Breakdown of the Melvins 1994 LP "Prick" also with your questions answered ! 

I am glad to see all of these videos, Mark. I know it’s been years and years ago but you have a very long history with a lot of cool things, including your time with the Melvins. It’s nice to see you embracing that and telling your various stories. Looking forward to the inevitable video on the Honkey album and what was going on around that time period.

I love prick. It was so wildly different than all the other stuff... I'm so hyped to hear from you, mark. Thank you so much. I've seen Melvins 60+ times... my 1st time was in 90? With cows in San Mateo? But, yeah.

Mark, your channel is amazing and rich beyond compare. You've made a patreon patron of me! At your price it's a total bargain. Thank you for enriching my engagement with music. You are a real gentleman!

That was great, thanks for doing it! Can't wait for your next album; Bellringer and The Blue Bird are blindingly good records.

Love Prick. It's like proto ASMR. Ha!

I’m only one minute in and have learnt shit I wanted to know for years thx mark

Great history and story telling Mark!

Me and my friends had a lot of fun with this album. The fact that it was so weird was why we loved it.

THROWAWAY??? Rickets is one of the best songs. I’m weird though. Nice to know it’s inspired by “Musique concrète”. I still have more video to go… but had to throw up my objection on Rickets.

Mark could you do talks about your own solo albums? I'd love to hear about each one. Also Honky too!

Thanks for sharing the stories. Rediscovered this after years in storage, such a great fun record. The Melvins Stockhausen Record, I love it.

Hey Mark, believe it or not, Prick was the very first Melvins Album I actually bought back in the nineties and it made me absolutely curious about the band. It resulted in me buying at least every studio album and attending more than 40 live shows in Germany and the US since the mid-nineties up to this day ! Thank you so much for your posts, what a treasure for all the Melvins fans. ✌Cheers from Germany !

I've always thought that Chief Ten Beers was a parody of Chief Ten Bears, featured in Dances With Wolves. And this should be obvious, but thanks for making the Deutrom era of (the) Melvins possible. Peak period of the peak band.

Thanks for answering my question. Also, thanks for pronouncing my correctly. Nobody ever gets it right.😂

i remember gong to the works record store in arcata to buy this when it came out, and the guy behind the counter talked me out of it. i guess a few people bought it and returned it. wish i had bought it!

On my original vinyl the first song on side 2 is Punch the Lion. I always liked the experimental aspects of it.

♥️

hey this video is incredible and i really loved hearing about the history of the record also sorry if the comment i put on your previous video made me look like a little bit of a prick (no pun intended), i was really trying to think of a funny question and in turn made myself look a little rude and i really do apologize if i did come off that way

You dont really believe Kurt killed himself do you? Other than that,awesome content. I subscribed. I came here because of PRICK which i owned in 1995, since then lost.

Started my day with your Poison Idea video, and I’ve just been working through your whole channel while I’m at work. This stuff is great man, love the channel!

I love Prick now, but it took years for me to appreciate. And I was even an avant bruh. Was at a Babes in Toyland show around the time the record came out, and the opening band, who were on AmRep, said he’d heard a rumor that you had turned the Prick album in as your major label follow up to Houdini and of course they rejected it and so Stoner Witch was submitted. I know now this wasn’t true, but always thought it to be a funny rumor

This was great! Thanks for putting it together 🙌🏽 Will you be doing one for Honky or Singles 1 to 12 in the future?

Thanks for the info on this record. I've always enjoyed it and love revisiting it. It was a delight to revisiting with you.

Great album, great video. Thanks, Mark!

Mark, I am loving all of your videos. If you ever do any other tour round ups, could you share any memories of the aborted tour opening for Gwar when you were working FOH? Regardless, thank you.

Didn't realize you knew Joe Preston and Lori Black. You three are the Melvins best bass players in my opinion.

Year after year, and I keep coming back to Prick.

THX

What an amazing video - you sir, are a National Treasure. Thank you for the Patreon shout-out! I hope every one of your subscribers gets it together and signs up for the best Patreon account there is! (By the way - I remember reading Haze say on Instagram that it was a legitimate mess up with the red, but then he thought it looked cool.) These videos are amazing - thank you for making them - they are so much fun and super informative.

I can listen to you all day..

This is the best channel on the RU-vid machine!

You rule MAN!!!!!

many thanks for detailing so much about an album i thought would just remain mysterious! side 2 is mostly right, vinyl seems to have mixed a couple things up: "punch the lion" = church bell song "chalk people" = doesn't seem to be on the vinyl? buzzbox, drums, what sounds like buzzo bellowing gibberish "larry" = normal instrumental "roll another one" = the 'rrrrrollllll' intro/guitar solo/roadbull demo/two jams/german yelling song/crowd noise the ending of the german (btw awesome to know who that is now!) song is indeed weirdly ominous, that whole track sort of is, as is a fair bit of the album itself. then again i first listened to this alone in a hotel room at 4am which seemed like a strangely appropriate listening environment thanks again for the info i've been itching to know for years!

Gluey porch treatments huh... That's amazing.. and a classic I had no idea that you produce that way to go Mark.. I always thought you were an excellent bass player as well seeing you guys live when you were with them on when you're smaller venues I think we were in Nashville or maybe it was Atlanta not sure it's been too many years anyways dude Melvin's rule... You as well MARK D

That's the exact stuff that a Melvin's fan needs. Not even the music 😅
