Melvins. The band for real human beings.
*unreal
One of the only bands on earth that can sound totally sloppy and tight as hell at the same time. Their live shows are the shit.
Very well put ,
Along with Helmet, this is one band I need to see before I die.
@@zeroone7867 yes you do. Just saw them not too long ago. Amazing every damn time
Pavement also fits that description
@@zeroone7867 I got to see them with Helmet many years ago at the Troubadour in Hollywood. Definitely one of my favorite shows. John Stanier blew me away. he played every Helmet drum part note for note. Most drummers embellish a little, which can of course be cool too. It is rare to hear drummers play songs note for note.
To me, the principle miracle of the Melvins, after Dale's incredible drumming, and Buzz uncanny songwriting, is his ability to memorize all that word salad of his lyrics.
The Melvins are quite good at playing the rock and roll music.
No they are quite not.

That aluminum flying v bass is one of the sickest things I've ever seen.
Chrome finish.one of a kind.you should see it when it's polished.
Who is the bass player.? Do you Know?
@@enriquevargas1461 Jeff Pinkus, formerly of the Butthole Surfers. Didn't you see his "PINKUS" strap?
@@enriquevargas1461 which one ?
@@stefdim2724 on the left, is that one of the macdonald bros from redd kross on the other bass?
One of the greatest enigmas in music. These guys should have made it big but never did. Maybe them not making it big is part of their charm? Such a great band.
They're still around after all these years. That alone would be big enough for me, lol.
They’re pretty famous for those in the know
@@Followmybliss777 definitely
Define "made it"... Their sound wasn't approachable or sellable for mainstream as speed punk style was long gone in the 80s. But, they still have a loyal following, they are still doing shows LONG AFTER many of the "made it" bands have quit. So I think they are doing alright.
The odd time signatures are too much for the 😴 masses.
But if you take the journey with The Melvins you will find the rewards are great.
The Melvins are the Rodney Dangerfield of Rock-n-Roll. They don’t get the respect they deserve!
Maybe because they're not that great.
@@gogoyubari366 🔪🖕
@@gogoyubari366 you ain't no chicken hawk, boy. Melvins rock, give yer balls a tug.
they'll get respect when they give respect. FK This band
You win the internet
God I love everything about the Melvins. Not only do they represent everything about the underground music scene to me, but they're powerful, unique and just outright weird. Dale Crover is my favorite all time drummer.
Hardest working band in the world. Unbelievable, never lost a watt in energy since the eighties
Best live show I ever saw. Explosive from start to finish
FGvO 1982 mike watt does 40 shows in a row, never lost a Melvin
That version of Kicking Machine is easily 100x better than the album version. Holy shit. What energy. They play shows like a punk band but their albums are sludge metal.
Are they just Melvins?
Tom Senft yep.
Dale is one the greatest drummers ever! Love his chops. So unique and so influential.
That s right
He is
I wonder if he still has that crazy looking drum set that he had when he was jamming w NIRVANA.
Jeff F-ing Pinkus, ladies and gentlemen!
Literally, an absolute bad ass
He plays on Purpose, with a Purpose
Social Isolation brought me here.
Thank you Melvins for being a part of our Life♥♥♥
THE MEEEEEEEELVIIIINS....proving that the music industry is wrong since 1983...lol
Wrong how?
j r I believe he’s implying the music industry is wrong because the melvins aren’t seen as a commercially viable band.
wrong in all 1000000000000000000 millions possible ways
?............Snivlem
Nope. These guys are exactly where they are supposed to be talent wise.
Love this band. Dale Crover is a legendary drummer!
Zen Khan Plus he toured with the circle jerks so that gives him brownie points
High frequency Voyager dropping them bombs!
I agree with you 100% Mark. He is truly a beast on the drums. Just so under-rated and just a very humble human being. Can't wait to see the Melvins again.
One of the best drummers ever
Turned around in a tiny mens room to run into Dale washing his hands. " Thanks for everything Dale". " Thanks for being into the band."
The greatest and hardest working American rock and roll band since Cheap Trick. Constantly on the road and putting out records, for themselves first, and us if we want in. Gotta love this.
well put.
What about 'Kings X'? Same trio, same three killing it after all these years.
Damn Right!ua-cam.com/video/OqDlOKbXuls/v-deo.html
Agree, certainly a hard working band, respect the integrity to performing and the quality of their music . Anti Flag would be another band that comes to mind that has or continues to gig a ton. In other genres for example B.B. King was just ridiculous doing something like over 250 shows a year on the road or The Grateful Dead who toured relentlessly for decades. On a local level here in the C-Bus Methmatic's are putting up numbers in terms of shows. I'm not saying one is more important or does more than another, I just respect folks with the work ethic and DYI attitude to get out there and do it year after year for like decades. There are quite a few that do- in truth a great many extremely talented performing artists regardless of genre - busking at the club level is just a reality of the profession regardless of level of commercial sales or recorded material. For your local pro musician who is trying to support a family it's real good thing to have the work. The typical problem is most towns have their equivalent to the A call list -the elite few that get most of the work, for recording, Broadway acts, or performers like Dr. John or George Jones, that almost always used to hire local for their shows. To get on such a list you basically have to be a musical god (master multi instrumentalist and of multiple genres of music).
UHHHHH NO.. THEY ARE NOT. THEY CAN BARELY PLAY. AND THEY HAVE NO TASTE AT ALL
NO EFFORT. ITS LIKE THEY ARE JUST TRASH PEOPLE WHO DO NOTHING OF VALUE. THIS ISNT EVEN GOOD IN ANY SENSE TO LISTEN TO
Somewhere in the crowd a future legend is there in the making.
I've heard of this band before but, holy shit, I'm absolutely loving them
Melvins never disappoint.
Sick
Except the competition at the best sweater contest
Watch an interview with them I was disappointed
TOO BAD THEY ARE TRASH AND 99% OF PEOPLE THINK SO
There is a Greek lady wondering where her sweater went
edited...laugh out loud
Marty Fowler hey now that's my mother ..
She forgets lending it to Buzzo.
There is an Asian lady on the corner that forgot to pay her rent, She was outta breath. She forgot to breathe.
Marty Fowler reminds me of mugatu from Zoolander
Coming back here 2 years later to say that revisit that show every couples of weeks/month. Epic. One Butthole surfer, One Red Kross, One of the greatest drummer ever ( and a Nirvana drummer at some point) & a Fucking King. Doesn't get any better. lol
The Melvins | House Of Strombo 0745am 26.9.23 what's this melvins butthole cross over? not having a photographic aura, i wouldn't know... safe to say i'll be moving down to more less cluttered fucking place.... free from the riff raff....
They're from another space, Man.... From another dimension.... Buzz and Dale, Man, they're from another planet, for sure..... And I Love It !!!!
One of the most underappreciated voices in rock
Seeing Pinkus playing Moving to Florida almost 40 years after its release with The Melvins is the best part of 2021 thusfarr!!
Wow!! That dude from outer space is my new favorite guitarist!!
All hail King Buzzo!
I mention these guys to EVERYONE I have literally EVER MET. Just met them, "hey, have you heard of Melvins?"
Hey, have you heard of RED CAN?
same lmao
The most impressive part is that they can remain together with 2 bassists
What do you think they talk about in the van
1 billion thumbs up, im sitt'in in rehab at 50 and this is the best therapy ive had. HAPPY PLACE. gracias
Cheryl Polloreno rehab is for quitters. Seriously, I hope your soberish because you’ll live longer & be able to see mor live shows!
rehab at 50. you're a winner.
Cheryl I have persistent suicidal major depressive disorder. Music is the only drug/therapy that has prevented me from self inflicted demise. I hope it helps you as well. Congrats on your self care, wishing you peace and health.
@Andrea Layne it's true and you know it.
Andrea Layne I agree with your statement, he is a DICK
First Time listening the “Melvins”. Not boring
melvins should clone themselves and go for the most epic line up... 5 drummers 6bassists and 8 buzz's =P
I liked your comment but had to downvote cause its at 169
@@Sunn_on_my_D you don’t have to downvote, just don’t like
Fuck Yea!!!!!
I love the Melvins. They're comfort food.
Check out RED CAN - Sunday Night Duel ;)
The Melvins | House Of Strombo 0757am 26.9.23 all i hear is: washer pal! expressed in a very gruff and croaky voice.
Best drummer period
perfect live sound. especially the drums. props to the sound guy.
Buzz is truly an electric wizard! Just look at him! ❤️
And electric wizard is a buzz
All I hear is bass
He looks like my grandmother
@@brutallyhonest123 Our grandmothers look alike
He has that 80s toaster aquanet style
I dare say this is one of the best line ups the Melvins have ever had.
This sound is sonic fury but my favorite lineup is the senile animal with the 2 drummers. But I find this sound superior on wax
@@danosullivan4358 Senile Animal era was AMAZING! Dale and Coady!
I've had the pleasure of seeing the Melvins at least a dozen times over the years and they are consistently weird and heavy and awesome.
Samesies! 💗😘
#metoo. B3st band ever.
yes. Mostly I saw them in small venues in the San Francisco area. Watching (or listening) to them (at the Gilman in Oakland) convert a crowd of teenage thrash punkers into sludge worshippers was truly an amazing thing to witness.
That drummer , wow.
Two bass guitars shouldn't work, yet they're like "mate, we're the fuckin' Melvins!" and then it totally does! So much love to them. It's mind blowing how consistent and relevant they are even now. I swear they just get stronger and more amazing all the time. Their best stuff has been all in the last 10 years or even 5 years. That should defy all conventionally held logic yet the Melvins are still one of the finest acts on the planet. I HAVE to see them before I perish for good.
I think their best stuff is all of it. No joke, the first 3 or 4 records were all amazing too. bullhead, lysol and ozma are classics
Any arrangement of instrumentals can work if one just knows how.
Oliver Cant One down the left side, one down the right side. Buzzo up the middle.
I've seen them 19 times,since the maggot days...best act live
Spinal Tap did it first
What a nice group of boys 😃
I could NEVER get sick of listening to Crover drum!!!
Jeff Pinkus making Melvins little more badass... Like it...
Dale Crover... Damn he’s good... I mean they’re all crazy talented, and crazy consistent too. One of the few bands that’s been around for decades who’s new music you actually DO want to hear!
Dale is one of the most underrated drummers going
Yes. Some people say rockin' out loud and hard past your 50s, or even 40s, is lame. I just point to the Melvins. Ageless.
I've seen the Melvins many times ,and they are as tight a unit now as they ever were .amazing show ,thank you George and thank you George's neighbors ,if you still live nextdoor after George having the Melvins over you guys are either super cool or deaf or both lol .
God damn i love this sound
What in the actual fuck did I just hear for the first time? I’ve never had an eargasm like this before. I’m left soiled and wanting for more . . .
47 and just discovered the Melvins , love their sound !
I don’t know how you went 47 years without hearing of them.
@Jon Luther it happens. I totally missed Kyuss in the 90s, wasn't until about 13 yrs ago when I first heard them.
Lots of music out there, thankfully. 🤟🏽
I love these guys that blur the lines between bass and guitar.
House show of a lifetime.
The Melvin's stand the test of time. True to their word. Non sellout's.
Was here and met Buzz afterwards. He's the most chill guy ever.
ok, i had my doubts too (maybe he was one of the ten guys in the room, lol). I would never call Buzzo a chill guy, but this may have been an exception... wouldn't just call the dude a liar.
Zeek McSleek He talked to me and 2 other guys at his van about hair and music in general. Took photos with us too. He was really relaxed and funny. Pics on insta @b.bertenshizzle if you need proof lol
Boh Gro I was at the show lol I'm the girl with the Public Image Ltd shirt
How do you attend these shows? This looked so killer
Agreed, Buzz is pretty down to earth. I got to talk to him for about 10 minutes outside the Hawthorne Theater in Portland a few years ago.
Melvins Thank you for all these years!
A dying breed in the music industry, true artists & innovators........
I recommend you Red Can ;)
Passion! ,Commitment, power! Originality!!! THATS MELVINS!!!!
All I hear in Melvins is honesty.
NO ONE OUT HEAVY’S MELVINS! Period!!!!
My first Melvins show early 80’s was at an old Public Storage building in downtown Tacoma. No stage and they were playing old Kiss and Sabbath songs. Truly an amazing band!
Viva Tacoma!!!
I've never known much about the melvins I always heard the name back in the 90s and everything I see something by them I'm just, like damn that's really bad ass I dig they're music..I'm on a Melvin binge ight now
"Oh, so my art/music isn't 'accessible to the masses'? Good!! It's not supposed to be! I do what I want, where I want, how I want" - King Buzzo Rock On!
I fucking love Dale and Buzz, such an unique duo. Unmatchable.
don't forget to breathe!! HEAVYYYY!!
Bone crunching!
music made by music freaks always sounds great...
Check out RED CAN - Sunday Night Duel
Dale and two bases, oh yeah!
I don't understand how people can have a live personal performance and just stand and watch. I'd be rocking out!
i saw them open for "DOWN" in portland,OR. Melvins had 2 drummers on stage. Amazing live bands
Go check out Big Business, the band of the second drummer/bassist at the time!
Why are they so goddamn legendary? I'll never understand their magic. They just...damn, they're good.
Watch old videos of Melvins shows in the late 80's and early 90's, you will see why.
The band is legendary.
HMan Absolutely. From Mangled Demos From 1983 (without Crover), to Ten Songs and onward, they're insane
Mattius Fincham you said what i was thinking, they just work! You cant put it in words, i can say, they show up to deliver 100%, not 110-150% but do what they do, charged to full capacity with positive energy, Melvins fans know what to expect, and the band feeds off the fans as much as the fans do the band!
Between their awsome weird skills for writing music,their inovation in it,their hard work ethics,their courage to do what they want for more than 30 years. There's plenty to choose!!
I don't know if it's truth or not,suposely Kurt Cobain said that the Melvins were the past,the present and the future of rock music in one band! I always think that sentence fit them so well has we go through Melvins discography.
Son of a bitch! That was magic.
Dear god, that was something special.
Meeeelviiiins!!!!
That EGC flying V is so sick
Is that a custom model? I've never seen that before.
@@Francis-rs7zu Most likely custom and probably not too recent. I'm pretty sure Kevin isn't "supposed" to make anymore Gibson shaped guitars.
@@ledheavy26 What does "EGC" stand for? That bass, is a dream come true!

I'm glad they added Jeff Pinkus to their band.
Bow down.. long live the melvins! 🙆♂️

Melvins sound incredible , and King Buzzo sounds amazing! He looks better than ever! They will always be hot!!🎵🎶🎶🎶🎸
Jumpin Jiminy!!!
I can only imagine how loud it was in that little room with two bass players to boot!
Melvin's never disappoint
My favorite line up killer!
There are bands with cool lirycs, there are bands with cool riffs, there are bands that look good, and then there;s melvins. An autonomical atom bomb to make you crap your pants, and make you grateful for it
I’ve heard of The Melvin’s but never listened to them. Omg they’re amazing 😱
Me too, didnt knew them 2 months ago...what a waste of my life not knowing them lol
Right?
I been a fan forever. Good starting point is Houdini or Stoner Witch I reckon.
UHHHHH NO.. THEY ARE NOT. THEY CAN BARELY PLAY. AND THEY HAVE NO TASTE AT ALL
NO EFFORT. ITS LIKE THEY ARE JUST TRASH PEOPLE WHO DO NOTHING OF VALUE. THIS ISNT EVEN GOOD IN ANY SENSE TO LISTEN TO
@@krazykillerklowns861 I bet you're a real hoot at party's.
this is one of the greatest things i've ever witnessed.
The drummer definitely holds this band together
This is some next-level shit. Makes me happy.
Just when I didn't think I could like the Melvins more... basses loaded.
This is the best way to watch any band. Tight quarters shaking to your bones from the sound.
Still that good since 1983, grunge has come and gone along with many metal bands 80's and 90's... Respect!!👍👍
Great Scott
Buzzo lookin like liz taylor and robert smiths love child.
Never stop.
I liked them when I heard them for the first time back in '91...I don't know why I'm surprised I love this. They are still great
To be honest... I’ve heard of the Melvins several times over the decades but this is the first time hearing them. Good stuff!
Edit: For once the UA-cam algorithm does me a solid 😎
That's funny because I've seen the Melvin's over the decades, but this is the first time actually hearing them.
@@shawncovert8120 😂 I can understand that phenomenon… 😜
I’m just blown the fuck away 😲😕😃
That was huuuuuge!!
Best drummer ever.
A year later and yeah, best drummer ever.
These guys should get a record deal!
They are with Ipecac Best place to be.
Florida with Pinkus on bass!!!! Makes me moist!
This drummer is every bit a beast Bonham was..for reals.
Words can't express the joy I feel. Grateful for The Melvins.
Wow! My first exposure to the legendary Melvins. I like it!!
Stuart Rice, me too man and I’m almost 48!
Just never really listened to them
once you go Melvins, you never go back
Dale killed it at the end there🤚🏻🤚🏻🤚🏻
This is what a party should look like.... melvins!!!
Melvins killing it like always
Killed it so hard the crowd died. Legit no one is moving.
There cover of Florida is pretty spot on
I actually liked it better than the original. 🤔
Fuck Yeah! The Melvins are bad ass!
Would love to see them and murder junkies tour together
Jeff F-ing Pinkus, ladies and gentlemen!
Seen the Melvin's many times never gets old
I've just found something! this is so fucking good.
Say somebody's performance is sloppy. But if it has its own rules of being sloppy, it becomes something one and only.
I want to have a Melvins House Party!
