Album Notes
The Melvins: King Buzzo (vocals, guitar); Jared Warren (vocals, bass instrument); Dale Crover, Coady Willis (vocals, drum).
The early 2000s found the Melvins engaging in all manner of loud/heavy experiments, some considerably more enjoyable than others. On 2006's (A) SENILE ANIMAL, however, the long-running avant-metal ensemble return to its classic roots. Band mainstays Dale Crover (drums) and Buzz Osborne (vocals/guitar) are joined here by Pacific Northwest bass/drums power duo Big Business, and the results are devastating.
Crover is a brutal enough drummer on his own, but the addition of Coady Willis on a second kit both increases the power of the assault and keeps things curiously off-kilter; Jared Warren's bass is all rumbling fuzz and punch and provides an impressive platform for Crover's art-metal riffage; and the multilayered vocals make the whole thing that much more colossal. The Melvins have always been something of a grab bag, and while it's a safe bet to expect something interesting, it's a pleasure to be awarded something this unrelentingly awesome.

Editorial Reviews
[L]ead Melvins Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover haven't just reconnected with their early roar; they've added welcome new layers of excess to it: More groove, more brutality, more melody and more wonderfully gratuitous percussion.
Alternative Press

Always ones to smash expectations, The Melvins have actually turned in their most straight-up rock album since 1994's STONER WITCH.
Kerrang

Both stalwart Dale Crover and Coady Willis play drums, and the double kit rumble is one of the album's defining sonic tropes....A SENILE ANIMAL is the sound of a group -- past, present and future.

    The crazy uncles of grunge.
    This CD brings me right back to the Melvins mid 1990's heyday. The addition of two new members brings a whole new energy. The exploding bass player saga continues with the replacement of Kevin with Jared from Big Business. Another addition is a second drummer - Coady (also Big Business) which compliments Dale very well. It's like when you bring a puppy home and your old dog acts like it hasn't in years. Please forgive my analogy Dale. Dale even played guitar with them on the recent tour. Quite a show, indeed. If you enjoyed Stoner Witch, you WILL dig this.
    As an owner of every Melvins recording I can get my hands on, I totally recommend this release. It is now in my top 20 rotation list. Has been for months.
