Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Butthole Surfers plunged into absolute sonic depravity with this deeply disturbing, surreal blend of noise rock and heavy sludge metal. Utilizing heavy tape manipulation, pitch-shifted vocals, and abrasive, Sabbath-inspired riffs, the record is a genuinely terrifying, humorous, and chaotic masterpiece of underground American pigfuck.
