hand interviews with Buzz, Dale, Kevin, all former band members, friends and family.  

This dream was crushed when Buzz said that he decided to make an art book out of Neither Here Nor There because he despises rock band biographies and considers them trash.  My book would obviously be much more in depth than your typical hackjob; which are usually culled from a handful of outdated magazine articles.  

But Buzz is stubborn and I doubt he will ever consent to an authorized document on his life and work.
