The Melvins have announced their fall U.S. “STOP YOUR WHINING TOUR” with special guests Redd Kross. It’s so sick to see these two legendary bands unite for a coast-to-coast double shot of underground rock royalty.
Get your ears on The Melvins’ recently released album, Thunderball at https://themelvins.lnk.to/Thunderball and get your eyeballs on “Now You’re One Of Us: The Incredible Story of Redd Kross” book and the documentary Born Innocent: The Redd Kross Story. https://www.reddkrossfilm.com/
PRESS RELEASE: Known for their crushing riffs, genre-defying experiments, and off-kilter sense of humor, the Melvins continue to defy expectations four decades into their career. The band, currently featuring Buzz Osborne, Dale Crover, Steven McDonald (also of Redd Kross), and Coady Willis, remains one of the most influential and unpredictable forces in heavy music.
Joining The Melvins for the full tour are L.A. icons Redd Kross, whose kaleidoscopic blend of punk, retro glam, and garage rock has earned them a cult following since the early ’80s.
Tickets are available via Ipecac.com/tours.

The Melvins are one of modern music’s most influential bands. Having formed in 1983 Montesano, Washington, the group – founded by vocalist/guitarist Buzz Osborne, with drummer Dale Crover joining a year later – has been credited with merging the worlds of punk rock and heavy music, forming a new subgenre all their own. Over their 40-plus-year career, they’ve released more than 30 original albums, numerous live records, and far too many to count singles and rarities. Recent releases include Thunderball, a Melvins 1983 release that sees Osborne reunite with the band’s original drummer, Mike Dillard, 2024’s Tarantula Heart, an album that Osborne wrote songs based on a series of improvisational live sessions,the six-song 2022 Bad Mood Rising, and Five Legged Dog (2021), an ambitious 36-track acoustic collection that reimagines their heaviest songs alongside covers of their favorite artists.
