Adam: Alternative Tentacles released the Jello Biafra / Melvins collaboration Never Breathe What You Can't See earlier this fall. It's urgent and heavy punk rock marrying Biafra's trademark warble with The Melvins' metallic crunch. Considering the people involved we really haven't talked about it enough here. Head to the AT site for more info and check out the following tunes:
Jello Biafra and the Melvins - Plethysmograph Jello Biafra and the Melvins - Yuppie Cadillac Brian: True, I probably couldn't have gotten much farther from the former in featuring Miracle of 86 here, but their latest EP Last Gasp is some really upbeat and enjoyable acoustic-based songs. Most bands playing this style resort to melodramatic pandering, so incorporating the uplifting qualities not only provides a refreshing alternative but just a generally happier experience too.
