These guys have been around for almost 50 years and some consider them the fathers of grunge and sludge metal. I discovered them in the early nineties and have always loved them
@@SlideRSB What do I know? I've just been listening to bands like the Melvins since the early 1980s. That's what I know. The Melvins formed in the early 80s. That's 40, not 50 years of existence. When you don't know the facts it's better to shut up.
@@herbertwest9626 Nah. When someone says something in the comments section that you think is stupid, it's best to keep your own mouth shut. Besides, the OP didn't say 50 years. They said "almost 50 years." 😉
+Ongo Gablogian, Mind you, if not for their straight-edge thingy, they might not have stayed together till today. Melvins have been around for twice my lifetime, and keep getting better. It just reminded me of what Buzz said one one of his Interviews about pot helping with focus: "definitely. First they focus on the TV. Then they focus on the fridge." I'm not against weed in any way, but damn :D Whatever they do, it works well for them. Melvins are a living legend.
This has become my new favorite way of finding new music. I get to listen to my idols pick their favorite music and then go youtube surfing! Thanks Amoeba!
I totally second this. Would love to hear him ramble about the records' history, the labels, the scene and the lack thereof, and whatever else. And he's got some obscure music taste. Though I doubt that he would accept the invite, given his busy schedule.
One of my favorite things about this band is just seeing them interact in side-shit like this, and they all just seem like such good, steadfast friends. With how some of my other favorite bands just melt down and blow apart because of "creative differences", which is usually a euphemism to cover up for bitchmade drama driven by self-interest, it's great to see a group just hang together like this.
I love how normal and nice they are to each other. 😅I was expecting some sort of obscure world music and we got mainly the Stones, the Runaways and Miles Davis. 🤘🏻
@@pashadyne that's not surprising. They come from the punk scene, not really metalheads apart from liking a few bands, from what I've gleaned from interviews anyway.
@@pashadyne I know what kind of bands MA includes and excludes. Melvins were always a metal band with a small 'm' to me, i.e., there's metal in there but it's just one element among many. I'd be willing to bet that Buzz doesn't listen to much metal outside of Sabbath, 70s Priest, maybe a little Motorhead, I think he's mentioned Celtic Frost/Hellhammer and Venom too. Maybe Voivod. Basically, the metal bands that punk dudes listened to in the 80s. I highly doubt he listens to too much thrash on the regular or any death or black metal for that matter.
btw, plenty of metalheads who are into doom like Candlemass, Solitude Aeturnus and Trouble don't really give a fuck about the Melvins lol. Some do but generally more 'traditional' metal guys aren't listening to them much.
One of my all-time favorite memories: going to Disneyland on a whim with some friends to give the place a go on acid and ending up in a long ass line for Space Mountain with Buzz Osborne in a Blondie t-shirt to keep us company and pass the time. It’s quite a story. And he’s right on about “On the Corner.”
Always appreciate What's In My Bag, but this edition is particularly awesome; love how they geek out over the early Stones stuff...seem like nice guys who'd be fun to hang out with.
These guys from the Melvins and J Mascis are giving me a load of hope lately because they're punk/hardcore guys who loved the Rolling Stones. I don't see many people, especially my age (22) who dig the Stones like me, and think it's as good as punk rock. Exile is my fav too Buzz!!
Although it’s been 5 years I’m currently 21 and I love the stones and Beatles and just about everything punk/hardcore. Absolutely love the Melvins and Dinosaur Jr (mainly the 1st 3 records). I listen to just about everything though…
Buzzo looks like the old lady who played the receptionist at the trailer park in No Country For Old Men who almost got killed by Anton Chiggur and didn't quite realize it before being saved by a toilet flush.
On the Corner is probably one of Miles Davis most controversial records and considering how many experiments records he made in his later period, That's saying something.
I bought it after seeing Ron Mael of Sparks recommend it in a copy of Mojo and it really didn't disappoint, the intro is amazing and all the jazz critics hated it.
When I used to work at the Virgin Megastore on Sunset Boulevard, Buzz would come in from time to time. One evening I asked if he could recommend something to me. He recommended On The Corner. I bought it that evening- It was/ is awesome!! Thanks Buzz!!
When the Ty Segall clip started, I immediately thought: 'those drums sound like Albini recorded them' and then Dale confirmed it. So distinct drum sound, I love it.
I’ve actually seen Buzz shopping at Ameoba in Hollywood several times. I used to live a few blocks away, so I was a regular. I never talked to Buzz but always wanted to check out what he was picking up!
that would be so weird to go to a Elton John concert and realize you are sitting next to Buzz Osborne. whoever those people were have a cool story to tell
Can't believe that by the time it ended I wanted to see more and more haha ! love these guys so humble so fucking talented and with such a good taste for music and movies :D new King Congo fan right here (his solo stuff)

Without their legendary 80s stuff, Nirvana would not have had a style to get famous from.
These guys have been around as a band for about 40 years. They started in the early 1980s. Don't make them older than they are.

David Byrne on this show would be one of the best things that happened to internet ever.
Janek Przyyłowski yes!
It would be like "60 Minutes" on acid, but even better.
How can you not love Buzz and the Melvins?
Can you feel my love buzz?
@Lucas Russi hahaha I was just about to say the same thing
Man, you can really tell these guys are best buds. Legends!
Melvins were like the 3 stoner dudes in high school that everyone knew but never really talked to
Best description of them TBH
stoners gone straight edge, I gotta say.
Brody Armstrice True. Still, gotta love Melvins.

except Kurt Cobain Dave Ghrol and Krist talked to them a lot and Kurt Idolized them.
I met Buzz as a teen outside of Amoeba in 2003. He had just bought a bunch of VHS tapes. Such a down to earth, easy to talk to guy.
unlike Dave Ghrol.
can you shut the fuck up
0satanisboring0 you were a teen in 2003?!?! fuck im old..
its true
whats wrong with dave "ghrol"
This has become my new favorite way of finding new music. I get to listen to my idols pick their favorite music and then go youtube surfing! Thanks Amoeba!
same!
Steve Albini would be AMAZING on this show
I totally second this. Would love to hear him ramble about the records' history, the labels, the scene and the lack thereof, and whatever else. And he's got some obscure music taste. Though I doubt that he would accept the invite, given his busy schedule.
yeah do that
If there's one comment on RUclips that needs to be acknowledged, it's definitely this one! Steve Albini is a must
Abso-fucking-lutely!!!!!!
Albini would just put stuff in his sack to insult.

Agreed. So evidently the best of friends.
I love how normal and nice they are to each other. 😅I was expecting some sort of obscure world music and we got mainly the Stones, the Runaways and Miles Davis. 🤘🏻
damn, Buzz is a generous cat. Just an all round good dude
J Beckmann except they aren't purchased because they're still in the security cases?
@@TheRoroCuz Pretty sure they're still inside Amoeba while filming this, so they haven't hit the register on the way out yet.
hmm
"Oh wait, we forgot to get Black Sabbath!" :D :D :D
Gill Salty They probably have all their albums and have bought them 3,4,5 times each.
4 sure!lol

@@MidWestWaters345 ok no. Fckin 1 fan of nirvana...
@@nicholasalexopoulos1332Wasn’t Kurt Cobain friends with Buzz?

This show is so incredible! some of the episodes just hit me in an emotional way and this is one of them. so many good picks
Thanks so much for the feedback. We love making the show and this episode in particular was a great one to work on.
What's in my bag is the best thing on RUclips.
Hey, thanks!
Love it!
spacewurm C'mon now, no need to turn a nice comment thread to shit with politics. Especially American politics.
George Hancock Jr. binge watching the crap out of em
I'm beginning to agree....

sounds fake but i really wanna believe it at the same time
Jakob Martin I don’t give a flying fuck what you want to believe.
This goes to 0 to 100 really fucking quick
We need Mike Patton
Yesss
I've seen & been in the record shop Mike Patton loves in London, along Portobello Rd. Fuckin awesome place.
@@andrewphippsphillips1455 What's the shop's name?
"Hey Mike what's in your bag?"

"And... I bought for Dale" "Awwwww"
I saw the melvins play live in 1990, they were awesome. I saw them play again in 2010, and they were amazing. How many bands can do that?
Definetly one of my favorites from the serie. Lots of great advices and knowledge!
A tribute to Jack Johnson is my favourite Miles Davis album. Kudos to you.
I'm a simple man. I see amoeba "What's in My Bag" & The Melvins, I click like.
Also shout out to On The Corner. Highly underrated.
are you fucking kidding me thats so overrated
solomonophonic Why do you think that?
Are you saying On The Corner is overrated?
simpleton. not simple man.
Love how miles Davis pops in this series, no matter the type of artist and music they make

Good music ALWAYS holds up....
Just discovered these guys now I can’t stop watching and listening to everything them!
Rockers really dig jazz, which makes me so happy
That was awesome. I love the Melvins.
Kurt Cobain loved these guys.
Yea, sad to see one of their biggest fan passing away before they passed.
Kurt was in a band with Dale Crover before he started Nirvana called "Fecal Matter", he also produced some of the "Houdini" album.
@Kasey Nicholson how?
Pretty sure everyone knows that
@Kasey Nicholson king buzzo is a twat
Dale Crover currently my favorite drummer!
Melvins are so freaking cool
I been listening to them for so long
It´s amazing! Big hug from Brazil!
I love the fact that the melvins are huge fans of the stones😊
Glad the Melvins are still rocking. Seen em a few times in Denver. Always a good show.
Wow the Kid Congo record and Savoy Motel record sound really awesome would love to listen to them.
This is the best episode I’ve seen. These guys are great
I can't believe how normal these guys seem! They blew my mind at The Pony recently. Awesome show.
This introduced me to Ty Segall and The Lemon Twigs. Thank u Melvins!! 😊 Melvins are the best!
What a great amount of music!!! Such a cool band👏👏❤
Wonderful choices, all of them :)!
That Steve Albini footage is beautiful
Steve's reccomendation on Kid Congo and the Pink Monkey Birds album changed my life. AMAZING!
please please i mean PLEASSSE invite Butthole Surfers!!
Michał Szeremeta I second this
Michał Szeremeta i third this
Michał Szeremeta I 69th this
I one hundred million people are dead this.
I millionth this movement
Love these guys. Stones, Kid Congo, Miles Davis, couldna be better!!
Buzzo looks like the old lady who played the receptionist at the trailer park in No Country For Old Men who almost got killed by Anton Chiggur and didn't quite realize it before being saved by a toilet flush.
The hell? No he doesnt
He looks more like Patty/Selma Bouvier.
That's very specific
This time: cool people on the show. Excellent!
Get Jim Jarmusch on the show, please!!
YES!!!
Fucking yes.
feel sorry I can only like this once...
Hell fucking yess!!
The fact that Buzz is a Flannery O'Connor fan makes me love him even more... What a dude!
criminally underrated dude and talent! Not many bands that churn out so much music, and so much good music!! Absolute respect \m/
What’re you talking about? Underrated who?
Ahh that was a nice moment when he bought the film for his friend. Buds! Cool guys
The way I saw these guys tear up Vancouver last summer, you'd never expect them to be this down to earth.
4:50 - On the corner!!!! I still listen to that every week.... haha
On the Corner is probably one of Miles Davis most controversial records and considering how many experiments records he made in his later period, That's saying something.
It's cool how it inspired a lot of other artists. In particular artists in the Post-Punk genre like The Pop Group and This Heat.
I bought it after seeing Ron Mael of Sparks recommend it in a copy of Mojo and it really didn't disappoint, the intro is amazing and all the jazz critics hated it.
When I used to work at the Virgin Megastore on Sunset Boulevard, Buzz would come in from time to time. One evening I asked if he could recommend something to me. He recommended On The Corner. I bought it that evening- It was/ is awesome!! Thanks Buzz!!
Living Abstraction I could literally listen to Its About That Time on In A Silent Way forever. Makes me glad I've lived.
It’s insane how many masterpieces Miles made.
On the Corner...aww hell yeah!
These guys are really knowledgeable. Great to watch.
Melvins are my favorite band to see live. They blow it up!!
these guys are total og's
When the Ty Segall clip started, I immediately thought: 'those drums sound like Albini recorded them' and then Dale confirmed it. So distinct drum sound, I love it.
Melvin are so awesome
That Miles Davis “On the Block” record rules. Definitely better than the rest captures the true sound of the streets.
Bless this episode
I saw these guys at Bumbershoot in Seattle in 2018. I have only heard of them and saw them randomly with my group of friends. Awesome show from them!
Saw 'em play an in-store at Amoeba Hollywood...Dale totally channeled his inner Cubby and CRUSHED a Jr. sized drum kit. One of the best ever.
Wow! Never expected this. Thanks, Amoeba!
I’ve actually seen Buzz shopping at Ameoba in Hollywood several times. I used to live a few blocks away, so I was a regular. I never talked to Buzz but always wanted to check out what he was picking up!
This is the video that first exposed me to Melvins, I love them now
Yes folks, Buzzo's carpet really does match the drapes.
2:43 Came here after hearing about Charlie’s passing. “Never doubt Charlie!”
Me too. Rest in peace, Charlie.
even if i don't like the pics i can listen to buzzo talk for hours
This is absolutely perfect.
Steve McDonald is a legend to me.
So so so happy Melvins know good music! 🎺
When people devote their lives to something pure and meaningful ❤️
King buzzo rocks and he'll always rock-hard he's the king
that bit is in the james brown movie too. great to see the source for this. thank man. I always find something when I watch these.
I can't wait for episode with Steven Wilson
He is for sure going to be in an episode?
You know he's gonna buy at least one Pink Floyd record 😂
Love this episode! Melvins + Amoeba 😍
How cool 😎 this band is! Love ❤️ it!
I live this band !
got Moonage Daydream stuck in my head now
I love The Melvin's
really knowledgeable guys, impressed.
Best episode ever!
1000% agree with Dale that Sticky Fingers is the best Stones album.
Wow I like them even more after this. Probably the best one of these I've seen.
that would be so weird to go to a Elton John concert and realize you are sitting next to Buzz Osborne. whoever those people were have a cool story to tell
love buzz and the gang - you guys always have the best concerts !! You have never seen these guys... go !
I was listening to a Melvins album when I saw this video pop up on my subscription box, Nude With Boots to be precise.
Excellent millesime.
God damn Billy Fish. Tune.
Nafureanu Dan what Melvin's album
"Nude With Boots", he said it ;)
Nude with Boots
A smile sat on my face when i saw buzzo's smile in the thumbnail
Can't believe that by the time it ended I wanted to see more and more haha ! love these guys so humble so fucking talented and with such a good taste for music and movies :D new King Congo fan right here (his solo stuff)
i love discovering all this in these videos
These guys are hilarious. Great dudes!
Rolling Stones, hmmm, i might have to check them out. Thanks Buzz.
I came for the hair, stayed for the awesome musical knowledge.
so much gold in them bags. THANKS
Anything with Rolling Stones interests me.
Nice! Excelllent! Love the band and their choice.
Generous Buzz.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS
