Boner Records was unaware that Lysol was a registered trademark until after the first batch of record jackets and CD booklets/back cards had already been printed. When they requested permission from the Reckitt Benckiser Corporation to use the name, permission was denied. Boner officially retitled the record Melvins and covered the word Lysol with black tape on the front of the jackets and booklets and with black ink on the spines. Early after the initial release, the tape and ink were easily removed, and many fans did so. Later, attempting to remove the tape would result in severe damage. Subsequent printings omitted the word Lysol entirely.

Even though there are no writing credits a long standing rumor is that bassist Joe Preston wrote the song With Teeth and that the name "Joe" printed on the back of the album was in a much larger font than "King Buzzo" or "Dale" because Osborne had grown weary of Preston's repeated requests to be allowed more input and given more credit. Preston was fired from the Melvins soon after Lysol was released. Joe Preston is a rock bass guitarist and a former band member of Earth and The Melvins. ...
