So this is intriguing: over the weekend, the Brooklyn venue Acheron announced a show headlined by “the Big Easy Sludge All Stars” on November 16. The show also features locals Trenchgrinder and Syphilitic Lust.

The show’s flyer, below, describes the heretofore-unknown Big Easy Sludge All Stars as “featuring members of Down, Mystick Krewe of Clearlight, Melvins and Outlaw.” (UPDATE: There’s no Melvins member involved. It was a mistake on the initial flyer and the new flyer can now be seen below.) You may also recall that Eyehategod — which features Jimmy Bower of Down and the Mystick Krewe of Clearlight, and who recently played the Housecore Horror fest with Dale Crover of Melvins on drums — are about to hit the Northeast for a few dates. The band is playing Saint Vitus on 11/14 (tickets), but the show on the November 16 is listed as “TBA at TBA”. Oh, and the Acheron show has a $25-per-ticket presale already going. You do the math.

Eyehategod announced their permanent replacement drummer on Friday. Check out the full set of upcoming Eyehategod dates, and the show flyer, below.

In related news, the new Melvins album “Tres Carbones” is streaming at Pitchfork Advance.
