Мои подозрения, павшие на The Melvins после знакомства с удивительно покладистым «Houdini» (1993), оказались не напрасными: поблизости от него в дискографии американских рокеров притаился и совершенно слащавый «Stoner Witch». В отличие от эпатажно бредового одногодки «Prick», «Стоунерская ведьма», напротив, вызывающе форматна и миловидна. Какое отношение этот ленивый пляжный рок-н-ролл может иметь к ранним сладж-металическим опусам-глыбам команды? Наверное, общее только одно – прокручивая игривые и мягкие мелодии «Stoner Witch», все равно ловишь себя на мысли, что The Melvins вновь посмеиваются у слушателя за спиной. А рок-н-ролл, от крутяще-шатающей «Skweetis» (1) до романтичных насвистываний в «Roadbull» (6), от невероятно динамичных композиций в середине до укуренной психоделии в финале - это просто брошенная на забаву публике кость. Даже нечто, напоминающее дроун, тут не подтянутое и не ровное, а зыбучее, и обычно строгий ритм ударных вдруг сбивается и только путает слушателя.
Самое интересное, что находятся эксперты, считающие этот альбом лучшим у The Melvins. Что же, для эстетов, которые «в теме» давно и глубоко – возможно. Для случайного же прохожего – скорее глубинная разработка каких-то премудростей, чем вершина дискографии. |

Breathin' here
You got send to toad water, you been
Like someone left to cold half breathin'
Maybe me and the Queen could take another over
Walk it away, yeah
Oh little wish it away
I got time to wish away
Little wish it away
Head look about the free
Like a dumb mum bring a wheel
I might take the tee mind over
Load and see
I done kicked a hole wide lookin'
A gapin' half to free mind mover
Maybe me and the Queen can give a side order
Love it away, well
Oh little wish it away
I got time to wish away
Little wish it away
She don't hang.
"Sweet Willy Rollbar"
(words/music: Osborne)
The free day ready to cheev
Like a sordid ray
He make a motor clean
He shake it luck in yesterday
Life inside your smile
Ringin' through your tail
Right.
You got a motor and it's so ready I
I got a motive, sorry I don't
"Revolve"
(words: Osborne; music: Deutrom/Osborne)
Freedom on like stems from walk away.
You gotta hold your time,
You gotta hit it with the right of way.
Maybe black too far for any like the one seen.
In a way it's sane,
Either way it's gotta mean.
Red sister might be chokin'
But I ain't about that kind.
Answer me with the rhythm of a body that was born to lose two times.
Hey big Bodie
He says deny but your for tin lie.
Head my shoulder
Big boat deloves, big boat deny.
They might try to hide
But they have to have some more dead sense.
You might be right
Like a ball in the wind.
Poison dandy lifeforms crime.
Mix both down cross,
Sticky pedal the line.
The flavor might be missin'
But he acts to cross that anyway.
You can bet he can diddle with the promise in the power of another day.
*Chorus*
Two of you sold my wallet.
One of you stole my tie.
Didn't you say that you're watching?
Do or die.
Venomous strange appears.
Three of you standing by.
Didn't you say that you've got it?
Watch me eye.
"Goose Freight Train"
(words: Osborne; music: Crover/Deutrom/Osborne)
Oh, Di
They've gone and left me for her other way.
Each every time I think the wheel around,
It's gone.
I've got a reason for heading home
It's not serene,
It don't make sense to me.
I've got the four eyes blooming under half of my bed
Seems to tingle as the razor ball it cover and claw
I see it shine.
I see it stare.
Holding heart
In my hand.
Take the master morgue and make her have him sitting offside
Let the glory boy of Mr. Henry have it on rye.
Pass us some normal meat
Keep us insane.
Bores who take away
Feel it.
The habits survive
But old of his hand
Guised in moment he
Teeny hate.
Oh, Di
You should've known you could have rested on me.
Each every time I kept the real alive
You took me for the drive to feel the feat
And it's hard.
"Roadbull"
(words: Osborne; music: Crover/Deutrom/Osborne)
Bull, you square.
And the prophet-holdin' man
Sings as to where I find it
5-0 the gingeree
Missing all, missing all.
Keep out
Be war
Need freedom
Key
And the prophet injury
Lap warm and hold and keen
Been lord in time
I like the warm and I.
"At the Stake"
(words: Osborne; music: Crover/Deutrom/Osborne)
Maybe once and maybe came away
I took a quarter of your wishes
Fed them all aside
The weaker of the fortune's mystery
Hasn't yet all appeared to me
But then I never wanted more than three
Shade's know any reason
Flames are all I see
Hala-tease been forsaken maybe
Stirin all on a lee
So it seems and so it's came away
Might be the voicings frighten
And so it's gotten me
The weaker of the fortune's mystery
Has finally pissed indee
Indeed, made it for the eve
Shade's know any reason
Flames are all I see
Hala-tease been forsaken maybe
Stirin all on a lee
Now they're gonna burn me
Make all my flesh away'd
Real green turnin half ball shaken
Leave me, horror day.
"Magic Pig Detective"
(words/music: Osborne)
Low soul in a manic
Feels so only queen
A deep tripe for a wander aimless
Just fakes his green
Cuz I say no you're mine
And I'm no only nine feed
You got a cross confusing my ages
Not yet more me
Cuz I say you're in a ready
Bleach-hearted boy wretched voice indeed
A prosthetic you waitin to destroy
Two sides to Dylan's haw hee
Feeling like a cemetary
Karpick a what is in me
A drill a sin try to kill it
I sit on a quire haw hee
Gettin like a titty single only
A bottom make a cell it's time to bleed
Tee, la-la hee-hee
Pig try to give it to you
Killin like a hundred an fifteen in
Feed Birmingham
"Shevil"
(words/music: Osborne)
It's nice to take a narrow man
And hold in a heaven
Grab it hold of for lamb
You try to deafen me
And leave it for shavin
Man over for same, yeah
Ben stars in all my wars and more, they're
Gonna act in emergency
When he beats them down and haunt it all away
It's nice to pick a lame vein
And mold it for metal
Raw load is a gran
Budweiser eppen me
Ex-ect us for favors
Why one does a hang child
Piston story yeah
And sorta sorry
Wind highs are livin
Well you all come cold
When we sell are soul

How - How does it - How does it feel?
How - How does it - How does it feel?
How - How does it - How does it feel?
Do you - Do you feel inclined?
Tense
Just tense
I got friends
Do you know
Not so easy as mine, is it?
Been (???) eyes
Go blind
How's your protocol?
In order to, uh,
Just beg, (??) show the times
In the wrong state of mind
Whaddaya mean? My lungs are fine
