The Melvins Announce New Album Freak Puke

The Melvins are back with a new incarnation: Melvins Lite. Buzz Osbourn and Dale Crover are teaming up with bassist Trevor Dunn, who has been a part of Mr. Bungle, Fantomas, and Tomahawk. The three have joined to record Freak Puke, a ten-track album that is due for release on June 5th.

Osbourn states, “The Melvins have a long history of mixing up our line-ups and I think that’s what has kept us relevant for so long. Consider the Freak Puke record the fifth side of the four-sided Melvins’ triangle.”
