The Bit - Melvins (European Tour 2009) Perfect Quality

[@Kell1984]

I saw this this tour in Ireland and the bassist said "one day this can all be yours." while pointing at a picture of a giant pizza on the screen behind the drums. Great times.

[@r0landleaf370]

the humor of Melvins and Co. is a main reason of my fandom

[@ashrafsahdan5606]

"You either love the Melvins or you're wrong!"

[@focalized]

Amazing how such a heavy riff can still be made since heavy riffs started.

[@organicate]

I couldn't go.. my friends did.. they remind me all the time. This is immense.

[@nunobettencourt9360]

The best formation of the Melvin’s 🙏☺️☮️

[@mikebro341]

The Big Business Melvins absolutely kill it.

[@centralnysasquatch37dogman69]

That guitar and bass tone ,drums gold in unison!

[@Ahibasabala]

I never fully appreciated just how heavy the Melvins are, great track, i love their songs more every day.

[@MikkelThaUberHomie]

That bass distortion!

[@badtexasbill5261]

This was the best era of live Melvins.

[@CarlosRivera-wx3dv]

By far

[@jacksonmorris1615]

I like to think nothing could ever shake my love for the Melvins and my intense year-after-year lust for their live presence in my city, but it definitely helps that my first show was during this time. For a band with virtually meaningless lyrics and constantly self-cannibalizing song structures and ideas, something REALLY fucking resonated with this line-up and my eighteen-year-old brain.

[@camuscolorado]

I probably revisit this video once a month for the last 12 years, now. That bass tone, OMG. Now, less than a month from seeing The Melvins live for the first time, I can't wait to be on the front row, heandbanging like those lucky bastards out there.

[@RadhadaniteBabylonian]

It's so great to see a fellow lefthanded drummer!!

[@m.ario_]

I attended this awesome concert. According to my notes the date was 10 december 2009.

[@baacardi]

I love this band. I love this line up. I love this song. I love this performance.

[@quitsevensix]

All this record is insane love so much Stag

[@thenewweekendchemist7052]

Melvins always have a great bass player.

[@LEGENDCITYest1963]

The voice, the BASS, the guitar, and the DRUMS...it's just absolute perfection.

[@darrenblacketer1578]

The Melvins are so real and they are keeping the vibe very much alive and well thank goodness for them

[@antondillet466]

The Melvins? The Melvins! I don’t know what to say. They’re unbelievable again and again and again. In this Video some good camera work. Thank you!

[@iamfrayer5534]

who needs rhythm guitar when you got that bass

[@mauriciocamarena1138]

You're goddamn right

[@x.vaermina.x1568]

[@cleve2323]

[@silverburst79]

[@javink666]

[@michaelweber2277]

[@jedediah7772]

Wow that may be my fav live Melvins song, sounds pretty damn great🤘🏼

[@Tony-xn7sd]

I saw this line up in Manchester uk a few years ago, fucking perfect, also saw the Steve McDonald version as well, again, fucking perfect, sublime live band :)

[@anthonyindy1]

It's that bass distortion.. it speaks to us...

[@Virgilivs87]

That bass sounds perfectly!

[@Jakeman90210]

[@rafaelhannah8411]

most apocafuckinglyptic riff ever

[@terryoneil7128]

Well said friend!

[@jorgearanda8129]

Best Melvins line up ever...with the guys of Big Bussiness.

[@philearl7614]

Loudest band I’ve ever seen - but so worth the tinnitus afterwards 🤘🙉🤘

[@homelessathome]

so insanely good

[@300Voltz]

Never underestimate the heaviness of the riff. ☝️🧐 All hail the melvins. 🫡

[@johnhukle7606]

Tight...

[@bopbopperono58]

All of their old stuff is so much better with Jared and Coady.

[@timturk1899]

I never got into their albums in the early/mid 90's. Lived above a metal/rock club. Made a band. Opened for our heroes, see our heroes with our friends band opening. Saw some unreal shows, going back to Husker Du, Black Flag days. And met many cool people/bands, BUT NEVER GOT TO SEE THE MELVINS LIVE! What a difference that might have made! Woulda loved to see them! They were touring with Nirvana for awhile. If on club tour, I would have been blessed, surely. Love to hear some old, live stuff! If seen em like this, I would have gotten it! And learned much. We were a sloppy Melvins, to give you a hint. And sloppy is not the Melvins! Tight as it gets! Now I get it! They don't even need 3 chords, 2 is fine, and tighter, more ferocious and heavier than any speed/death metal! I use to hear that they played so slow, they'd empty the club! Always a bands band. Like Soundgarden. Who? But every band knew! Same with the Melvins. Every line up I've seen live on KZbin has been great! I'll have to look for some older, live stuff! Any recommendations?

[@Jareeee]

I love seeing Buzz as MuMulluminati.

[@hojima]

@martin7viola they do prefer smaller places. Buzz has said in an interview htat he doesnt think music should be heard in places with larger than 500 capacity.

[@MartinfdeZ81]

Cause The Melvins always were there.....

[@donkekis]

King Buzzo should do a song with slayer - his vocals would be perfect

[@aaronpunk326]

I like only one song Slayer - "Wicked"/ sounds too match like Melvins. Other too fast and trashmetal, like early Ministry/ need more slow bass and distortion/

[@mauriciocamarena1138]

He did an Slayer medley with Fantomas, his side project. Check it out!

[@frankvogel8607]

Bout the only person who could make Slayer heavier.

[@michaelgarcia2050]

Buzz has the secret ingredient for heavy riffs.

[@GothicXlightning]

miss to see him Rocking his Black beauty of Honor cool intro anyway

[@zekechap]

@moshtop CONGRATULATIONS!

[@daviddarkins1514]

Rrrrrrriiiiiippppppeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrr

[@NecroRemco]

I'm not a cunt because i was there, this is filmed in a great club called De Kreun, in Kortrijk, Belgium. Check 4x4music.eu for more gigs that have been filmed there, like Shrinebuilder!

[@bartverhelst4115]

present as well... one of our best clubs indeed!

[@ookie887]

Omg what is that bassist using?

[@OscillatorSink]

Pure fucking sexual energy. The bass isn't even plugged in.

[@defpeck]

So fucking heavy. ...so fucking heavy.

[@felixcarnivorous7039]

I always begin mowing my lawn to this song.

[@servantofruin]

fucking yes, bass destroyed my right ear

[@LEGENDCITYest1963]

METAL in a MUUMUU

[@suzannelemoine3964]

5:05 holy shit

[@LuciaFernandez-iq8oi]

Kickass music! Probably, as most times, unfortunately, the venue turns itself into a sauna, when the crowd is tight. But honestly, what made me smile a bit, is the obviously non-balanced "hard work" to play, perform this music, I mean THIS song live..Obviously the drummer is sweating his ass off beating the shit out of that box, while the other band members seem to have quite a chill time ;)

[@jhormanbaez7882]

[@jason9618]

melvins are bettere in oly. don't bring yer la kind round my kind GOD LOVES THE RARIO WAVES!

[@sloggothband]

How many cupcakes can Dale eat? How many must that man eat on tour just to stay alive? Does he get citrus? Scurvy is a great concern to many.

[@steelfiend]

no pinche mames!!! this is fuckin heavy!!!

[@jlwaddey9579]

anyone know what song Jared's singing at the end of this?

[@66fairlanegta]

After/while hearing this i went looking to buy but can`t seem to find under " Melvins live in Belgium" and one website said that it hasn`t been released yet....Where can i buy a copy of this????

[@weezerxmas]

dale somehow does more with an assistant

[@kingkiller_1001]

If I remember correctly Kurt Cobain produced this song for the Melvins

[@blazingtrails7497]

not much moshing tho i seen em at rockfest monatbello 2 yrs ago was sick 100s thousands ppl rockin out melvins with 2 pits going

[@HistericalAyatollah]

2009... course

[@timturk1899]

Whole show, high quality, available? I'm subscribed, but haven't checked all your stuff. Was this ever released in high quality sound? Whole show? Really excellent! Great! Love HQ versions!

[@mmeans63]

They could not find three.....

[@REVfour20]

But i thought they never wanted more than three?

[@wphmijland]

Why not dance to the musique?

[@sarnieboy123]

This was ridiculous when I saw them in islington! Slow mosh pits hurt a lot more!

[@GirlsGamesGunsGuitar]

Did buzz have to go take a dump or something?

[@timturk1899]

Like Jerry Garcia in The Dead. 1st one off stage before drums/space section! And if you get that, you're very musically aware! Joke, but yeah, Jerry always left at that time of the 2nd set! Good one! Lol!

[@maximilianodicarlo125]

Where is Patton?

[@fertuiee]

Doing stuff with FNM maybe?......his band? :)

[@HellomynameisN]

why do they have two drummers?

[@daverlb]

HellomynameisN To kick twice as much ass!!! FFS!

[@timturk1899]

To copy The Grateful Dead and get that fan base following them. Similar musical styles. Tone, clean, much interaction and improvising jams! Grateful Dead wanna be band. Does that make sense? It shouldn't! 2 heads are better than one. 8 limbs are better than 4. But like The Dead, drummers aren't mirroring each other, but adding to, like one drummer, 8 limbs. Melvins do this as well. Complementing each other, building each other up! Very well done, and way more complex/complicated than most any band seen with 2 drummers, as part of the act, playing the same thing. If one screws up, the others there playing the same simple beat. Very smart band! Who know exactly what they're doing, at all times. And make it look easy! Heaviest, tightest, and way more brutal than any Death Metal!

[@deathmetaldownhiller7874]

@@timturk1899 it's never occurred to me how much these guys have mirrored the Dead. Now that I think of it, Buzzo is really just a sludged out Jerry

this riff!!!!!!! is so fucking evil heavy as shit!!! hahah if only i was still alive i would witness this shit ---- Kurt Cobain

@@Jakeman90210 Like at the Fair/carnival, type of mirror, with distortion that makes them look different, play different. Now Dale plays with a hologram! Melvins. Always into the newest, high tech entertainment equipment! Lol! Does she mean "Doe!", like when Homer F's up? She thinks he's hot, or pathetic? Maybe dat bitch jus' into BBC? "You down with BBC?", She says "Yeah, you know me!", lol. Maybe their hairs too short? No, it's those Converse sneakers! She likes starting words with a "D", I know! A mirror! LMAO!
