Dat bass doe. The Melvins are all about it. That’s why they’ve got six different bass players on their new album, Basses Loaded.
Nirvana’s Krist Novoselic, Redd Kross’ Steve McDonald, Butthole Surfers’ J.D. Pinkus, Big Business’ Jared Warren, Mr. Bungle/Fantomas’ Trevor Dunn (aka Melvins Lite) … they’ve all joined Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover for songs that are featured on the 12-track album.
Here’s their new track “Hideous Woman.”
Basses Loaded comes out June 3rd through Ipecac Recordings.
