“I have loved the Melvins forever and their outlook on music. A chance to make an album of eclectic musical madness with them was truly an honour and a whole lot of fun, which surely is the whole point! Let’s do another one soon.” - Shane
“Napalm Death are one of my favorite bands ever. It was an absolute pleasure and a dream come true to do this collaboration with them. We wrote songs together. I would write a riff and we would learn it and record it right there. They wrote stuff and we would learn it immediately as well. It was truly a 50/50 partnership.” - Buzz
"Funny how life turns out sometimes... collecting hard-to-find Melvins 7-inches on Bleecker Street in 1989 and then touring twice and doing an album with them within the following 35 years. Had a great time with it all, and nice to work with fellow travellers in the Melvins who also couldn't care about pandering to 'demographics.' I felt myself almost babbling lyrically during the recording, and that alone made for very fun recording times." - Barney
Catch the Melvins at Sick New World in April, with a pair of California headlining dates surrounding the festival appearance. Napalm Death are currently on tour in Europe ahead of their North American trek later this Spring.
the six-song release features new music (and some not-so-new music) on digital, black vinyl, ipecac/band translucent red vinyl and the rough trade exclusive crystal fuchsia variant.
this follows their album the world is still here and so are we which was released in 2025.
catch the band on their mar-apr north american tour, and read what falco has to say about the upcoming release here...
"content. it drives the modern music world. photos. opinions. more photos. more opinions (please note - not all photos and opinions are bad, just 99 per cent of them). how about - and indulge me here - music? that content-y enough for you? fact is we can’t stop writing, at least at the moment. it’s fun (that’s all it needs to be). it’s the common denominator of band. only death will slow us down (note - it won’t stop us).
the idea for this release started as a bit of a stop-gap - a thing with which to help promote the north american tour - and ended up as something else entirely. ‘i know computer’ and ‘as a dad’ are new and are singles (they may make the next album, who can say, it’s already half-recorded and you will like it). damien probably likes ‘i am computer’ a bit too much but that’s okay, the heart wants what the heart wants.
‘spock culture’ and ‘hi! we’re on strike’ were recorded during the the world sessions. why didn’t they make the album? i’m not sure. lyrically they are important historical documents, up there with the pusheen the cat books and/or the US constitution.
‘fan learning difficulties’ and ‘that was my brain on elves’ have only had a digital release before and are, to quote british children from forty years ago, ‘skill’. hopefully you can agree that i - and by osmosis, all of us - have read a lot of books". - falco x
We’re excited to partner with Valve to bring the 72-track collection to vinyl and CD for the first time.
Originally released digitally in 11 chapters between 2020 and 2022, the “Half-Life: Alyx” soundtrack is available physically in a trio of formats:
· 6LP BOX SET - featuring all 72 pieces from the series on 180g vinyl. Includes a 24” x 48” poster and a download card, packaged in a lift-top box. Limited to 2000 copies and available in Ipecac webstores only (Blixt US, Townsend UK & Bandcamp)
· 4CD DIGIPAK - featuring all 72 pieces from the series in a foldout digipak.
· 2LP VINYL – featuring 21 “best of” pieces chosen by listeners spread across two 180g LPs in three variants: standard black with orange splatter, indie retail orange with black splatter, and Ipecac.com clear with orange and black splatter. Includes 24” x 48” poster and a download card of all 72 pieces.
Revisit all the Valve soundtracks we’ve released including “Portal 2: Songs to Test By”, “Fight Songs: The Music of Team Fortress 2”, “Dota 2”, “Counter Strike 2” and the “Half-Life” series!
“Better Than” encapsulates the new sound and feel of the record perfectly. It conveys the anger, frustration, and defiance of the moment.
Sonically, it is somehow sparse and stripped down yet complete and dense. A new wall of sound built only of the absolutely necessary elements.
I am so very excited to finally unleash what me and Mike been crafting.
Shout out to the whole squad for helping this one become a reality. So grateful for my brothers and sisters.
Expect to see us on the road with these new joints.
