Melvins will release their acoustic covers album Five Legged Dog on October 15. The album features 36 acoustic renditions of Melvins songs from across their entire catalog, as well as a handful of covers.
"I knew I wanted to do something ridiculously big," said vocalist and guitarist Buzz Osborne. "36 songs reimagined by us acoustically is certainly ridiculous but it works. The magic of the songs is still there regardless of it being acoustic. Since we weren't touring we had the time to do something of this size. I'm very excited about this record. Dale and Steven did a fantastic job on this. I think it’s a very special record. I can’t think of anyone else who’s done something like this."
