GREY REISSUE VINYL VARIANT - SUPER RARE (ASK IF YOU WANT A PIC OF IT)
 
Stoner Witch doesn’t deviate, relatively, from the groundwork they laid on Houdini. There are absolute monster rock songs (“Queen,” “Sweet Willy Rollbar,” “Revolve,” “Roadbull”) mixed with experimental sludge (“Magic Pig Detective,” “Shevil,” “Lividity”). It’s one of the great rock ‘n’ crimes that “Revolve” isn’t played on classic rock radio alongside the grunge standards from that era. “At the Stake” might be their heaviest anthem since Bullhead’s “Boris.” Stoner Witch is The Melvins’ strongest album from their Atlantic days; it ups the production value (listen to those drums on “Roadbull”) while somehow maintaining cohesiveness through their straight-out rockers and weird explorations.
