EarWax: An Amoeba Podcast

Ep. 52: Melvins - Houdini


Listen Later

Bolt down anything that might shift due to the crushing weight of the heaviness, EarWax is going sludge!

Hilary and Cody discuss Melvins' legacy through the lens of arguably their most famous record. The story behind Houdini is a little sad, but ultimately this record serves as a fantastic gateway into a band that casts an extremely large shadow.

A great mix of heavy and slow with a few speedier tracks for balance, Houdini has just a hint of Kurt Cobain's presence throughout.

Turn up your speakers all the way and prepare yourself for the glory that is Melvins, and for the ass-kickery on Houdini.
