Yes, CD, you are correct, sir-- BUTTHOLE SURFERS are not only one of my all-time VERY FAVORITES
EVER...
BUTT they are also one of THE most PSYCHEDELIC music groups of ALL TIME and that is NO JOKE.
Their music ranges from awful noisy feedback skronk to beautiful intergalactic intensity, and even sensitive emotional genius.
For MY money, their best years were from 1985-1989, before they signed with major-label CAPITOL Records, after which they had several popular "hits"...
BUTT if you can get your ears on some live bootlegs from their early years, the music is nothing short of FANTASTICALLY
MIND-BLOWING and INTENSE.
The early albums such as:
BROWN REASON TO LIVE
LIVE PCP PP EP
PSYCHIC... POWERLESS... ANOTHER MAN'S SAC
REMBRANDT PUSSY HORSE
LOCUST ABORTION TECHNICIAN (******)
HAIRWAY TO STEVEN
WIDOWERMAKER EP
INDEPENDENT WORM SALOON
...Are ALL nothing short of PURE PSYCHEDELIC
GENIUS
If you like adventurous music that can sometimes be a scary roller-coaster ride to the depths of your inner-most brain-warp--
It's like if you combined Jim Morrison's performance art with Jimi Hendrix's guitar mastery. Result: PURE BRILLIANCE.
Don Rico says "Check out BUTTHOLE SURFERS... You Be GLAD ya DID!!!"
P.S.: If anybody wants do do some trading, I have about 50 BUTTHOLE SURFERS bootlegs which are dangerous and potentially deadly...
At least enough to send one to the PSYCH-Ward...
So yeah...
BUTTHOLE SURFERS
TEXAS KINGS of HALLUCINOGENIC WEIRDNESS.
