On This Day: April 18, 1986 - Butthole Surfers Released Rembrandt Pussyhorse
On this day April 18, 1986, Butthole Surfers released their second studio album Rembrandt Pussyhorse. Known for their chaotic style and unpredictable sound, the band pushed their experimental boundaries even further with this bizarre and unsettling release.

Rembrandt Pussyhorse reached number 9 on the UK Indie Chart and featured a twisted mix of distorted vocals, psychedelic noise, and surreal production. Tracks like Creep in the Cellar and Strangers Die Every Day showcased the band’s offbeat approach to songwriting, often blending humor and horror into a single track.

This album marked a shift from their punk roots into something even weirder and more abstract, solidifying their reputation as one of the most unconventional bands in the underground scene.

Fun fact: The band recorded some of the album in a studio that doubled as an abandoned movie theater, which added to the strange echo and haunted feel of the songs.

Trivia question: What 1986 album by Butthole Surfers reached number 9 on the UK Indie Chart and is known for its surreal and experimental sound?
