Product Info 4LP : Coloured Vinyl [Released 08/04/2022] More Info The Melvins announce their most ambitious project yet: Five Legged Dog (Oct. 15, Ipecac Recordings), a 36-song new ly recorded, acoustic collection featuring a career-spanning collection of songs, from 1987’s Gluey Porch Treatments to 2017’s A Walk With Love & Death, the entire gamut of the legendary band’s catalogue is represented. “I knew I wanted to do something ridiculously big,” explains Buzz Osborne of the band’s first ever acoustic offering. ”36 songs reimagined by us acoustically is certainly ridiculous but it works. The magic of the songs is still there regardless of it being acoustic. Since we weren’t touring we had the time to do something of this size. I’m very excited about this record. Dale and Steven did a fantastic job on this. I think it’s a very special record. I can’t think of anyone else who’s done something like this.” Five Legged Dog also features acoustic versions of several rarities from the influential band’s overflowing discography including a cover of Redd Kross’ “Charlie” (from the limited-edition “Escape From LA” single), “Outside Chance,” a Turtles’ cover from the “Slithering Slaughter” single and new interpretations of The Rolling Stones “Sway,” Brainiac’s “Flypaper,” and Fred Neil’s “Everybody’s Talking” (popularised by Harry Nilsson). Butthole Surfer Jeff Pinkus lends his vocals (and banjo) to “Don’t Forget to Breathe” and “Everybody’s Talking.” Tracklist Edgar The Elephant (A Walk With Love & Death) Up The Dumper (The Bootlicker) Hung Bunny/Roman Dog Bird (Lysol) Hooch (Houdini) Billy Fish (Nude With Boots) Shevil (Stoner Witch) Charlie (Redd Kross cover from “Escape From LA” single) A Growing Disgust (Freak Puke) Eye Flys/Woman (Gluey Porch Treatments – “Woman” is a Free cover) Pitfalls In Serving Warrants (Honky) Outside Chance (The Turtles cover from “Slithering Slaughter” single) Evil New War God (The Bride Screamed Murder) The Bloated Pope (Pigs of the Roman Empire) Bad Move (from Dale Crover’s solo album, The Fickle Finger of Fate) With Teeth (Lysol) Halo of Flies (Alice Cooper cover from Sieg Howdy!)
