Ultimate Classic Rock Hails The “Chaotic Noise” Of The New Melvins LP
Ultimate Classic Rock says that, on Melvins’ new album Tarantula Heart, “Buzz Osborne leads the band – this time featuring Ministry drummer Roy Mayorga and guitarist Gary Chester from Austin psych-rockers We Are the Asteroid – through some of the most rhythmic tracks of their nearly four-decade career. But chaotic noise rock remains Melvins’ Priority No.1. ‘Working the Ditch’ and ‘Allergic to Food’ play loose with a familiar template, albeit one with additional muscle thanks to a second drummer. This many years on, Melvins are still finding new ways to display their venerable sludge.” Read the full review here.
Out now from Ipecac Recordings, Tarantula Heart is going for radio spins.
