Anyway, I Think you should check out THE COWS when you get a chance. THey are not like the Melvins but they are great.

Years ago one of my hobbies was making road tapes (mix tapes) to listen to in the car and one time I decided to make a scary/insane themed tape, for whatever reason. The peak of the tape was TAD "Wood Goblins" segueing into a Sebadoh song I don't remember the title of (it was off of a 7" and it was a folksy ditty about the thing that lived in the cornfield and ended with a spooky monologue, in an ever deepening voice, on the nature of magic) and that segued into The Cows "Almost a God." Pure gibbering insanity!

The Cows were a very unusual band. Are they still around? I've got some Melvins but not enough. Mostly singles. I'm gonna check out those recommendations as well. Thanks.
