Biafra, Jello With The Melvins

Alternative Tentacles

***BACK IN STOCK!!!! Note new price. Like WW I had its WW II and the Gulf War had its Iraqi Freedom, you can't expect an event of epic proportions to end without proper follow-through: hence, Alternative Tentacles presents the second installment from JELLO BIAFRA and the MELVINS! "Never Breathe What You Can't See" (2004) fed the world, in alternating fistfuls, the MELVINS' sonic brutality and BIAFRA's erudite lyrical jesting--and the world cried for more. Sieg Howdy features songs recorded during the Never Breathe... sessions, as well as remixes by AL JOURGENSEN (MINISTRY, LARD), DALEK, and DALE CROVER (MELVINS). And you know that BIAFRA, the consummate record collector, would not even think of releasing another record unless it's good enough to stand on its own! It doesn't matter if you missed the boat the first time or if you couldn't get enough, the dominion of JELLO BIAFRA and the MELVINS is far from over: be prepared yet again to let the most twisted minds in rock detonate your mind.

Biafra, Jello With The Melvins

Never Breathe What You Can't See

Alternative Tentacles

The story began when the Melvins approached Jello Biafra with a proposal born of disgust at the shameless Dead Kennedys cash-in reunion tour. Their counteroffer? A tag-team assault on the American Way of Life, with the Melvins backing Jello on a tour of Dead Kennedys material. Jello had a better idea: rather than exhume the past, why not write something new? And just like that, a whole new beast crawled out of the primordial punk-rock swamp. The result is Never Breathe What You Can’t See, an album that brings together the distinctive strengths of both camps without sounding like a retread of either. Sound-wise it’s half way between Lard and Dead Kennedys and a fresh reminder that neither age nor experience has done a damn thing to tame Jello Biafra and the Melvins.
