Album Review: Melvins - Everybody Loves Sausages

Bob Baker Fish

Even when they're trying to be sincere Melvins take the piss.

More Melvins Melvins Profile

It's a covers album, and possibly the least commercial covers album imaginable. Track two is their sickly saccharine version of Best Friend by Queen, Mark Arm (Mudhoney) warbles and drones as only he can on The Scientists' Set It On Fire. Blondie's Clem Burke drops in to add some drums to a punked-up Attitude from The Kinks and Jello Biafra messes with Roxy Music's In Every Dream Home A Heartache. That's comedy right there. In fact this whole album is one big joke. Even when they're trying to be sincere Melvins take the piss.
