 after nearly 25 years, the Melvins are at the top of their game July 11, 2008
i am a huge Melvins fan, and those like me have seen them go through different incarnations (and bass players). this line-up of original members King Buzzo and Dale Crover along with the fellas from Big Business is hard rocking, vocally and harmonically intriguing, but still the Melvins. i have my list of favorite Melvins' albums, and this one ranks up at the top - some of their best work. they have always been the band (like mr. bungle) that you either get or you don't - they have always done "their own thing", so it's often difficult to turn friends on to their music. this is one of their albums that your friends and first-time Melvins listeners might actually GET.
pretty darned good July 30, 2008
I'm picky as hell with Melvins albums,and while this one is much like the last one,it is markably more catchy--which is both good and bad.It's more commercially-friendly,but it IS still a Melvins album after all so it sounds better than EVERYTHING on "hard rock/metal" radio today.I'd say get it if you're alreaqdy a fan,or it would make a good intro cause of it's accessability!
Melvins have never been better August 13, 2008
The newest Melvins release, Nude With Boots is damn good.
In 2006, the Melvins added the rhythm section of Coady Willis on drums and Jared Warren on bass and vocals with the release of A Senile Animal. This rhythm section along with Jared's contribution to vocals was a great addition to the Melvins sound. It was a ballsy and raw record but at the same time, the most precise and focused Melvins record I have ever heard. I saw them on that tour before I heard the album and was blown away!
Nude With Boots is an extension of A Senile Animal that refines their sound even further. It has some fine playing, and songs covering a variety of styles without getting too weird.
I have liked the Melvins for a long time but on most of their releases, I wish there was a little less experimental or ambient type stuff. The songs on the new disc are hard rocking, cohesive and cool. Don't worry old Melvins fans, even being a little less weird, it is still undeniably a Melvins record. Nobody sounds like them. I personally hope they keep pushing in this direction.
new melvins rocks August 30, 2008
this new melvins cd took a few listens to get into but like other melvins albums,senile animal,the maggot,when you start to get it it keeps getting better and better.not as metalish as the forementioned,it`s nice to hear something that isn`t so generic you get bored with it easily.I enjoy this about the melvins last few albums,It seems to me that hanging with mike patton has turned buzzo into a riff master that somehow can take simple metal riffs shake them around a little and make them sound fresh. my biggest beef with metal bands today is that they are all playing the same song,this new melvins album brings some freshness to a stale genre.buy this and enjoy!
Rock'n roll soul September 1, 2008
Well, just raw underground rock'n'roll. Savage energy, can tell those guys have influenced many now successful bands. Clever music and irresistible riffs, grooves, album. Don't miss this little beast, you'll probably become addicted to it, like me.
