The Melvins have announced their latest project titled Five Legged Dog, releasing October 15 via  Ipecac Recordings. Much like a greatest hits or essentials album, the LP will feature 36 acoustic renditions of the band’s career-spanning hits including “Lovely Butterfly,” “Boris,” “Bad Pope,” “Billy Fish” and “Night Goat.” It will also feature covers as well such as The Rolling Stones’ “Sway,” Alice Cooper’s “Halo of Flies” and Fred Neil’s “Everybody’s Talking.” See the full tracklist below.

“I knew I wanted to do something ridiculously big,” said Buzz Osborne in a press release. ”36 songs reimagined by us acoustically is certainly ridiculous but it works. The magic of the songs is still there regardless of it being acoustic. Since we weren’t touring we had the time to do something of this size. I’m very excited about this record. Dale and Steven did a fantastic job on this. I think it’s a very special record. I can’t think of anyone else who’s done something like this.”

The newly announced album follows the release of their latest song “The Great Good Place” earlier this year ahead. The band also contributed to the “Protect Live Music” live stream event in April alongside Glass Animals, Manchester Orchestra and Spoon.
