Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Nobody likes the Melvins; 40 years and 187 releases later. Trust me I have many Melvins LPs, and I still don’t like them. I figure I will buy every one until I find one that I like. Rumor is Kurt Cobain liked them so 5 stars
Ozma is quintessential Melvins from start to finish. I think this band is unique, as proven here and throughout their extensive, eclectic catalogue. Creative and HEAVY. Highly recommended.
The "additional photos" etc are nothing great, there is no booklet or anything. The album is a nice gatefold, but pretty basic. These albums both sound nice and full and are worth owning on vinyl. The additional bonus track download is the same bonus track that was on the ozma CD, "Candy-o" by the cars, so that is lame that they would even advertise that as an incentive.
Bought as a birthday gift for my husband, and he lost his mind, LOL thanks for making his 30th special! As he played it, I found that I really enjoyed the Melvins too!
Vinyl sounds great and the gatefold cover is nice. My only complaint is that the live photos inside the gatefold cover are very low-resolution and pixelated. Small beans considering I have wanted to own these two classic Melvins albums on vinyl for years and years. Now I have them!
I Get a lot of Good vinyl from time to time.. This is what you Need! No Collection is done without Melvins! This reprint of these 2XLP's is pure Gold In ANY Collection - ANY! Get it right now, In fakt Get All the Melvins vinyl you can get. I dare you! Imagine if Slayer smoked a really Fat One!... that's the Sound! Best band EVER.

Great sounding record. However it was clearly manhandled during or before shipping and the corners were very bent. The only reason I am giving 3 stars is because they are good albums.
This is a fine vinyl reissue of two of the most influental Melvins-releases. I do not own the original vinyl-releases of these albums, so I can`t make a direct comparison sonically, but these new vinyls sound great! The packaging is pretty standard, a few "rare" pictures, but nothing really breathtaking.
You also get a download card, which brings me to my one big complaint. The mp3s has not been remastered, they are exactly the same as the old cd-versions most of us have had for decades. I know that this is the case for many vinyl-reissues, mainly because of the different master used for vinyl-pressings, but I would have preferred both the analog and digital versions to have been remastered.
