    Sugar Daddy Live reveals a picture of a storied band that is still finding ways to reinvent itself.

    For fans of the present day version of the Melvins, this is essential listening. For those who haven't heard the band in a while, you're in for one hell of a surprise.

    Frontman King Buzzo's guitar is searingly loud and untethered to studio tricks, more weapon than instrument, making 13 deadly songs even more venomous.

    Sounding better than most of their studio-recorded output, Sugar Daddy's dark riffs are so sludgy you'll have to wash them before allowing them home. [18 Jun 2011, p.52]
