Buzz Osborne & JD Pinkus launch Gatta Morta with surprise EP Burn Witch Burn

It’s always a pleasure to watch musical legends find new ways to make noise. When two titans of underground rock decide to join forces, the resulting energy is electric.

Buzz Osborne and Jeff Pinkus represent a deep well of idiosyncratic sound, having been crafting bugged-out noise rock together for roughly ten thousand years. Their individual legacies are steeped in the history of experimental music. Osborne has spent decades leading the iconic Melvins since 1983, while Pinkus has been a foundational member of the chaotic Butthole Surfers since 1985.

Now, these two musical architects have united their talents to form a new entity: Gatta Morta. This supergroup brings together decades of pioneering noise and experimental rock into a fresh, powerful combination.

The excitement is already palpable, as the band has released their first EP, showcasing the dynamic chemistry between Osborne and Pinkus. The music signals an exciting new chapter for two musicians who have defined the fringes of rock history.
