Description

The Melvins release a lot of records. A lot. Having said that The album (A) Senile Animal that is will stand up as one of the best of their career. (A) Senile Animal was recorded in Hollywood and as you may or may not know. The Melvins have been through a lot this last year: wars, drugs, impeachment but they never lost sight of what was important AND what was festering in their bowels. Once again the Melvins have “started over” with two, count em TWO, new members, Coady Willis and Jared Warren from the Seattle band Big Business. And there it is my friends. One thing you can be sure of is this (A) Senile Animal album is really really great and it really works! It’s ten songs long and is most likely the best album they or anyone else will put out this year or any previous year or ever probably. They have double everything this time. Double drums. Double, triple and even quadruple vocals, double bass and guitar… Well, not really double bass and guitar but… Well sort of double bass and guitar but in order to explain how that works we would have to get into a lot of technical mumbo jumbo that even we don’t understand so let’s just leave it at the double drums. Double Drums everybody!
