Melvins rule but they aren't from Seattle either. Them and Nirvana are coastal bands from about 2 1/2 hours from here. Of course it's natural everyone associates them with Seattle though.
You ever listen to TAD Finland breh? They should have been huge during that whole scene but the lead singer Tad was too much of a fat lumberjack looking dude or something. They shred though.
Get Salt Lick/God's Balls and 8-way Santa. The first one is their first two EPs combined and it's awesome then the other is their first full length and it's awesome too.
