American experimental rock band Butthole Surfers was founded by Gibby Haynes and Paul Leary in San Antonio, Texas in 1981. With a unique blend of punk, psychedelic, and alternative rock, they have carved out their own distinct sound.

The current lineup consists of founding members Gibby Haynes (vocals) and Paul Leary (guitar), as well as Jeffrey "King" Coffey (drums) and Jeffrey Pinkus (bass). Over the years, the band has seen various changes in its lineup, with notable past members including Teresa "Nervosa" Taylor, Nathan Calhoun, Owen McMahon, Kytha Gernatt (Cabbage), Mark Kramer, Trevor Malcolm, Terence Smart, Bill Jolly, Brad Perkins, Quinn Matthews, Scott Matthews, Andrew Mullin,and Scott Stevens.

Known for their wild live performances and controversial lyrics [not mentioned], Butthole Surfers have gained a dedicated fanbase over the years. Their albums like "Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac" and "Locust Abortion Technician" are considered influential works within the experimental rock genre. With their boundary-pushing music and unpredictable stage presence [not mentioned], Butthole Surfers continue to captivate audiences worldwide.

New Wave / Post Punk

Weird Revolution is the eighth studio album by the band, released on Surfdog Records and Hollywood Records. It is in large part a rerecorded version of an earlier album, tentatively entitled After the Astronaut, that was abandoned in 1998. The Surfers teeter on the brink of conventional rock values. However, throughout the album, singer Gibby Haynes drives the proverbial truck into the ditch with rambling psychotic speeches.
