Melvins Are ‘Allergic to Food’ (and Melodies in a Good Way) on Wild New Song


Melvins have released 'Addicted to Food,' a new song off their upcoming 'Tarantula Heart' album.

Grunge rock’s most indefatigable missionaries, Melvins, will return this spring with Tarantula Heart, their umpteenth release since the turn of the millennium (or is that umphundredth?). On the wild “Allergic to Food,” the latest single to come off the album, due out April 19, they dial up the cacophony with even-deeper-than-usual swirls of guitar, drums, and noise with even more musicians. For Tarantula Heart, the twosome teamed with guitarist Gary Chester (We Are the Asteroid), bassist-singer Steven McDonald (Redd Kross, Off), and drummer Roy Mayorga (Nausea, Soulfly, Ministry), and you can hear how the noise builds on the track.
