CATEGORY: ACID PUNK | DURATION: 34 MINUTES
A continuous trip of psychedelic noise-rock riffs, hallucinatory tape collages and sick drug-twisted humour which at its peak achieves a true level of delirium, a highly desirable state for those to seek to affirm life’s abject futility by howling and babbling at the night. Locust Abortion Technician is a record of Butthole Surfers at the outer edges of experimental acid punk, and yet another album which marks 1986 as a crucial year for cutting-edge music of all persuasions.
