There was a period when these guys were known as 'Your favorite band's favorite band.' They were -never- going to be a huge commercial success, and they really didn't care. Even named themselves something that you just couldn't say on TV. Watching news anchors squirm while complaining about 'The BH Surfers' was always good for a laugh. Even better when one of them actually managed to -say- 'butthole' on air. They were an amazing band that did whatever they felt like and ran with it.

This song dominated the summer of 1996. In fact, according to Billboard magazine, it was the #1 Alternative song of 1996, beginning its three-week run at #1 on the Alternative chart on July 6, 1996. It was also one of the Top 100 Mainstream Rock songs of 1996, coming in at #77 on that year-end chart. It never charted on the Hot 100, though, because it was never released as a single for sale, and airplay-only songs did not qualify for the Hot 100 until the end of 1998. Amazingly, however, it did reach the Top 40 on the Hot 100 Airplay (supplemental) chart, peaking at #27 on July 27, 1996. It also barely missed the Top 40 on the Radio & Records CHR Airplay chart, peaking at #42 on August 16, 1996. This means that some brave Top 40 stations gave this song airplay in spite of the band's name.

He was the father of Butthole Surfers frontman Gibby Haynes. Just a bit from Wikipedia.

The Butthole Surfers have been around since 1981. I bought my first Butthole Surfers record in 1985. This song is from the mid 90s, WAY later in their career. You should start with their first album ‘Pee Pee The Sailor/A Brown Reason To Live’, then go on from there to ‘Psychic … Powerless … Another Man’s Sac’, as well as their EP ‘Cream Corn From The Socket Of Davis’. Other great Butthole Surfers albums are ‘Rembrandt Pussyhorse’, ‘Locust Abortion Technician’, and ‘Hairway To Steven’. They were basically the punk rock Grateful Dead; as they and their fans were heavily into psychedelics. I’ve seen them many times since the 80s, all over the country. They are one of my favorite bands.

@@palelinda1 I don’t recall when they went on, but they did a hell of a set. Most acts were great. Only ones I didn’t care for, Rollins Band, definitely didn’t do anything for me. Jane’s Addiction was headliner, and they were ok, but wasn’t special. Everyone else was fantastic.

I always considered it as a Tribute to people who they have known who have died. A similar concept would be Jim Carrol's "People Who Died".

With a group name like Butthole Surfers this unusual music sound is not an accident , it's destiny.
