The Melvins All Mixed Up

07/09/2009
. (PR) The Melvins will release Chicken Switch, a 15-song remix cd with a twist, on Sept. 29 via Ipecac Recordings. Unlike usual remix cds where the remixer is given a single track to work with, for Chicken Switch each remixer was given a full album to work with and pull from to create their track (and in some cases, more than one full album was used as source material). The song names were also newly selected by their remixer.

Chicken Switch track listing and remixer: 1. Washmachine Sk8tronics - Eye Yamatsuka 2. Emperor Twaddle Reemix - Christoph Heeman 3. She Chokes Her Dying Breadn and Does It In my Face - V/VM 4. AAHHH... - John Duncan 5. Linksh �nder - Matmos 6. EggNog Trilogy i) She's Ivanhoe ii) Cancer iii) Inebriated - Lee Ranaldo 7. SNOW REM REM IBVZ - Merzbow 8.
