seit ihrem deb?talbum gluey porch treatments von 1987 haben die melvins einiges gewagt: musikalische konzepte erweitert, ungew¸hnliche kollaborationen riskiert, genre-grenzen stets neu definiert. aber an eines haben sie sich bis dato nicht herangetraut: das format des doppelalbums! kein wunder also, wenn buzz osborne, der kopf der melvins, hier von einem neuen ma?stab spricht. das werk wartet mit wunderbaren g§sten auf, so haben sich joey santiago (the pixies), teri gender bender (le butcherettes/crystal fairy) und anna waronker (that dog) an den aufnahmen beteiligt. ist der erste part noch alternative-rock melvin scher pr§gung, widmet sich der zweite teil weit experimentelleren klangwelten, die gleichzeitig den soundtrack zu a walk with love and death von jesse nieminen bilden.
