Ipecac Recordings Discography
Ipecac Recordings is an American independent record label founded in 1999 by Greg Werckman and Mike Patton. The label was established to release Patton's band Fantômas' self-titled début, allowing retention of "all the creative control". Its creation also provided the Melvins – friends of Werckman and Patton's – with a label. Ipecac has distributed material by other artists, including Isis, Dälek, and many of Patton's other projects and collaborations. Though the label's main output is rock and experimental music, it has also released DVDs, a book, soundtracks and a work of comedy. Alongside original content, it has been responsible for re-releasing older and imported recordings originally handled by other labels, as well as vinyl releases of later albums by Queens of the Stone Age.

Down With The Scene
''Down with the Scene'' is the second studio album by American electronic music artist Kid606. It was released on compact disc on June 20, 2000, as his first full-length album for Ipecac Recordings. Reception From contemporary reviews, John Bush of AllMusic noted that Kid606 "injects a much-needed sense of humor into the experimental/hardcore scene" which "may not be enough to warrant any more than two or three listens, but there's at least a 50–50 balance between senseless distortion and well-programmed tracks with a semblance of a groove." In ''The New Rolling Stone Album Guide'', critic Jon Caramanica referred to ''Down with the Scene'' as being "as ironic an electronic album as there is." ''Pitchfork'' placed the album at number 49 on its list of "The 50 Best IDM Albums of All Time", with Ned Raggett opining that Kid606 "helped upend IDM’s stereotype of bloodless astringency" and that the album was "a kaleidoscopic effort and a half. There's smooth swagger on “GQ on th ...

Kid606
Miguel Trost De Pedro (born July 27, 1979), better known by his stage name Kid606, is an electronic musician who was raised in San Diego and later moved to San Francisco. He is most closely associated with the glitch, IDM, hardcore techno and breakcore scenes. Kid606's music is similar to the work of his friend and colleague Lesser, as well as hardcore and IDM acts such as Atari Teenage Riot, Autechre, Mr. Oizo, and Matmos. He is primarily inspired not by his electronic contemporaries, but by his love of the industrial music, death metal, and industrial metal of the 1980s and 1990s, particularly bands like Godflesh and Napalm Death. His music is known for its high tempo breakbeats and liberal use of noise and sampling, as well as its punk aesthetic, uninhibited genre-mixing, and irreverent sense of humor. However, he is equally adept at creating more serious tracks that often reside in the realm of ambient and glitch ("Parenthood" from ''Kill Sound Before Sound Kills You'' and ...

The Kids Of Widney High
The Kids of Widney High is an American music group composed of students with mental disabilities from the special education J. P. Widney High School in Los Angeles, California, United States. History The band consists of students with physical and cognitive disabilities on vocals, with the instruments played by non-disabled teachers and friends. The group originally began as a song-writing class in 1988 taught by Michael Monagan, and has evolved since into two groups, one made up of graduates that performs in local clubs and the other a group of current Widney students in the songwriting class. The group gained a cult following, primarily thanks to their frequent live performances at larger Los Angeles venues like The Knitting Factory and Amoeba Music, as well as smaller venues such as Chain Reaction in Anaheim and The Smell in downtown LA. As a result, the group often plays at a number of ska and pop punk shows, including a stint on the Vans Warped Tour. The group has also o ...

The Bootlicker
''The Bootlicker'' is the eleventh studio album by the Melvins, released in 1999 through Ipecac Recordings. The album is the second part of a trilogy preceded by ''The Maggot'' and followed by ''The Crybaby''. The trilogy was later released on vinyl by Ipecac (''The Trilogy Vinyl'', IPC-011, November 27, 2000). Production ''The Bootlicker'' was conceived as a more pop-oriented album; ''The Maggot'' was marked by a traditional Melvins metal sound, while ''The Crybaby'' featured many guest appearances. Critical reception The ''Los Angeles Times'' wrote: "While ''The Maggot'' offers more familiar-sounding, metal-tinged sludge, ''The Bootlicker'' is a musically richer collection with rock, funk and jazz underpinnings." The ''Riverfront Times'' called ''The Bootlicker'' "one of the best rock albums of the year: truly beautiful and intelligently (but not pretentiously) presented." ''Tucson Weekly'' called it "subdued, dark and kind of pop-y sounding in spots." Track listing Personn ...

Melvins
Melvins (sometimes The Melvins) are an American rock band formed in 1983 in Montesano, Washington. Their early work was key to the development of both grunge and sludge metal. Initially, they performed as a trio but later also sometimes appeared as a quartet, with either two drummers or two bassists. Since 1984, vocalist and guitarist Buzz Osborne and drummer Dale Crover have been constant members. The band was named after a supervisor at a Thriftway in Montesano, where Osborne also worked as a clerk; "Melvin" was disliked by other employees, and the band's members felt it to be an appropriately ridiculous name. History Early years (1983–1987) Melvins were formed in early 1983 by Buzz Osborne (guitar, vocals), Matt Lukin (bass), and Mike Dillard (drums) who all went to Montesano Jr./Sr. High School in Montesano, Washington. In the beginning they played Jimi Hendrix and Who covers, and also began playing fast hardcore punk. When Dillard left the band, Dale Crover took his pl ...
