the melvins

See which albums rocked our 2021.

The Melvins will perform ahead of a Noise Pop screening of their 'The Colossus of Destiny' documentary.

The Melvins have booked a late summer tour in support of their 'Basses Loaded' album and they've unleashed their new Beatles cover 'I Want To Tell You.'

In a recent interview, Buzz Osborne not only backs up his critical review of 'Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck', but goes into further detail about why he wrote it.

The Melvins are giving fans a taste of new music, unveiling 'Brass Cupcake' and issuing 'Bride of Crankenstein' on iTunes.

"We figured it was time for us to do something REALLY crazy," said Osborne...

Next Tuesday, grungy metal lifers the Melvins drop 'The Bulls and the Bees,' a five-song EP that will be available for free download via Scion A/V.

"When I was a kid, my best friend's dad scared me off metal with stories of Kiss eating feces off the floor and Ozzy Osbourne drinking buckets of communal spit and puppy blood," Hall told Noisecreep...

This past week, metal releases came out of the woodwork. And with it came eye-popping first week numbers and even a top 10 debut. Reported by the folks at Metal Insider, this past week drew in a #35 debut for the good guys in Shadows Fall with their latest album 'Retribution,' Porucipine Tree came in with 17,500 albums sold in its first week, and the MVP of metal of course goes to long time thrash
