Has anyone seen Melvins?

Post by Helter »

They are playing a local venue I think. I've never really listened to them but I know they're really respected and I think Boris is named after them? Anyway are they worth seeing? Any idea what they'll be playing and of course any suggested albums would be appreciated since they have a pretty huge discography.

I saw them last time they came though Baltimore, was a good time, great set and I enjoyed it through and through even though I've not given all of their albums a listen.
Boris is named after the Melvins song of the same name, if you wanted to start there!
Lysol is their big drone album

Seen them many, many times. Especially with the Big Business boys on board, definitely worth going.

One of my favorite bands of all time for sure. Saw them once a few years ago, it was a fucking blast! Played two hours like kings and then another 15 minute jam at the end. Well worth it. I missed them last year during their Melvins Lite tour, but their 30th anniversary tour is already engraved in my schedule.
awesome signature with witty quotes from all you fuckers :)

saw the melvins a bunch in the nineties. haven't seen them in fifteen years, or so. i still really love their early records (gluey porch treatments through lysol), but kinda stopped paying attention after a while. definitely would see them if i had the chance, just for the hell of it, even though i doubt they'd play any songs i even recognize.
