MELVINS detail new album 'Basses Loaded'
08 March 2016THE MELVINS have confirmed they'll release their bass-heavy new album in June.
'Basses Loaded' features six bass players and is issued on June 3 via Ipecac Recordings. Mainman Buzz Osborne and drummer Dale Crover are joined by Nirvana’s Krist Novoselic, Redd Kross’ Steve McDonald, Butthole Surfers’ JD Pinkus, Big Business’ Jared Warren and Mr Bungle and Fantomas man Trevor Dunn.
