Review

Rolling Stone (12/26/96, p.190) - "...underneath the overheated-amp noise and megaphone-vocal gargling of the bad old days, the Butthole Surfers were basically a hot Texas-boogie band with a primitivist lead singer. In that sense, ELECTRICLARRYLAND is squarely in the tradition."
Spin (6/96, pp.111-112) - 7 - Flawed Yet Worthy - "...the Buttholes emerged from the rubble of deconstruction better musicians, if trapped in the no-man's land between tribute and irony....ELECTRICLARRYLAND is the rock-solid rock album you knew they always had in them..."
Entertainment Weekly (6/21/96, p.66) - "...there's enough weirdness in the album's punk, pop, psychedelic, and trip-hop to satisfy the heaviest acid casualty." - Rating: B
Q (7/96, p.107) - 3 Stars - Good - "...the Texans have mutated into a self-consciously weird mainstream band....another pleasant...agglomeration of the sweetly freaky,...the doomily menacing,...the skewed and grungy....and the nuttily kitsch..."
Option (9-10/96, p.96) - "...this is a great record. Perhaps more than any other band to emerge from the post-punk underground, the Austin combo has grown to incorporate a wild range of influences--from rap to industrial to country rock--without losing any of the perverse intensity that's driven their music..."

Title Note

Additional personnel: Fooch (pedal steel guitar); John Hagen (cello); Mark Eddinger (keyboards); Andrew Weiss, Bill Carter (bass); Danno Saratak (drum programming).

Producers: Paul Leary (tracks 1-2, 5, 8, 11-13); Steve Thompson (tracks 3-4, 6-7, 9-10).

Engineers: Stuart Sullivan (tracks 1-2, 4-5, 8, 11-13); Chris Shaw (tracks 3, 6-7, 9-10).

The notorious Butthole Surfers continue their onslaught of gloriously twisted guitar rock on ELETRICLARRYLAND. Singer Gibby Haynes is like a skid-row bum in a Kabuki theater, donning the masks of various characters and investing all of them, from the psychedelic shaman of "Pepper" to the apocalyptic ranter of "Birds," with trailer-park trashiness. The other Surfers match Haynes step for step, generating an unrelenting barrage of organized chaos.

Over the course of their decade-plus tenure as kings of bizarro avant-punk, these Texans have learned to temper their freneticism with a more reserved, if equally skewed, sensiblility. Toward this end, "Let's Talk About Cars," with its low-key atmospherics, and the almost pastoral "Pepper" provide a welcome contrast to the band's famous sonic assault.
