Sludge metal legends the Melvins put out two albums last year, Working With God and Five Legged Dog, but they don't seem to be slowing down too soon as drummer Dale Crover recently told WV Music that a new full-length record is in the works and will be released either later this year or next year. He also said that the record will include at least one guest appearance, from Dylan Carlson of Earth.

When asked if the Melvins were working on new material, Crover clarified: "I'm not sure how much I can say about it right now, because we don't know exactly when it's coming out. We're waiting, as everybody is, because of the backlog of people trying to get records made. But the album is something we've done while we've had all the time off, and all I can really say is I really like it a lot, and it's pretty bone-crushing. I can also say that 'Never Say You're Sorry' is a good indication of how the record will sound. If you like that one, then you'll enjoy the rest of the album."

While commenting on the future of the band, he said: "More shows! Some fun things are coming down the pike soon that we'll be announcing soon. As far as the tour, and more shows, we will be going all over. As far as the new album's release - hopefully, this year. If this all goes well, it'll this year, very soon, because we'd like to play the stuff live. That's all the excitement we've got going on in a time when up until recently, there was no excitement at all."
