The Melvins return with a 13-track covers album titled "Everybody Loves
Sausages," which is set for an Apr. 30 release via Ipecac Recordings.

"This record will give people a peak into the kind of things that
influence us musically," explains Buzz Osborne. "We REALLY like all of
these songs along with the bands who actually wrote this stuff because
first and foremost we are HUGE music fans."

In a decidedly Melvins approach to a covers album, the band not only
selected a unique assortment of songs to cover, ranging from Roxy
Music's "In Every Dream Home A Heartache" to Queen's "Best Friend," they
also enlisted several friends to take part including Mudhoney's Mark
Arm joining them for The Scientists' "Set It On Fire" and Neurosis'
Scott Kelly pitching in on a cover of Venom's "Warhead."

While the release is billed as a proper Melvins' album (featuring the
line-up of Osborne, Dale Crover, Jared Warren and Coady Willis), there
are a handful of songs recorded as the Melvins Lite incarnation of the
band (Osborne, Crover and Trevor Dunn): "Female Trouble" (Divine a.k.a.
John Waters), "Timothy Leary Lives" (Pop-O-Pies) and "Romance By Tales
of Terror" (Tales of Terror).

Can't wait. Will be buying for sure.

 

 

Ipecac will put out two to three colors. Not say what they are until stores and distros have them and never release pressing info.

 

I have no problems with this and I like that they do things like that.

 

Edit - This will be worth it just for the 'Tales of Terror' cover alone.

Per Ipecac's Facebook:
A new Melvins record packed with special
guests, the Mark Lanegan/Duke Garwood record, the debut release from
Palms and more Tomahawk shows....the next few months are going to be
GREAT!

 

I think the use of "record" makes it a little more clear that it will be on vinyl... right?!?!
