Review by Abdulah Mohamed
Melvins Seawhores is a self-titled album by the American experimental rock band, Melvins Seawhores. The album was released in 1992 and features a unique blend of heavy, distorted guitars, tribal drumming, and psychedelic soundscapes.
The album opens with the track "Hog Leg," a slow-building instrumental that sets the tone for the rest of the record. From there, the band launches into the frenzied "Let It All Be," which showcases their signature sound of pounding drums and distorted guitars.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Grinding Process," a seven-minute opus that features eerie sound effects and a haunting vocal performance by lead singer Buzz Osborne. The track builds to a climax with a blistering guitar solo that will leave listeners in awe.

About Melvins Seawhores
(the) Melvins are a prolific rock/metal band originally formed in 1983 in Aberdeen, WA, relocating to San Francisco, CA in 1988, and eventually settling in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley.

They perform under the name "Melvins Lite" with Trevor Dunn on stand-up bass and under the name "Melvins 1983" with Dale on bass instead of drums, in reference to the early incarnation of the band circa 1983 before Dale played the drums in the band. The name Melvins came from a grocery clerk at the Thriftway in Montesano where King Buzzo served as clerk and vandal. Melvin was the most hated fellow employee and they felt it to be an appropriately ridiculous name.
