Members of the Melvins<\/a>, Butthole Surfers<\/a>, Big Business, and Mr. Phylzzz have formed a new supergroup called Gatta Morta.<\/p>\n

Osborne said of the supergroup, \u201cIt\u2019s always a good time for the world to embrace a new heavy\/weird band. I had the idea for Gatta Morta while touring last fall. I realized I needed to start a band with these three. Seemed like a no brainer. Solidly weird rock music that needs to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pinkus added, \u201cIt\u2019s been way too long since I got to write a heavy album from scratch with such high caliber players with such complimentary styles\u2026 and we\u2019re just cat scratching the surface of what we got goin\u2019 on!\u201d<\/p>\n

The band has surprise released its debut EP, Burn Witch Burn, alongside a visualizer for its lead single, \u201cBlack Hall.\u201d The song brings to mind the doom metal-driven era of the Melvins around the time of Lysol mixed with the macro-scale heavy metal thunder of Big Business circa\u00a0Here Comes the Waterworks.<\/p>\n

The unveiling of Gatta Morta comes as the Melvins are in the midst of a North American tour with Tomahawk<\/a>, with tickets available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
