Our Take
Our Take
The Melvins, those pioneers of sludge metal and alternative rock, have compiled their early works in the new box set "At The Stake: Atlantic Recordings 1993-1996." This clamshell box is a treasure trove for die-hard fans and a fascinating glimpse into the band's evolution for newcomers.
The collection kicks off with the band's major-label debut, "Houdini," which features classics like "Honey Bucket" and "Joan of Arc." The raw power and heavy riffs that the Melvins are known for are on full display here, making it a must-listen for any self-respecting rock enthusiast.
Moving on to "Stoner Witch" and "Stag," the experimental side of the Melvins comes to the forefront. These albums showcase the band's willingness to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories, with tracks like "Sweet Willy Rollbar" and "Bar-X-The Rocking M" standing out as highlights.
But it's the bonus material in this box set that truly shines. Demos, B-sides, and unreleased tracks give us a glimpse into the creative process of the Melvins, showing us just how much thought and experimentation goes into their music.
Overall, "At The Stake: Atlantic Recordings 1993-1996" is a must-have for any Melvins fan. It's a wild ride through the band's early years, showcasing their talent, creativity, and sheer love for all things heavy. So grab a copy, crank up the volume, and prepare to be blown away by the sheer force of the Melvins.

About the artist
Melvins
MELVINS, the iconic American rock band hailing from Washington State, have been causing a ruckus in the music scene since the early 1980s. Led by the enigmatic Buzz Osborne, known for his wild shock of hair and piercing vocals, and accompanied by the thunderous drumming of Dale Crover, this duo has created a sound that is as heavy as it is mesmerizing. With a discography that spans over three decades, MELVINS have consistently pushed the boundaries of what it means to be a rock band. From their early, gritty releases like "Gluey Porch Treatments" to their more experimental albums such as "Stoner Witch," the band has never shied away from trying new things and challenging their audience. One thing that sets MELVINS apart from their peers is their ever-changing lineup, with a revolving door of bassists and additional members keeping things fresh and interesting. This constant evolution has led to a sound that is as unpredictable as it is powerful, with each new release offering a different take on the band's signature sludgy rock sound. Despite their ferocious onstage presence, MELVINS have a playful sense of humour that shines through in their music. Whether it's their quirky album titles or their tongue-in-cheek lyrics, the band knows how to have fun while still delivering hard-hitting music. In a world that is constantly evolving, MELVINS remain a constant force in the world of rock music. With their unapologetically heavy sound and their fearless approach to experimentation, this band shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Keep an eye on MELVINS, because you never know what they'll do next.
