The new Melvins live album Sugar Daddy Live is out now, swing on down to your local record shop and pick up a few. The recording comes from their fabled appearance at the Busta-Guts Club in Downey, CA. If you're one of those fence riders, AOL Music for a limited time has the album streaming in its entirety...
The U.S. residency mini tour is about halfway done, if you're in Chicago, Boston, NYC, or MPLS be sure to check them out and pick up one of the amazing customized for the city Endless Residency Box Sets. The 4 CD set was recorded live in L.A. in Jan. during the Spaceland Residency. It's the same 4 sets we're playing live on this 7 city tour. There's 50 sets individualized for each city. All hand printed and hand assembled and numbered. Design, art, and printing by Mackie and on Amphetamine Reptile Records. They're $50 apiece. That $12.50 a CD so quit bellyaching about the price already!
While in New York City the band will be stopping by Tara McPherson's store Cotton Candy Machine for a show poster signing/release event. They've also released a Melvins T-shirt with her design, but it appears to only be available in children's and women's sizes at this time.
The Melvins will be playing Sunset Junction Street Fair in L.A. on August 27th. Additionally, Buzz & Dale have mentioned recently that they'll be doing some 'Melvins-Lite' dates w/ Trevor Dunn while Big Business is on tour this summer. So far California dates in San Diego, Costa Mesa & San Luis Obispo have been announced. Speaking of the Biz, Stereogum preimered "Always Never Know When To Quit", a track from their forthcoming 'Quadruple Single'.
