Melvins - Live at the Showbox - Seattle - 07-26-08



Label: Bootleg
Year: 2008

This is a soundboard recording which accompanied a video that a guy was circulating around the internet a couple years ago. The sound quality is pretty ace, as you would expect from the soundboard.
The show features a good amount of Nude With Boots material, plus some songs from Bullhead, Houdini, Electroretard, (A) Senile Animal, the "Star Spangled Banner", and their version of "My Generation" that surfaced a couple years later on The Bride Screamed Murder.
Not that you're on the fence about the Melvins or anything, but my own opinion is that even though the band's recorded output has suffered from a lack of editing as of late, their live shows are still impeccable. The dueling drums are blistering, and Buzzo's guitar is as damaging as ever.
