The Melvins - Civilized Worm

The Melvins return with Hold It In, their first studio album as a quartet since 2010's The Bride Screams Murder, on Oct. 14. 
 
Joining Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover for the 12-song outing are Butthole Surfers' guitar player Paul Leary and bass player JD Pinkus.  Hold It In was recorded in both Los Angeles and Austin earlier this year.

"Hold It In is a refreshing piece of fiction in a boring world of fact and bullsh*t," said Osborne.  "Paul is one of the best guitar players I have ever heard and Pinkus has an outside the box type of approach to both guitar and bass that you just have to let it ride.  I can't believe this actually happened.  I'm thrilled."

"It's very rare you get a chance to work with three folks from the 'Break A Wish' foundation, all at the same time," said Pinkus.  "I believe they'll remember their experience with me forever (or until they finally all lose their fight with S.I.D.S)."
 
The Melvins kick off a round of U.S. tour dates on Oct. 15 in Sacramento at Assembly, which also includes a performance at this year's Voodoo Experience in New Orleans. Osborne, Crover and Pinkus will be the touring roster for this run of dates.

Legendary Canadian punk group Subhumans emerged from the 1978 font of creativity that produced DOA and The Pointed Sticks. They have been part of the Alternative Tentacles family since the infamous 1981 Let Them Eat Jellybeans compilation (VIRUS004), and played shows with Dead Kennedys, Minor Threat, Black Flag, and Bad Brains. Their first album, Incorrect Thoughts, was released on Vancouver label Friends Records in 1980. The band always planned to make their older material available again, but a now-defunct San Francisco label had issued an unauthorized version of Incorrect Thoughts in the '80s which substituted some remixes without the band's knowledge, included tracks which hadn't made the cut for the original album, and changed the cover art. It was an unpleasant mystery for the band, and three decades later the former owner of that label asserted ownership over the original album, preventing its re-release without an expensive and contentious legal tussle. The Subhumans decided to meet the challenge to their ownership of their own material by rerecording all of the songs from Incorrect Thoughts, which they proceeded to do at the Hive Studios in Vancouver, assisted by Jesse Gander.
 
Original members Brian Goble (vocals), Gerry Hannah (bass), Mike Graham (guitar), and newly-recruited drummer Jon Card (formerly with Personality Crisis, SNFU, and DOA among others) got together in 2005 to record a new album of original material, New Dark Age Parade, for Alternative Tentacles (VIRUS366) and the band had been reactivated into a live entity. The intent was neither to slavishly recreate the old recordings nor to radically reinterpret the songs, but updating the sounds and the recording techniques while maintaining the original spirit of the album. As a bonus, Subhumans recorded six additional songs from the same period (some of which have never been recorded until now), available as extra tracks on the CD and as a separate 12-inch included with the two-disc vinyl version.
