Even seeing Night Goat live I honestly prefer A History of Bad Men so I readily admit to being in the minority of this board.

i guess i am vote #3  for History of Bad Men
i like the vocals and the bass a little better
and      i have only heard it 400 times vs. the thousands of times i have heard Night Goat
that is my absurd reasoning
its like choosing purple cush over the green crystally sticky icky
hard to choose , but I will take what i have ingested less of I guess
if i had to pick one to play at my funeral I go with Bad Men

HOBM gave me chills first few times I heard it.  I guess the sentimental value is what did it for me.   I got into the Melvins around Bullhead, but Houdini really changed my perspective on music.

in that purple vs crystally poll i'm always down with the dusty weed :P

also,
the Jared era is upon us. Best aquisition that Dale  and Buzz ever made!!!!
They got to invest in a true gem. On the Tight Bros stuff he is only a vocalist but man
he owns that band, put a bass in his hands and 8 years of KARP later he's both
bassist and vocalist, add him to the Melvins mix with King Coady and boys, the rest is history

The era that someone first dug into the Melvins is probably why so many people went Night Goat and it makes sense.  I just recently got into the Melvins and while Houdini was one of the first albums I bought I think since my first live experiences were with the ASA catalogue that explains why I went HOBM.

Either way, hooky & heavy bass-centric songs have a special place in my book which also explains why Karp & Big Business are on regular rotation in my cd players.

Um, i'm trying to come up with a reason and i can't.

It's like comparing 'The Bloated Pope' and 'Blood Witch'.  There is no right choice.  Just similarities and preferences.

Yea,  No Talent always has been one of my favorite bands, and not just because I knew them.  Brian did some wonderful production for them and the cd's sounded fan-fucking-tastic.  Didn't hurt that Benn wrote some great songs.....

for sure,   they had a good thing goin...  i ran into sweeny hte other night at a show up here of  a band called kill orchestra i think from seattle.  way cool band.  bass, drums, and sax and the bass player could hang with geddy or les, the guy was amazing.   but he was al wasted and said, "i'm wanna play some music again, i'm gonna make some calls and start up the band again."  i don;t know if it was drunk talk but that would be pretty sweet.
my copy of that disc is hammered you know were i could pick up another one by chance?  DOE RAY  is a bad ass song

I haven't seen Sweeney in ages.....Anyway......You would have to get a burned copy.  I don't know how many they ran off of either cd, but I know they are both 'sold out',  as it were.

you know, aside from being a casual meeting place to yuk it up with melvins fans, this board ALSO functions as a legally binding document.
are you sure you want to make this request?
