  In July 2010, when Melvins performed "Civilized Worm" at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, they were riding a wave of renewed activity following the release of their album (A) Senile Animal in 2006. This album marked a significant point in their career as it was one of their first major releases after re-establishing the band's lineup with a more collaborative approach, featuring core members Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover, supplemented by the addition of Jared Warren and Coady Willis. The live performance at Bonnaroo showcased the band's unique blend of sludgy, heavy sounds intertwined with experimental elements, which had become their hallmark. Notably, the Melvins are known for their influence on the grunge scene and have inspired a diverse range of artists, underscoring their lasting impact within the rock genre.
