Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac

Butthole Surfers

A hallucinogenic collision of Texas punk and abrasive noise. Distorted vocals and tape-saturated guitars create a uniquely disturbing, darkly funny fever dream.

December 1984 · Touch And Go

Find on Amazon

A sun-baked, hallucinogenic fever dream that oscillates between slapstick humor and genuine terror.

Moments Worth Listening For
The grotesque sound effects of spitting and bodily functions that punctuate the rhythmic chaos of Lady Sniff.
The sudden shift from a bluesy stomp to absolute vocal hysteria during the climax of Butthole Surfer.
The hypnotic, repetitive guitar drone of Cherub that slowly dissolves into a wash of feedback and tape delay.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
