Yep! I play bass and guitar about equally these days, and I use to use old Sunn amps and loved them, but they were always blowing up. Techs hate repairing 40 year old caps in solid state amps, so this was definitely a better route.

Guitar player for the Melvins, Fantomas and a smattering of other things. Kinda marches to his own beat. Boyhood pals with Kurt Cobain (and introduced Dave Grohl to him and Novoselic after the current Foo Fighters' frontman band back then, Scream, broke up). Influenced A LOT of Sludge/Stoner/Doom bands. As I distinctly remember of a goon posting itt: The fact that he was willing to install a neck pickup in the bridge position and only roll with that for his main sound influenced a lot of people's sounds.

He's not really a technician but I think terrible is a bit far. Suffered a bit lately because he can come across as generic slude guy #5 whereas he was really the first guy to go for that stuff and everyone else is biting him.

Yeah, I've never been a big fan, but I was blown away to learn that Lysol predates Dopesmoker by seven years.

Co-signing this, I was only a casual listener of a couple of their albums the first time I saw them and my jaw was dropped the entire time.

All slow and heavy music has passed through the "Melvins influence duodenum" at some point.

edit: Lysol comes out in '92. Earth's album Earth 2 comes out a year later in February '93 and sets up this whole SunnO))) ambient doom thing we've been doing for 30 years.

Back when I downloaded porn and didn’t stream it I used to keep it in a folder labelled Dream Theater - Discography on the basis that no one I respected would ever look in it.

Is very snow-broth;
One who never feels
The wanton stings and
Motions of the sense



Oh poo poo I just looked up the first time I saw the Melvins at cbgb’s in 1990 and the whole show is on YouTube :swoon: so cool to see again, I was on some good acid that night

Same energy, basically. :cawg:

Let's be honest: Their first 2 (maybe 3, since the 3 or so singles off of that were sorta decent?), records were basically comfort junk food. Every other thing they have released whether as the Strokes or through side/solo/spin-off projects has been for the most part irredeemably boring
