Basses Loaded showcases the Melvins' adventurous spirit as they push the boundaries of rock, blending weighty riffs with unpredictable twists. Released in 2016 on Ipecac Recordings, this album stands out for featuring contributions from notable bassists, including the debut of Steven Shane McDonald (Redd Kross) and a guest appearance by Nirvana co-founder Krist Novoselic. The result is a powerful and inventive exploration of the band's enduring energy and offbeat sensibility.
This release distills the essence of Melvins' genre-defying style, drawing from material previously featured on special EPs and split releases. With each track offering a unique take on heavy, experimental rock, Basses Loaded captures the creativity and vigor that have made the Melvins a continually influential force in underground music.
