More dates are currently pending. The bulk of the U.S. dates are expected to be alongside the Melvins.

When a clearer list of dates confirming The Melvins’ appearances I will post it.  In the meantime this should help those interested get excited…

According to Blabbermouth, The Melvins will be touring with the band Down (featuring that douchebag from Pantera) in August and September this year.  The article mentions “select U.S. markets” so I’m guessing it won’t be an extensive tour, probably just the larger cities.  Dates will be posted once I get them.

King Buzzo from the Melvins has recorded another interview/guitar lesson with MetalKult.  As usual it’s a great interview, especially if you dig Buzz’s sense of humour.  He also dishes out advice on how to play Houdini tracks Honeybucket and Hooch.

Rumour has it on the Melvins BBS that The Melvins could be touring with Down in the US later this year.
