Melvins 1983, the raw and unfiltered incarnation of the legendary band led by Buzz Osborne and original Melvins drummer Mike Dillard, return with 'Thunderball' - their first album in four years, out April 18 on Ipecac Recordings.
“'Thunderball' is the third Melvins 1983 album we've done together, and I wanted it to be bombastic - and I think we've achieved that,” says Osborne. “I've also wanted to do something with electronic artists Void Manes and Ni Maîtres for a long time. Both are extraordinary talents. Their unconventional use of electronics pushed 'Thunderball' beyond my expectations.”
The album was recorded by Toshi Kasai at Sound of Sirens Studios.
Founded in 1983 in Montesano, Washington, the Melvins are one of the most influential bands in modern music. Founded by Buzz Osborne (vocals/guitar) and drummer Dale Crover, who joined a year later, the Melvins pioneered the fusion of punk rock and heavy music. Over the course of their four-decade career, they released more than 30 original albums, countless live recordings and numerous singles and rarities.
