According to Blair, a very limited edition (only 100 copies) of The Melvins latest album The Bride Screamed Murder featuring artwork by Adam will go on sale here sometime tonight.  No word on what time it will be, so I expect you guys will spam the site and bring it down soon! 

Good luck to potential buyers, limit is one per customer, and from memory the albums cost US$50 each plus postage and handling (though I could be wrong).

Update: The Album is on sale now, though I expect will sell out relatively soon…
Update 2: All sold out now. Were available for about 3 hours from around 5:00pm Australian Eastern Time and sold out some time around 8pm…

The Melvins release limited The Bride Screamed Murder vinyl

The Melvins, together with Amphetamine Reptile records have released a series of vinyl printed for the bands latest release The Bride Screamed Murder.  Here’s the blurb:

You’ve been asking for ‘em & you got it. Up for sale is the brand new Melvins vinyl LP for their "The Bride Screamed Murder" album.

The pressing on this LP was limited to just 1000 copies & are in white vinyl that splattered with red/orange/yellow streaks. To make things even more special, 10 artists were commissioned to create artwork for the letterpress print that’s affixed to the back of the sleeve with each design being limited to just 100 copies.

The three released so far all look pretty cool, and can be viewed at the Amrep website.  Here’s my personal favorite:

 

If I had $50 spare I’d be grabbing one, unfortunately a recent tour by a well known band has drained my account!  Stocks are limited so don’t delay!

The Melvins Samples on Amazon

According to a recent Twitter post (Thanks to StubbaDub for the tip), Amazon has 30 second samples from each of the tracks on the forthcoming Melvins album The Bride Screamed Murder.  According to the site the tracklist should be:

  1. The Water Glass
  2. Evil New War God
  3. Pig House
  4. I’ll Finish You Off
  5. Electric Flower
  6. Hospital Up
  7. Inhumanity And Death
  8. My Generation
  9. P.G. x 3

I listened to them all, and they sound great to me.  While it is a little hard to tell with only 30 second clips, this sounds better than Nude With Boots to me.

According to an article on Limewire, the forthcoming Melvins tour will include dates with Isis, and for those shows without Isis, the Melvins will play two sets.  Not sure which one I’d be more interested in to be honest:

The Melvins may have just recently had their 25th band birthday, but they’re showing no signs of slowing down. They’ll be supporting The Bride Screamed Murderall over the country in June and July, sharing bills with alt-metallists ISIS and Totimoshi, including an appearance at Bonnaroo, so there are plenty of chances for you to get Melvined this summer.
