Really? I love the Melvins but many of their songs do deviate into one simple riff played over and over and over again, slowly as possible. I can see how that'd bore someone. Their early work, while still a bit sluggish, is creative as hell though. They always throw in all these little awesome changes out of nowhere in their songs. You kinda have to pay attention to their stuff, though, which I'm sure a lot of people don't really do. Most people I know treat pretty much all music as "background" music.
