The Melvins are an American rock band that formed in 1983. They usually perform as a trio, but in recent years have performed as a four piece with two drummers. Since 1984, singer and guitarist Buzz Osborne (also known as King Buzzo) and drummer Dale Crover have been the band's constant members. They are said to be "The Godfathers of grunge music."[citation needed] The band was named after a supervisor at a Thriftway in Montesano, Washington, where Osborne also worked as a clerk. "Melvin" was despised by other employees, and the band's members felt it to be an appropriately ridiculous name.
Originally formed as a hardcore punk band, the Melvins' music is influenced by Black Flag's mix of punk and metal on their album My War, and other slow punk acts like Swans and Flipper; however, their idiosyncratic approach, bizarre sense of humor, and experimentation make neat categorization difficult. Osborne has also stated that his guitar playing is more influenced by Black Flag than Black Sabbath, whom they are often compared to. They often favor very slow tempos, and their sludgy sound was a strong influence on music, especially Nirvana, Soundgarden, Green River, and many other bands from Seattle. Their protegés, however, tended to use more conventional musical structures with this sound. Melvins have also influenced many bands, including Tool] who are personal friends with the band; Crowbar, Mastodon[7] and Eyehategod,[8] who participated in a Melvins tribute album, and Boris, who took their name from the title of a Melvins song.
Still to this day the greatest line up the Melvin’s ever had. A senile animal is the record I usually put on for people who are virgin to them. Melvin Business…2+2=WTF

I learned how to play civilized room 4 months ago on the electric guitar buzzo has weird chords buddy rocks
Amazing performance 🤘❤️🤘
I. LOVE. THIS. FUCKING. BAND.
Fucking amazing show
True musicians!!
Come to Brazil again, dudes!!!
Just a random thought. There's a kit setup behind Dale and Coady, so The Melvins would have been the support band. I feel sorry for whoever had to follow this set. They must have felt terrible watching that from side stage knowing you have to try and better this set.
Headliner was Primus. I went to this show....it was amazing!!!!
Thats how its done
I dont know why ppl think this sounds like fuckin foo fighters "hero" nothin like it.
TIMMAYMOFO Plus Melvins are way more badass than Foo Fighters!
HDM Reviews seen them both. Like them both.
It’s the exact same two opening chords, and a very similar loud, bombastic drum intro. But Melvins did something different and much cooler with it.
Look up buzz's story on him blowing off a certain someone for nosebleeds at a dodgers game. Cheers folks. 🍺
Who's the sorry ass who keeps tainting Melvins colossal performances with his dislikes?
drum intro wouldn't have been out of place on bullhead
