The Melvins have a new DVD out soon, and its called Across The USA in 51 Days. It will be available via Ipecac Recordings on November 13, 2015. Here’s a description:
In 2012 the Melvins set a world record by traveling around the USA, playing all 50 states plus Washington DC in 51 days! This proves it. This DVD is a record of their travel shot entirely on mobile phones. It highlights scenes from their massively successful world record setting tour.
There’s no trailer or anything yet, but if one gets posted I’ll put it up on Fourtheye.
Don’t confuse this DVD with the other Melvins movie coming out – The Colossus of Destiny: A Melvins Tale. Apparently this is coming along nicely, but I don’t think there’s any release date just yet.
