Release


Bullhead was originally released in 1991 on vinyl, CD and cassette. Boner Records re-released it on vinyl in 2015, paired with the previous album Ozma.[3]


Reception and legacy


The Japanese experimental band Boris took their name from Bullhead's first track.[4]

Rolling Stone ranked Bullhead #60 on their list of the all time greatest metal albums. They felt that it announced the Melvins as a metal band, citing lengthier songs, a more precise feel and "not so fried" production as reasons.[5]

They also felt "Your Blessened"'s "optimistic churn" set the way for future metal bands Baroness and Torche.[5]
