Psychic…Powerless…Another Man’s Sac Butthole Surfers SKU: LBV03 Barcode: 697410000319 17.00 £17.00 Genre: Alternative Rock / Punk Rock / Emo Label: Latino Bugger Veil Released Date: 30th September 2013 Buying Format: 1LP Includes Download Code Out of stock Back Order Add to your Wishlist Description Product Info Latino Bugger Veil presents the long-awaited vinyl reissues of Butthole Surfers’ first four full-length albums. Originally released between 1984 and 1988, these classic and influential LPs capture the band at their peak, drawing from punk, rock, psychedelic and experimental influences for a truly inspired and unmistakably unique sound. The Surfers’ Touch and Go debut remains their highlight for many fans, an inspired blast of ugly noise, knowing idiocy, drugged-out insanity and some backhanded surprises. Haynes is still relatively interpretable here; the vocal distortions are only on a few songs, like the opening “Concubine,” and what one can’t quite understand one can still sense. The band’s self-production brings out the mighty rumbles of drummers Coffey and Nervosa and Leary’s avant-junkyard guitar work with clarity and a big, thick punch. Leary begins with screwy blues and gentle strums, then cranks up the amps and lets fly. The band also officially recorded their semi-theme song “Butthole Surfer,” after which they were accidentally named; the bizarro backing vocals and sudden sped-up shifts at the end are just part of the oddities on display. “Negro Observer” is one of the most straightforward, calmest songs of the bunch, and even that’s saying something, with Haynes going off about the title characters — described as aliens coming to “count heads in singles bars” — like a barely stable street crazy, insane laughter and all. When it comes to full-on craziness, though, nothing beats the obscene “Lady Sniff,” which sounds like an amped-up blues act fronted by a 100-year-old man, and the hallucinatory “Mexican Caravan,” with Haynes raving about “that heroin BROWN!” The nods to rock history are subtle but present, from the Black Sabbath-quoting (specifically “Children of the Grave”) opening rhythm of “Dum Dum” to the fried Tex/Mex-ranting of “Gary Floyd,” written about the legendary Dicks bandleader. However, the Surfers’ crazy blend is completely distinctive, taking punk and the inspiration of their acid-addled Texas forebears to new heights. ~ Ned Raggett Comes with coupons for free digital downloads.
