Butthole Surfers
 

I've been listening to Butthole Surfers since a little while and I want to buy an album of them. As I saw on this forum, many of you like this band. I just wanna know which album is the best :)

locust abortion technician

the one with pepper on it is crap.
get locust abortion technician.

would you like me to up you a track from it?

I only have Sweat Loaf and Human Canonball from this album. If you to send me the best songs of the album let's go :D

Just buy the Blind Eyes Sees All movie.

sweet loaf is the best song off the album

Locust Abortion Technician is the most concise one, Rembrant Pussyhorse is a close second, and Psychic Powerless is probably the one you should get after those two. Those are the only ones i have, but i would go in that order.

I went in the opposite order and preference.

locust abortion technician was my favorite for so long, but last time i listened to it, i thought it was a bit inconsistent.

on the other hand, i always thought hairway to steven was boring but the last time i listened to it, i thought it was brilliant and better than locust abortion.

so both, psychic powerless is also awesome...brown reason to live is also great as it is more punk rock.

I always thought Rembrandt Pussyhorse was the most accessible.

THey are one of those bands who have some great songs, and then have some fucking annoying ones that never needed to be recorded.

I love them all. their later records are a different kind of beast but I still love independent worm saloon which will blast you with rock and I love em all nearly

I would get

Psychic Powerless Another Man' Sac
hairway To Steven
Live PCPPEP (EP)
Brown Reason To Live (EP)
Locust Abortion technicians

and the live bootleg
The Hole Truth & Nothing Butt

and the DVD which I am so glad got released on DVD
Blind Eye Sees All

How odd. I had the exact same thoughts when listening to both of them again recently.

hairway tyo steven is damn near perfect in it's hallucinatory insanity

I LOVE the bowling sounds at the end of Jimi, the first song

I haven't listened to "Hairway..." in years. No-one can deny the fabness of "Jimi", and I remember liking too "X-Ray Of A Girl" and "Johnny Smoke". My own fave BH Surfers thing is the "Creamed Corn From The Socket Of Davis" 12-inch - all-killer no filler with the likes of "Too Parter", "Tornadoes", "Moving To Florida", and "Comb" (better known as "Lou Reed"). Must also mention the greatness of their song "Gary Floyd" (apparently inspired by the singer of the Dicks...(

yep yep

I also like the widowermaker EP which has Bong Song, Helicopter, Colored FBI Guy



My body and my brain have parted
I hope I'm together when I die

That Comb track is fucking amazing. Wish I still had it.

I think that was the point when I stopped buying their stuff. Although I'm sure I've missed a lot of quality since then.

well, after widowermaker they learned to play their instruments!

ha ha

really though, independent worm saloon has some of the best loud driving music, thrusting RAWK to hit 90 mph to.


but this fan video of DUM DUM set to snakehandlers is amazing

You'll probably have to send me a PM to remind me, but I can sort out a copy for ya.
