8 STYLE: Let God Be Your Gardener

8 Revolutions Per Minute

With possession of an 8rpm turntable comes great responsibility. People need to know how screwed up their favorite songs sound at such a slow speed. Some songs sound great, others are disappointing, but most are just plain fantastic. One of the best examples of "how slow can you go" is the MELVINS. In general, their songs travel at a snail's pace. When played at 8 revolutions per minute... well, you'll just have to download the song and see for yourself.

LET GOD BE YOUR GARDENER - MELVINS


My first impression was that of a sword fight with a giant armor-plated worm. On second listen, I was able to pick out parts of the song.

What's funny with this song is that if you play it on 45, it sounds like RUSH.
