Hit: 5 Stars
There is something really odd about Jello Biafra playing with the Melvins. I've heard the Melvins play with Mike Patton, and Fantomas, and Tool, and even Leif Garret. I have the CDs of Jello playing with NoMeansNo, D.O.A., Lard, Mojo Nixon, and of course The Dead Kennedys. After all that, you'd think I'd be ready for Jello and the Melvins.
On their first album, "Never Breathe What You Can't See", I really enjoyed it, but something seemed strange. Maybe it was hearing the Melvins play fast. Maybe it was trying to hear Jello wrap his voice and lyrics around Buzz and Dale's insane jazz-like sludge metal. Needless to say, the album is still growing on me.
"Seig Howdy", on the other hand, had me from the first note. It opens with an incredible cover of Alice Cooper's "Halo of Flies". Then it melts into some new tracks that just seem to work better, both musically and lyrically, than the previous release. One of my favorite tracks is the hilarious "Those Dumb Punk Kids (Will Buy Anything)", which is a rant on old bands cashing in on kids by having reunion tours with only one or two original members left.
There's also an updated version of the Dead Kennedy's classic "Kalifornia Über Alles" with the lyrics changed to reflect the governator. The album is topped off with some great remixes of songs from the first album performed by people such as Al Jorgenson (Ministry, Lard)and Dalek. Adam Jones (from TOOL) backs up Buzz on guitar for over half the tracks. Finally, to top off my pleasure, the sleeve and inserts were all done by one of my absolutely favorite artists, Camille Rose Garcia.
If you like the first album, get this. If you didn't quite like the first album, you should still get this. I hasn't left my CD player since I bought it!
