BUTTHOLE SURFERS - HAIRWAY TO STEVEN

The last full-length Butthole Surfers album of the 1980s marked a midway point in the band's career, straddling their psychedelic-noise roots and the more accessible recordings that followed it. Like Butthole Surfers' previous releases, Hairway to Steven uses nontraditional instrumentation, extensive tape editing, and sound modulation. Unlike its predecessors, which relied almost exclusively on a foundation of electric guitar, bass, and dual drummers, it makes equally heavy use of the acoustic guitar. Released April 1988 This was drummer Teresa Nervosa's final studio recording with Butthole Surfers.
