Over the weekend, Scion AV got together with experimental rock mainstays, The Melvins, to film the music video for their new release, which is a part of a full Melvins EP presented by Scion AV. We kept you up to date with live, behind the scenes photos from the set via Twitter and Instagram. Below is our full summary from the shoot!
The story flashes back a few decades to a time when the four Melvins members were just a group of mischievous misfits. Director Mark Brooks ran a very smooth and lighthearted set, creating the perfect atmosphere for the comedic story to be told.
