Lately I've Been Playing this LOUD + OFTEN.... Submitted on: 2007-04-02 |

REMBRANDT PUSSYHORSE is the 2nd full-length by the Butth*le Surfers. I do prefer this over LOCUST ABORTION TECHNICIAN. I just think there is more variety, more spaceyness, & overall better songs(besides Human Cannonball on Locust). Yes, REMBRANDT PH is really a lot of experimentation, even more so than other Surfer albums. This Re-release adds the Cream Corn EP. Some different instruments are on this which include a piano, a organ, and a violin played backwards on opening track: "Creep In the Cellar." It sounds really great and makes for an interesting listen, maybe challenging listen for some.
It's really hard to describe their music to someone who has never heard it before: LSD madness trip psychadelia post-punk? Maybe I don't know just really spacey, seems fresh compared to other bands Iv'e heard in the '80s. A band that may have been influenced came out around the same time that I can think of is Scratch Acid.
I love lead-vocalist Gibby Haynes' manic screams all over the album.
There are two songs that always bring a smile to my face when I hear them, "Moving to Florida," & "Perry" psychotic laughter in this song; Gibby also says Cancer about six times & yells; a little crazy sure, but funny too. This also features a cover of "American Woman" w/ supercompressed drums. "Mark Says Alright" features a dirgy heavy bass put to a female pit-bull barks!
Just psychotic and nuts! all around. -4 stars

REMBRANDT PUSSYHORSE Submitted on: 2006-03-04 |

This is the most complex and intelligent CD to come out of the '80's post-punk scene. The Buttholes were funny and violent and weird both before and after REMBRANDT PUSSYHORSE, but they were never as cohesive. This is not a scary CD, it's just powerful.
The addition of the CREAM CORN ep is nice but it messes up the tone.

It'll find you when you're ready Submitted on: 2006-02-13 |

| This was the first Butthole Surfers' album I bought on my own; a friend had introduced me to them a few months before with "Independent Worm Saloon" and "Pioughed", so I felt I was ready to venture into the unknown, unassisted. The reverbed drums and the backwards fiddle on "Creep In The Cellar" should have warned me away, but it made me crave more; years later, when I found out the secret behind the fiddle, makes me more appreciate its presence and it's vitality to the song. Then, what completely blew me away was "American Woman", absolutely the finest cover song ever recorded by any band. As for more insight, I'll have to update this once I get my new copy of the CD in the mail, since I lost the tape I had and it has been a while since I heard this album... |

| America's most sonically demented band abandons the ordinary punk rock structure and and makes a soundtrack for a fun house in outer space. Rembrandt may not the the Surfers' most accomplished record, but it is probably their strangest, which is saying alot given the rest of their catalog. High points are their bent take on the Perry Mason theme, the double drummers on "Whirling Hall Of Knives", the backwards fiddle squiggling thru "Creep In the Cellar", and of course, their cubist cover of "American Woman" which would make Lenny Kravitz widdle in his vinyl pants. The Cream Corn EP is included with the CD, which makes this a great buy, as at least half of it is essential Surfers. I'll take this moment as I have in the past to lament the sad, sellout demise of this band, who went out like a popcap gun instead of a shotgun. |

it's Butthole Surfers alright... Submitted on: 2005-06-13 |

i would give it 3.5 stars, but i rounded up to be nice.
those of you looking for ElectricLarryLand material, this is not it. This isn't the newer techno-y Weird Revolution crap either. it's not as trippy as Humpty Dumpty LSD, but it's sort of close.
I'd recommend it to anyone who digs the butthole surfers. It's not real expensive, worth the buy. |
