Photographer: Macioce. From its bizarre cover art to its absurd title to its gleefully chaotic and thematically offensive songs, the Butthole Surfers' 1985 full-length debut, PSYCHIC...POWERLESS...ANOTHER MAN'S SAC, perfectly exemplifies the Texas-spawned ensemble's twisted, ungodly aesthetic. On this wildly unhinged first outing, frontman Gibby Haynes and guitarist Paul Leary lead listeners on a surreal exploration of rock's sub-basement, occasionally surfacing in a nightmarish brothel (the sinisterly obscene "Concubine" and the humorously vulgar "Lady Sniff"), a seedy punk/rockabilly club (the Dead Kennedys-esque "Butthole Surfer" and the revved-up "Mexican Caravan") and other strange locales. Throughout this amazingly odd journey, Haynes caterwauls and croons through layers of electronic vocal distortions, and Leary responds in kind with skittering and squealing guitar lines that careen over frequently pummeling, near-tribal rhythms. Though many fans swear by REMBRANDT PUSSYHORSE or LOCUST ABORTION TECHNICIAN as the group's finest record, those who appreciate these Lone Star misfits in their most unrefined state will usually site PSYCHIC as their favorite Butthole Surfers concoction.
