Once again, the recording quality leaves much to be desired. I think it would have suited the Melvins to play this as their first set. I definately prefer the first set to this one. The first set is so much more free and experimental (the cornerstone of Melvins live material in my mind). This set is definately the harder side of their pop sound (a sound I definately love and appreciate... just not as much as the experimental when you're talking about live Melvins). Once again, the tape has problems and there are some little "pops" throughout. What's wierd is that most of them fall at the same time as a song begins. I am thinking that maybe the taper cut some audio out in order to make sure to have enough time to get the entire set in... possible? I don't know. Anyway, the show is still incredible. Zodiac is very nice. Night Goat is a very very excellent extended version worthy of a few listens for sure to get everything that the boys do! I really like this two-set show, just wish the quality was a little better. Oh well, still great rockin' Melvins. This is incomplete, as is the first set. This show ended at around 3am. This is incomplete because the taper cut a ton of stuff out while he was taping due to only having one 90 minute tape. Someone who was at the show can't recall exactly what else was played, but remembers the set being about 50-60 minutes long. |
