It’s Psychedelic Baby Speaks With Melvins’ Buzz Osborne

It’s Psychedelic Baby says the new Melvins LP Thunderball “feels like a fresh tremor from a band that has long operated on its own frequency. For Buzz Osborne, it’s a recalibration to their enduring, almost accidental genesis. This is a band that, four decades in, still manages to sound like nothing else, avoiding nostalgia by simply being too busy to look back.” The site has a nice, long interview with Osborne about the album and much more. That’s here.
