Amphetamine Reptile Records will be releasing a new EP of acoustic tracks from the Melvins. This will be out on both 10" vinyl(in 3 different art variants with a factory pressing coming at a later date) and CD via shoxop.com. The cover art linocut by HAXE XXL pays tribute to the Alice Cooper album Killer which is fitting as the band covers Halo of Flies from that album on the A-side of this release. Check out the details and track listing below!
Slithering Slaughter artwork by HAZE XXL
From AmRep: After the year we just had, it's a great time for some mellow, easy listening tunes. Thankfully, the Melvins had the exact same idea with their new, all-acoustic album, Slithering Slaughter. Get all cozy with a cup of chamomile tea & fire up the hi-fi starting things off with a 12-minute cover of Alice Cooper's Halo of Flies. HAZE XXL made the cover artwork & kept the theme going with his own serpentine tribute to Cooper's Killer album.
