I stole the Bullhead cassette from my older brother when he was away at college. I was 15 or 16 at the time.

It's all fucking good-dini as far as I'm concerned. Then again, I'd eat a MELVINS deep fried turd. GO MELVINS!!

A few years ago, a friend of mine was lending me a bunch of jazz CDs to listen to.  For some reason, Hostile Ambient Takeover was misplaced along with the jazz.  At the time, it didn't grab me, but I came back for more the summer later and bought Stoner Witch.  Then Houdini.  The the Maggot.  Then Pigs of the Roman Empire.  
And it kept going like that.

I first heard of them in connection with the "grunge" bands coming out of Seattle.  I didn't actually hear any of their songs until a while later, however.  I was reading about Kurt Cobain and found out that he loved the Melvins.  I decided to download some of their music and fell in love immediately.

i had heard a lot about the melvins of course because of nirvana. but i never got into them until i read an interview with them in some free magazine they distribute in colorado about them playing a show in boulder with godheadsilo. also got into godheadsilo. missed the show but i went out and picked up houdini and stoner witch immediately, and the rest followed soon after. by the time stag came out i had everything and saw them for the first time in denver at the ogden theatre about a week after stag came out. i was going to see them open for white zombie the year previous to that but i couldnt find the mammoth events center. turns out it was right next to the ogden theatre which i had been too before. i felt kind of dumb.
