About this album
Houdini is the Melvins’ breakthrough album and one of the key heavy records of the 1990s. Released in 1993, it pushed their slow, crushing sound into wider view, balancing doom-metal weight with grunge-era bite and an off-kilter sense of humour. Produced by Garth Richardson, the album became their major-label calling card and helped shape the sludge and stoner rock template for generations that followed. Its enduring reputation rests on the band’s punishing riffs, warped dynamics and the presence of standout cuts such as Honey Bucket and Hooch, which turned their underground authority into lasting influence.
