MELVINS: BAD MOOD RISING *MOLDY MINT EDITION*

Sold out.

Six brand new songs!

The best part about a new Melvins album is that you’re never quite sure what you’re going to get. THAT’S the genius of these guys! With Bad Mood Rising it’s a tuned down rock and roll nightmare. 

BIG riffs and scary vocals. 

The album starts with Mr. Dog is Totally Right which clocks in at over 12 minutes. This song also features guest guitarist Dylan Carlson from the world famous band, Earth. 

What a treat!!

From there it goes into Never Say You’re Sorry. It sounds like the way a big mean dog walks. 

Great fun!

The rest of the album rounds out nicely. Hammering might be one of the catchiest songs the Melvins have ever written.

Bad Mood Rising-The newest Melvins album.

This is the MOLDY MINT EDITION & here's what's exclusive to this variant...

The vinyl on this edition is semi-translucent Coke-bottle green base with neon pinkish red splatters throughout.

As for the cover artwork, it's a collaboration betweenlegendary artist & former Replacements drummer Chris Mars & Amphetamine Reptile's own HAZE XXL. First, Chris started out the piece by designing & drawing the art directly onto a linoleum block then HAZE took over, meticulously carving the block & printing each one by hand.

Then they were scanned & that's where Boxy Mouse took things over where he turned those into silkscreens & printing them in 3 colors, this variant featuring the mint green ink colorway on our standard thick tan chipboard. The back of the sleeve was entirely designed by HAZE, is hand-stamped with the edition # & is limited to 200 copies in this edition.

Catalog # is AMREP145

Here's the tracks...

SIDE A

  • Mister Dog is Totally Right
  • Never Say You're Sorry
  • SIDE B

  • My Discomfort is Radiant
  • It Won't Or It Might
  • Hammering
  • The Receiver and The Empire State
  • Something we should also mention in case it's an issue. These releases are handmade & may have slight imperfections. We have the sleeves custom made, then they're shipped to us through the meatgrinder gamble that is UPS. From there, they are run through a screenprinter anywhere from an average of 6-9 times & then are all hand stuffed with the actual records. All in all, that's a lot of handling & so there's a good chance that they're not going to looking like a gleaming shrink-wrapped sleeve from a machine at a factory.

     

    We say this nearly every time & maybe one day it'll work, but PLEASE place everything you want into 1 ORDER.

    If there are multiple orders placed from the same customers we will either combine them with no refund on postage, or they will be sent out exactly as placed.

    C'mon, it's hard enough processing a couple hundred orders quickly without this AND responding to all the emails requesting combined shipping and refunds. This delays EVERY order.
