Buzz Osborne is a creative and prolific songwriter. As a founding member of the band the Melvins, he became one of the most influential figures in the Pacific Northwest alternative rock scene starting in the 1980s. His unique approach to guitar and melodies was a major influence on the grunge community, including influencing his friend, Kurt Cobain. Buzz continues performing and touring with the Melvins and plays guitar with the experimental metal group Fantômas – featuring Mike Patton of Faith No More – and another side project, Venomous Concept – a collaboration with Shane Embury of Napalm Death and Kevin Sharp of Brutal Truth. He has performed on albums by Lustmord and Tool and produced projects by the Cows and Goatsnake. In recent years, Buzzo has also established himself as a solo artist, releasing two acoustic albums under the King Buzzo moniker.
