There's nothing wrong in my opinion with a group that always does the same thing if they do it well. However, saying that about the Melvins would be just flat out wrong. While the Melvins certainly have quite a few very slow heavy rock songs, they also have one of the most diverse discographies overall a band could demonstrate over 25 years. Their earliest stuff is total hardcore and relatively fast, the slow proto grunge is really not the same from record to record and is certainly not at all like the major label records were, and the weird experimental stuff like Crybaby and Bootlicker is even more out from that. Then there's the singles double cd which has like 24 tracks that are all completely different from each other and cover every style imaginable. And then there the Snivlem album...

Mudhoney, yeah they do the same thing over and over and sometimes it's better than others, but the Melvins are anything but redundant.

@Dead Air: I agree with the Mudhoney, I heard 3 or 4 albums by them, and it's the same same.

I don't care for their last 3 albums much, though there are a some good songs from each. There first 3 albums were pretty good.

The White Stripes' brand of rock is shite. Some other rock is not.
