They perform under the name 'Melvins Lite' with Trevor Dunn on stand-up bass and under the name 'Melvins 1983' with Dale on bass instead of drums, in reference to the early incarnation of the band circa 1983 before Dale played the drums in the band. Their current bassist is Steven McDonald. Throughout their 30+ years career they have had a rotating cast of more than 10 bass players and have released more than 20 studio albums.
