In 1985 they were still the sole province of hallucinogen-soaked punk rock freaks. By 1988 they had toured Europe, had records licensed internationally, and bought a house in Driftwood Texas to serve as their home base. But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Without anyone looking over their shoulders, the band really rose to the occasion with \u003cem\u003eLocust Abortion Technician\u003c\/em\u003e. From the opening track, 'Sweat Loaf,' which quotes Black Sabbath with results both hilarious and bowel-stomping, to the scuzz-guitar riven 'found' vocals of '22 Going on 23,' \u003cem\u003eLocust\u003c\/em\u003e is a non-stop face-full of hallucinogenic gas. Maniacal sludge guitar figures and Gibbytronix vocals are smeared everywhere, with most excellent results. For many folks. \u003cem\u003eLocust\u003c\/em\u003e represents the album with which the Buttholes fully fulfilled their insane potential.\" - Matador\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblack vinyl pressing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eremastered audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eoriginal release year: 1987\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Matador 2024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Butthole Surfers","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP","offer_id":41247218827354,"sku":"lp-15202","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/files\/butthole-locust-blackvinyl-1.jpg?v=1762285702","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/products\/butthole-surfers-locust-abortion-technician-remastered-vinyl-lp","provider":"turntablelab.mom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
