Smells Like Infinite Sadness Applauds Melvins’ “Weird, Loud” Album Thunderball

Smells Like Infinite Sadness notes that new Melvins LP  “Thunderball arrives under the Melvins 1983 banner, a throwback variant featuring original drummer Mike Dillard. Osborne is joined by noise artists Void Mane and Ni MaÎtres. The result is a five-track effort that feels like a celebration of the band’s DNA, from its origins to the present day… At just under 30 minutes, Thunderball is compact but bursting with ideas. It’s weird, it’s loud, it’s unmistakably Melvins, and who can ask for more than that.”
