While it is odd, it is also one of the more compelling intros to a Melvins song and is one of the better tracks on the record. It's atleast a 4. The atmosphere shifts around enough to make things interesting and some of the ideas are diverting too. Mercyful Fate - Melissa. You have to be logged in to post a comment. While not the best of compliments, that's all I really can say about this record. Although this is probably for the best seeing as a large part of mainstream music is described best in one word "crap", not the best of words but that's what it is and if you turned on the radio or MTV, you'll most likely see why.

AcidCaravan July 30th Comments. While I highly recommend you give that record a listen that is if you enjoy Metal or the Melvins I can't really say the same about this.
One can also see that 'Let It All Be' and 'Prig' take up nearly half of the running time between them, the first track lasting almost 11 minutes and the last stretching out before including the hidden preview of the Boolticker cover.
The mellow Psychedelia sound of this record is the shit. While It makes a new refreshing sound for the band, it also makes the overall music more boring.

Then again, I guess with Melvins' discography, it would be difficult to find one recording that can sum up their basic principles, if they even have any at all.

It remains quiet for the whole duration, playing around with palm-muted clean guitar, botlicker hummable basslines, and gentle drumming that uses the hi-hat plenty. Nevermind, figured it out.

It's easy to see at a glance that there are a few throwaway songs lurking among the nine tracks, especially 'Toy' and 'We We', which are each about a minute long, while 'Jew Boy Flower Head' makes poor use of much more time by refusing to move on from a couple of simple ideas.

Tweet user ratings After that track we are over the halfway point of this record where I tend to lose interest, "Mary Lady Bobby Kins" is yet another farely dull track, while not bad it doesn't really bring any interest to the album as well. Best viewed without Internet Explorer, in x resolution or higher. On 7 Music Lists. Give it a listen if you like the Melvins but you may not be happy with the result.
My feeling about the album is that the three-piece chose certain instrumental settings and made the best songs they could using those constraints, which results in an unmistakeable identity, though not a lot of creative freedom or room for variety. This is supposed to be part of trilogy, though I don't think there's much to link it to the other releases except that it ends with a short sample of 'Smells Like Teen Spirit', which is the opening track on The Crybaby - supposedly instalment three in the series.
The maggot is the only album out of the trilogy thats really worth putting on The 2nd installment in this album trilogy while sometimes entertaining is for the most part, sub-par and should only be looked at if your a die-hard Melvins fan. It should be alright now, i'll probably put it into MS Word and do a spell check just in case later. Bands alphabetical country genre Labels alphabetical country Reviews R.

The song isn't a complete loss as it starts off well but it literally seems like it's stuck on repeat as it preety much doesn't change rhythm for the entire song. The Melvins have been a large part of the underground grunge scene since the late 80's and while over the years they have been signed to a major label, the Melvins have melvons to break through to the mainstream. Following records have disappointed as well although the last record " A Senile Animal" is one of their best bet due in part to having the member's of "Big Business" another favorite band of mine join them.
It's atleast a 4. Inveigh April 2nd Comments.
