Review

Alternative Press (p.194) - "[L]ead Melvins Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover haven't just reconnected with their early roar; they've added welcome new layers of excess to it: More groove, more brutality, more melody and more wonderfully gratuitous percussion."
The Wire (p.59) - "Both stalwart Dale Crover and Coady Willis play drums, and the double kit rumble is one of the album's defining sonic tropes....A SENILE ANIMAL is the sound of a group -- past, present and future."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.58) - "Always ones to smash expectations, The Melvins have actually turned in their most straight-up rock album since 1994's STONER WITCH."

Title Note

The Melvins: King Buzzo (vocals, guitar); Jared Warren (vocals, bass instrument); Dale Crover, Coady Willis (vocals, drum).

The early 2000s found the Melvins engaging in all manner of loud/heavy experiments, some considerably more enjoyable than others. On 2006's (A) SENILE ANIMAL, however, the long-running avant-metal ensemble return to its classic roots. Band mainstays Dale Crover (drums) and Buzz Osborne (vocals/guitar) are joined here by Pacific Northwest bass/drums power duo Big Business, and the results are devastating.

Crover is a brutal enough drummer on his own, but the addition of Coady Willis on a second kit both increases the power of the assault and keeps things curiously off-kilter; Jared Warren's bass is all rumbling fuzz and punch and provides an impressive platform for Crover's art-metal riffage; and the multilayered vocals make the whole thing that much more colossal. The Melvins have always been something of a grab bag, and while it's a safe bet to expect something interesting, it's a pleasure to be awarded something this unrelentingly awesome.
