Melvins
Grunge from the 1990s: fuzzed power-chord guitar, melodic bass, hard-hitting drums, raw and defiant in feel. A name-free Suno recipe that reproduces the signature sound without tripping the artist-name filter.

History
Melvins are an American rock band formed in 1983 in Montesano, Washington, near Aberdeen, by guitarist-vocalist Buzz Osborne, bassist Matt Lukin, and drummer Mike Dillard. Dale Crover replaced Dillard on drums in 1984 and, alongside Osborne, has been a constant member ever since, while the bass slot has rotated through many players over the decades. Starting as a hardcore punk act, the band slowed its songs down into a heavier, more menacing style that became a foundation of sludge metal and a major influence on the Pacific Northwest grunge scene. Debut album Gluey Porch Treatments appeared in 1987, followed by Ozma (1989) and Bullhead (1991) on Boner Records, before a major-label run on Atlantic produced Houdini (1993) and Stoner Witch (1994). Kurt Cobain, an Aberdeen native and longtime friend of the band, co-produced several Houdini tracks and helped push Atlantic to sign Melvins; Dale Crover had earlier filled in as Nirvana's drummer on a 1990 West Coast tour. Since 1999 the band has recorded primarily for Ipecac Recordings, staying prolific across a large and stylistically varied catalog.
