Levitation has announced its first date in South America for 2027. They have also stated that there will be dates in Buenos Aires and Santiago as well. Tickets will be on sale on Wednesday at 10AM BST
My friend and I got Houdini tattoos yesterday. We’ve been fans since we were very young kids and we’ve been friends since 2nd grade. I’m moving away soon so it only felt right to have a proper send off.
Another fantastic show! Got vids on my insta. PS: Scott Ian and Michael Jason Crain are in these pics too!
From the 1990 "With Yo' Heart, Not Yo' Hands" single.
I’ve been listening to primarily heavy dnb/jungle the last few years but my roots are in metal and heavier music. I’ve always known about the Melvins but overlooked them due to a variety of irrelevant reasons
The electronic music scene has become really saturated with artists making tracks for Tik Tok so lately I’ve been craving something well off the beaten path. A few weeks ago I was feeling pretty down and I threw on Bullhead, lit up a few bowls and listened through. It clicked for me right away and I bought the vinyl immediately (side note: been getting back into collecting physical media so discovering the band is a blessing and a curse for that). I dont need to get into it because we all know, but when they get into a groove on that album, it really just makes sense and there’s no other way to explain it. I was hooked from there on.
Now I feel like I want to consume everything I can about the band. Partially my ADHD but it’s mostly because they are so good. The sound is just so purely unique in its rawness and heaviness. I’m really happy to have discovered the band and there’s so much more to listen to.
Reading through this subreddit and seeing all of the releases they have out there makes this seem like a cool community. True music for the outsider within us all
I currently have Houdini, the 1-12 singles set, and Alive at the Fucker Club on CD and the Bullhead vinyl. I’m looking to get Eggnog, Lysol, and Ozma/GPT next because I really like this phase of the Melvins. I still have yet to explore Stoner Witch and onwards so I’m excited to consume all of this music. I’ve read that Working With God has Bullhead vibes so I want to check that one out especially. Any recommendations of 2010s and up Melvins? Seems like that era forward is a real mixed bag
Mods please Delete if this isn’t cool, I’ve thought hard about it and I see these CDs for like $29 on eBay, but I’d rather trade with one of you dudes and get something OOP for my collection. Win win. Let me know if you’ve got something I don’t and I’ll decide Sunday night 8pm EST.
I’ve got:
Mullet (Melvins ‘83)
Slithering Slaughter
Twins of Evil (with Boris)
Savage Imperial Death March (w/Napalm Death)
White Lazy Boy (with mudhoney)
Controlling Data (w/Helms Alee)
Sabbath (w/Al Cisneros)
Alive at the Fucker Club
Six Pack (King Buzzo and Trevor Dunn acoustic)

one of the best melvins sets i’ve seen in years 🤘🏼
I heard the 1st track Black Hall but I missed the $5 cd sell. Is there anywhere I can hear the rest of the tracks?
Pics I got from the Melvins / Tomahawk show in Denver! Ft Trevor Dunn. I’m really proud of these! This was my first time seeing Melvins and they were fantastic!
