King Buzzo is the stage name used by Buzz Osborne (born Roger Osborne), best known as the lead guitarist with the Melvins, long-running proponents of the louder side of the alternative rock scene whose embrace of heavy guitars, big riffs, and slower tempos made them one of the key precursors of grunge. Throughout the Melvins' history, Osborne would go back and forth between the name Buzz Osborne and the nickname King Buzzo, and he used the latter handle for solo releases. In 1992, the three members of the Melvins each released solo EPs, modeled after the notorious Kiss solo albums of 1978: And in 2014, King Buzzo dropped his first solo album, an unplugged but heavy full-length titled This Machine Kills Artists. ~ Mark Deming
King Buzzo has also released music as a member of Mike & The Melvins.
