Ever wanted an all acoustic album from Buzz Osborne of the Melvins? Because you’re getting one. The frontman has a new all acoustic album coming out titled This Machine Kills Artists that will be accompanied by a tour this summer. You can stream a track from the album titled “Instrument of God” in the Soundcloud stream below. It sounds pretty aggressive as far as acoustic tracks go and will certainly interest Melvins fans.
