Not bad, not bad at all. I came across this CD and I had to give it a listen. I'm not a big fan of The Melvins but this CD is good. I give it three and a half. For true Melvins fans, thats for sure.

As the title states, this is a collections of demos recorded in 1983 by the original version of the Melvins featuring King Buzzo, Matt Lukin, and pre-Dale Crover drummer Mike Dilliard. Surprisingly, most of this stuff is fairly standard 3-chord punk, so Melvins fans might be taken aback by what they're hearing. The liner notes are pretty entertaining, where Buzz recounts his high school years growing up among the rednecks of Washington state and rips on a member of Metal Church. A good album for Melvins diehards and completists, but not recommended for 1st time listeners or casual Melvins fans.
