IT'S OFFICIAL: the Melvins are coming!

BUST OUT SOME EARPLUGS >>>

As we reported in early June, the Melvins were rumored to perform Monday, Sept. 27 at Hell's Kitchen – set to pierce your five senses with droning metal riffs, gut-wrenching drums and bass, and some very strange sounds.

And then we waited for the official word. And waited. And drank a little. And waited some more.

Well, holy Buzzo! The word out of the Hell's Kitchen camp is that the show is on. Tickets are $16, and available at Ticketweb. It's for the 21 and older crowd only. And Totimoshi will be along for the ride, too.

And, to the joy of those who like their ears destroyed only on Hump Day, the Melvins and Totimoshi will perform an all-ages show Wednesday, Sept. 29 inside the Capitol Theater. Those tickets are $15 to $20 at Brown Paper Tickets.
