Collaboration between American rock band Melvins and Welsh dark ambient musician Brian Welsh professionally known as Lustmord, which released the album 'Pigs of the Roman Empire' in 2004 through Ipecac Recordings.
Speaking to Kerrang! in 2008, Melvins' founder Buzz Osborne remembered:
"I'd always liked what Lustmord did and I thought that doing a record with him would be a really good thing to do. A far as it being a collaboration, there are things on that record that are strictly 'us' and strictly 'him' but we never said which was which because we didn't want people to have any preconceived ideas. For example, we gave him 11 minutes of music and he came back with 22, which was exactly what we wanted him to do. But some parts are just me and Dale Glover nearing the end of our tether with Kevin Rutmanis and there are things that critics blamed Lustmord for when he's not even on the track! If I had to say 'buy these 5 records', then this would be one of them."
