[rhett E rock]

just picked this up at the Seattle show.  the CD is fucking great.  the book is hilarious.  the shit he says about Greg Ginn, hahaha. 

to anyone that doesn't have this.  GET IT.  definitely a must have.  thank you Walsby for sharing this with the world.

[Uncle Fester]

Turnacus here, gonna give an instant, raw review. A blogcast without the blogging.

I'm gonna open up the package and put the cd in my computer. Alright this is something neat. I like it. Actually this is really good, I did not expect to be pleased, but what can I say I am. Ok, now I'm gonna press play and listen to the cd. Ok, the sound quality sucks man-cunt. But, what can I say, it's interesting to hear evolving Melvins's tunes. Buzz's voice sounds higher pitched, in fact, it sounds like Jared Warrens. This is probably because Jared and Buzz are half-brothers/father-son/nephew-uncle.

But yeah, I plan on reading the comic book too. Well played Walsby.

Obscure demo recordings of awesomely Melvins songs NEVER let me down

[turnacus]

The vox on vile vermillion vacancy remind me of Tweak Bird at first.

[mhelmo]

I now think there was a fuckup in the production of the whole thing. The pitch of every song seems to have been increased by a semitone.
Compare these recordings to the ones that ended up on Ozma. Every single song up by a semitone.

Probably due to the machine it was recorded on. I'm having the same type of issues trying to digitize some old cassettes... the tape decks from back-in-the-day got wacky, with one machine playing at a different speed from the next... even the same models, one machine could be drastically different from the next... FWIW

[TheLegitMan93]

I'm listening to this right now and I haven't listened in awhile but it's still even more awesome than last time I heard it... they should have used the unreleased songs from this session instead of those more mediocre tracks from Ozma like Cranky Messiah and Agonizer... Dime-Lined Divide and Excess Pool are WAY cooler. Even the original version of "Vile Vermillion Vacancy" rocks hard. LOVE THIS. Their songwriting was awesome during this period.

[Dr.Benway]

Agonizer mediocre?  pffft...
GPT/ Ozma was the first Melvins I heard and the way that opening riff in Agonizer unfolds is one of the things that got me hooked. 

[Mount Ambulance]

Hell Yeah, Agonizer is right up there ... with the best! Sheeesh!

[homeless_dad]

Agonizer and dead dressed have some crazy time signatures.  And that's

why I love these guys.

In an unsent letter to Dale, Kurt mentions V.V.V.  It's in the Journals book.

Also at the beginning of one of the many different versions of Outcestide I that I have, you can hear the very end of M.L. demo version of Revulsion playing (its mainly a little feedback and a bend of a guitar string) just before If You Must begins.

I wonder where ever it was booted from, if they had both melvins and nirvana on the same cassette tape?

i really need to get this!
