To anyone who doesn't know the Melvins... they're your favourite band's favourite band.

Buzz is a low key riff lord. He doesn’t get enough love for his riffage.

Of course Buzz Osborne films this on a potato in a cabin. Underrated guitarist for sure also funny and a humble guy. 🤘😂

I can relate to "i dont read music, i dont write music, never took lesson".

Buzz is one of my heroes. An unpretentious eccentric that somehow keeps churning out awesome material for decades, and who sadly has never gotten the due respect, including from those in Rock 'n' Roll's 'underground' scenes.

"It's hard to build a box around yourself, and then climb out of it. It's better to start outside the box." Now that's wiisdom!

I love the fact that within 2 minutes he went from the topic of the video to explaining some experimental tunings and various general topics. Buzz show us how to live

One of my favorite memories is smoking weed with my friends and the Melvin's by the railroad tracks in Austin before their gig at the Electra club in 94 I be-leave.

Seeing Buzz always reminds me of the pic with him, Adam Jones and Mike Patton on splash mountain

why buzz is filming this on unabomber's cabin

King Buzzo never fails to surprise and delight me. The Melvins are one of the greatest bands and they're still grinding. Buzz is absolutely correct about playing guitar; you gotta get hooked first. He's also dead on about Jimi; nothing he did would ever be taught the way he played, but that's what happens when you break all the rules and start outside the box. Wisdom from Buzz!

Buzz Osborne... clicked

Buzzo's a real guitar player. He knows how to sound good. Corgan is like that, from the Smashing Pumpkins, with that tone grip like a real guy. It comes from actually listening to oneself, as opposed to just typing it out like so many do.

Being Underrated is the Melvins' aesthetic

Buzz is just a crazy dude. 😂 We love his entire career 💯

Buzz's attitude is awesome. Learn how you can and work on techniques as you go. You gotta get hooked first.

What a fucking legend.

back in the early 80s i knew the guitar player for a punk band called The Boys from Nowhere. he had a 1961 tele that had the pickups wired directly to the input jack. no knobs.

Never in my life have I witnessed such crushing heaviness like when I saw The Melvins 20 years ago at The Metro in Chicago

I love Buzz! He’s one of a kind. Albeit his music isn’t for everyone, but for me, definitely a major influence on my playing early on. Not to mention he opened a whole underworld of music for me, that I probably would’ve never heard if not for him going out of his way to plug his favorite artists and bands.

Buzz and the Melvins one of my favorite musicians and band. the first time I heard gluey porch treatments I was a hooked. They tour all the time. I’ve seen them more then any other band.

Buzz should start his own twitch stream he'd make a killing just doing this and being himself ! Was really hoping to hear him do the honey bucket riff.

I think Hooch is my favorite Melvins' riff. It has such a unique character to it.

Good to see you doing well.

He speaks right into and right out of my heart. What I love this man, what I appreciate him!

Buzz is a national treasure. A rare, humble badazz!

he explains it all on everyone’s level, he is a badass on guitar, he’s doing it bc it’s fun, the spirit & he obviously has a built in ability picking it uo later than most, he doesn’t put himself above the audience. All the albums speak for themselves. Pick one put it on & sit back

cool seeing him mention let god be your gardener. always been one of my favorite tracks of theirs

BUZZZZZZ!!! Met you a few years back at a ball game! Nicest guy ever! LOVE your music! Keep it up and it was a pleasure meeting you!

I want learn to play guitar from the King Buzzo easy guitar lessons on VHS! 😂🤘🏻

A History of Bad Men and Joan of Arc are sich killer riffs that aren’t discussed enough with the Melvins

I believe it was 96 on foo fighters first tour and Melvins opened for them. This was in Memphis Tn. Was a great performance.just turned 14 and saw that show and Veruca Salt a few months earlier. That was a great summer 👍

Legend. I think the riff in The Smiling Cobra is the greatest riff he's written so far. There are a ton of awesome riffs in the Melvins' music though: The Bloated Pope. Hooch. Anaconda. Evil New War God. Night Goat...

Love that Buzz mentioned Dead Boys they have some underrated guitar riffs.

i love this guy, so underrated fr

I got to record in Johnny Winter's personal booth at Streeterville in the early 90s. He's my favorite blues guitarist.

Sideshow Bob rocks

Say them in a bar called "Cicero's Basement Bar" in St. Louis back in 1995. That's when I became a loyal fan.

I can relate to the guitar teacher thing. Many years ago, the first teacher I had said 'you will never be able to play guitar properly because you can't hold your riff hand correctly. Your thumb is in the wrong spot on the neck." I quit lessons and learned on my own with Guitar magazines afterwards.

HAIL TO THE KING

Stellar human being! 🖤🖤🖤

I have the same camera quality😂

KING BUZZO

Awesome johnny winter song!!,..Great riff

your such an amazing guitar player man huge influence on me

You ROCK Buzz! 🤘😎

master of riffs

Legend.

That's what do for friends that wanna learn guitar. I tune it to drop D after a few minutes and everyone always smiles and really get into it😜👍

I love Buzz. He's so demented..

please do this again but in person i love buzz

I started on guitar, gave up, went to drums but always worked on guitar. I love playing weird tunings too, dadgad is one I've been using lately

Gracias

I fucking love this man through and through.

If you ever liked Nirvana and/or Kurt Cobain, please understand that chances are actually really, really good that it never would have happened if it weren't for Buzz Osbourne. Impossible to say, but he was there for Kurt at a time when he was beginning to not only fall in love with punk rock but also take the whole music thing seriously. And Buzz was as much a teacher as he was a mentor and friend during that time.

YAS!

I cant believe how the melvins are still this good

King Buzzo is a rock and roll GOD love him!

That room looks like it’d be very cold in the winter

The way he’s describing the riff that made home pick up the guitar, is the same way hearing the melvins for the first time hit me

Legend

Underrated guitar player

Legendary

Everyone is complaining about the webcam audio but honestly it adds to it.

Love Billy Fish riff

A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

You and Bubbles would hit it off great!😃

Nice

Buzz invented grunge

Screwing around with various places to put your fingers on the guitar

You ,Buzz, are a sick man, not sure how to help, I kinda like it!

Melvins!!!🤘😆🤘

Excellent commentary on technique @ 3:21

Johnny Winter! Mean tone on that 1970’s record.

Melvins top 10 for sure .

I went to Mud Fest '93 to see Mudhoney. I didn't have a clue about The Melvins back then. what I remember: They were loud and heavy!

Incredible tone from Buzz always

The free day ready to cheev like a sordid ray!!!!

Could watch him noodle around all day

Johnny Winter, Beaumont, TX legend right there.

I would love to have him as a guitar teacher

Love that he mentioned rock bottom

Dude why havent they made guitars without knobs , I mean this is the first I've ever seen looks rad

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️........etc....inspirational

Feel like I’m watching a video from 2009

This was recorded in 1998. I love phantomas.

I had a girlfriend who lived in a musty old cabin at donner lake near Tahoe. That place got like twenty feet of snow in the winter and didn't see the sun for five months at a time. The carpet in that place looked just like his curtains.

What's the tuning mentioned at the end? ??DGBe

King Buzzo!

Godfather of Sludge and Grunge

I need moooore

I need this but like four hours long please.

I like how he mentions smoke on the water and then the video skips that part.

Buzz is a true original.

Haha what a legend

Buzz is more than good....Damn.

His method is the best. Think outside the box and then get into the hard stuff later on. Outside is more fun though.

I wish the audio and video was better quality. I really enjoy watching king buzzo play riffs

Huge Melvins fan but I wish the audio quality was a little better
