They are the ones who created this style back in late 1980s. Bands like Riggor Mortis, Soilent Green, Acid Bath, Crow bar, eyehategod, early Down evolved it. If you're curious of riggor mortis, it's the first band Mike Scaccia and Al Jorgensen formed before Ministry.
Sleepy3810 Do you mean Leach? Never heard of them but pretty sure they heard of mike scaccia which along with Melvins created distinct heavy guitar sound especially the heavy picking which Mike is known for. Like the saying goes respect your elders they did it first.
It'd be fair to say Flipper and the sludgier Black Flag songs influenced the Melvins, too. The "My War" record was huge in Seattle-area punk for sure at that time.
Melvins are such a great mix of grim metal and being total clowns. Way heavier than a lot of "heavy" bands but they don't take themselves nearly as seriously.
Night Goat - Melvins (European Tour 2009) Perfect Quality 0901am 19.10.23 these guys are probably a band's band and focussed enough to not bother with the b.s of whatever grunge was.... as for the sub pop era... nice. and fun. fun and nice. the two missing dwarves.
if I'm ever in a coma, play the melvins to wake me up. hell, play it if I'm dead, this could rip you off the astral plane..fark! just thought imagine being conceived to this music!!!!
Dude , this " Bad Melvins" period is the best Melvins´s era . Fan since the days I used to play catch with Melvin´s granpa and live @Hellfest 2011 is " still" one of the greatest performances of all time (by any band out there - any style ) .

Like some ancient aquatic horror slowly creeping through the muck and murk, rummaging for an easy meal. Nothing escapes it's bacteria-covered dagger teeth. A giant maw from out of the darkness, over in a heartbeat. Such is the way of things.
The great disadvantage of allowing people to thumb up/down things. See what I did with your comment? Don't mean shit in the greater shape of things. Like me seeing the Melvins twice in a month's time.
Only other band I've seen live that rips with 2 drummers was Pigface about 20 or 25 years ago. Killer shit, like floated a keg and ate a 4 day old taco bell taco salad type killer shit. Screw the teeth, it could make your bowels growl on the 100.
If you dig the big two drummer sound, check out Thee Oh Sees. They're way more punk and psychedelic focused, but they remind me a lot of the Melvins too with the raw riffs and big sound.
@@billriddle9215 I've only seen two, early/mid 90s and then around 04. No clue if they still do anything, but I still get email blasts from Atkins from signing up probably 25 years ago 🤣
This is what the movement of tectonic plates sounds like.
This is what a giant wad of dough rising sounds like.
ever listen to sunn 0)))
haha nice analogy, very fitting
heh
Anak Krakatoa shit...…….
One thing great about the Melvins is they didn't give a damn if anyone was impatient with their slow tempos.
I'm impatient with the fast temos

Is it me or contrary to most band these guys are actually getting better with age...
Like a fine wine or spunken
no they are, just like The Fall did
@meowington meowsworth Kinda?
Dinosaur jr did that too so weird how that works when I’m in a band I hope I have that ability
You can tell they still have a love for what they do which can certainly extend a bands lifespan.

Nailed it
wouldn't have them any other way
Word
That's why A History Of Bad Men is truly Heath Ledgers Joker theme song.
The bass in this song is so awesome
If nothing else, aspiring little baby bass guitar players need to study melvins and Jared really sets it off better than most.
Best thing about the song 👍
you mean THE BASS
@@elusive_mg fuck yeah
Melvins and Ministry have some of the heaviest basslines.
This is the soundtrack to a glacier melting. This is a compliment.
Well put.
These guys quietly paved the way for all that is the sound of Grunge. Seattle was magical during these times…I miss it.
Oh how we all miss the "blonde one" .
Nirvana and Pearl Jam just went right past them to the top.

The brilliance with which these guys make so much out of so little is like Bobby Flay winning Iron Chef with a coke spoon and a quail egg.
This is a really good comment.
Buzzo in a god damn satanic snuggie. Beautiful.
His wife makes them for him. 🖤
I like how hard the bass player’s goin to that hard ass riff for like 3 mins
Just like beating one out for that moment of spunken. Which girls generally like
I mean it’s hands down probably top ten bass riffs of all time
Dale is a great drummer, you can instantly tell it's him on the sticks, that is not only hard but almost impossible.
look at him in all of his greatness...
Buzzo is King 👑
I've never seen two drum sets playing on stage at the same time that is awesome
allman brothers had 2 drummers. Also King crimson toured with 2 drummers
Frank Zappa, Osees, Genesis...
They regularly use two bassists as well
The smashing pumpkins during adore tour
Butthole Surfers
this was by far the best Melvins lineup IMHO
I love the 2 drummers playing together, it adds so much more power
One of their best songs. Saw them live at the House of Blues with Down.
I like how Buzz's number one fan is right behind him the whole time
This song sounds so much better with Jared Warren's bass tone and two drummers.
totally agree
Indeed
Better than the version on Houdini, no doubt. But the original version from the 7 inch on AmRep with Joe Preston on bass is still tops IMO.
@@danmalone7649 Joe Preston is absolutely the best. And he keeps it up whatever artist he's playing with.
@@o0julek0o Agree 100%
Incredible. One of only a handful of bands I like that sound even better live
How the hell have I never heard this unbelievable song before ? What else am I missing ??
An over abundance of care?.
43 more albums
....today is a beautiful day, because its Saturday and I listened to The Melvins :)
Getting my Melvins fix again in June. They're playing the Netherlands/Belgium like clockwork at least yearly these last 4-5 years. :)
Absolute masterpiece the entire record
if I'm ever in a coma, play the melvins to wake me up. hell, play it if I'm dead, this could rip you off the astral plane..fark! just thought imagine being conceived to this music!!!!
29 years later after my 1st listen (to M in general) and I STILL get goosebumps

THIS is what glory sounds like, right here!
Impossible to find one decent drummer for a band. Buzz gets 2! 😂
Perfect isn’t a word that should be thrown around but this recording is PERFECT.
this has playing inside my head for days
Drums sound amazing, as usual 🔥
I discovered these guys about six months ago, I've been missing out. These guys rule!!!!
Perfect quality.
This video made my day, my week, my month, my year...
Finally, someting not recorded by a potato. thank you

These guys are awesome. Love that hair with the timing of the music. Such a great vibe !
Hail The GOAT!
I just fell in love with this song yesterday!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ all time fav band
This was my favorite video to watch while vaping Deschoroketamine
best concert i ever went to, greetings from germany!
Saw them last night. Shit was intense. I'm definitely seeing them again when they come back to St. Louis.
This is THE best Melvins line up....and I like them all.
Like some ancient aquatic horror slowly creeping through the muck and murk, rummaging for an easy meal. Nothing escapes it's bacteria-covered dagger teeth. A giant maw from out of the darkness, over in a heartbeat. Such is the way of things.
So nice seeing crowds before everyone was holding up phones.
Me explotaron los auriculares!!! Tremendos
The God Fathers of Grunge
goddamn, this is some face melting shit. fucking awesomeness.
This is the soundwaves going on in ancient Mongols’ brains before they went and massacred a city.
saw the london show and it still stands as one of the best live performances i've ever seen. this is awesome btw
This is so awesome.
Beautiful crisp!
Goddammit I love these guys
I play this during home invasions, provides a nice air of...creep.
Perfect music to pillage villages to. Makes all the hairs on me arms stand up.
its the most amazing.... magical song!
Im still watching... and wishing I there!
Damn. That was worth watching
Grazie mille Francesco; great sound and visually engaging. Nice!!!!
Fantastic
what a great performance!
AWESOME version.😁👍
Holy shit, amazing.
Brilliant !
Maybe I should give up the machete business and get a bass....
Murder me daddy
Nah bro keep stacking bodies
LOL 😂
I bet you'd SHRED.
Don't let your mom know though
The best Jerry! The best!
sounds awesome :)
Comes on like long slow high...
Ages like fine wine...
Amo questa band !!!
That bass tone is fucking amazing
Incredible
Holy shit, this is sooo amazing

Excellent
This song helps me poop when constipated! THIS IS THE SHIT!!!
Hey, this sounds exactly like some shit I heard that came 10 years after the Melvins did it!
Perfección!!!!
The greatest things always have two drummers
Holy fuck this is fucking rad they slammin it
God, this Bass!!!!
yup, seen these guys a few times... this is the Melvins alright.. thanks.
Yeah, they just get better and better!

Mark E. Smiths' The Fall did this since the 80's sometimes.
Believe it or not my first concert was Iron Maiden opening for 38. Special...38 had two full drummers and blew away Iron Maiden.
I still need to see a PIGFACE show...seen everyone else.

The one dislike. Wtf is your problem. This is incredible.
banging my head so hard i give myself a concussion
unreal
This is fucking amazing !!!!
god what i wouldn't give to be there
banging my head so hard i give myself a concussion
Symphony!
It's funny you mention "senile animal". Talking Horse is the song that got me back into the melvins. Appreciate the info. Thanks
hell yes
smashing bass distortion!!!
Kings among men. And they rocked and it was good
God Damn!
Oh yes it is .. I saw the Melvins and met Buzz and Dale .. epic .. I can;t walk after hearing this song .. haha
Supreme
It's just Melvinous!!!
Melvins dont eat the yellow snow!!
