Crazy Psychedelia (Helios Creed, Butthole Surfers and...?)

Maybe the recent London band Mollusc will manage to sound like they'd fit here on record> i was pretty impressed by them live.

I'm still looking for some live stuff by New Kingdom who I thought would be getting more & more like a black Chrome had they continued.

Odd bands like Terminal Cheesecake spring to mind too

i think the thing that always impressed me about the buttholes in particular was their ability to work "taboo" subject matter, toilet humour, hallucinatory ramblings, and freaky production techniques into a POP song. for some, but not all of those reasons, i think a lot of pavement is closer to prime buttholes than say.. boris or corrupted are.
best bits of bob pollard et al's circus devils compare favourably ( ataxia, ringworm interiors, five, mother skinny )

can anyone recommend me any ST 37 albums? I was looking for a copy of Glare on compact disc but that looks like that isn't going to happen...

nobody?

probably teaching y'all how to suck eggs, but thinking further i'm hearing the buttholes in:
Caroliner: strike them hard, rear end hernia puppet show, signatures banknotes, sabre waving saracen wall, rise of the common woodpile, cooking stove beast ( no jimi style guitar solos - hillbilly church organ & fiddle with helium voices, monster growls, caveman drums & lobotomised stephen hanley basslines).
bob drake: what day is it, little black train, 13 songs and a thing, the skull mailbox & other horrors, medallion animal carpet ( caroliner meets yes );
neil young: live rust ( Ok so maybe some of the songs here are played out / over familiar, but there's something about those spot on harmony backing vox vs the incredibly scrappy guitar on this that works in that way ).
the books: maybe homourless, but quaint matmos-y laptop glitch meets banjo & found dialogue snippet action. singing, tunes, songs, sweetness ( so if those things put you off...)
asa chang & junray: tsu gi ne pu: tabla, electronic gamelan, silly pop songs.
the red krayola: maybe too artsy / arch, but "father abraham" & "T(I,II)" and many others from their "chicago" period are super psychedelic art rock.
A.r.kane's "sperm travels like juggernaut" or the cocteau twins "ups" despite lack of toilet homour & distorted guitars have a buttholes-like low-slung waltzy feel that fits right in here.
hampton grease band "music to eat" long OOP but up on a million blogspots - beefhearty goofy blues / jazz rock with ranting & found lyrics.
nnck ( no neck blues band ): while their Godz-y improv rock is limited in scope, the caveman rituals captured on some of their recordings is grand and certainly more colourful / varied than whatever sludgy doom metal usually gets classified as buttholesy - maybe try "qvaris" & "letters from the serth";
and if you'd like some crosseyed electronica to complement your jackofficers lp, maybe try steve fisk's "over & thru the night" & "448 deathless days" - found sound & wonky ambient rock instrumentals, and herbie hancock's "sound system" crosseyed afrofusionist fairlightisms, & maybe material's "memory serves" - no-wavey 80's pop-rock-funk with sonny sharrock & fred frith on guitar.
harvey milk: "special wishes" commonly referred to as melvinsy but super epic (& sometimes poppy)downtuned rawk.
leary's cut on the "guitarrorists" compilation is awesome, helios creed's is OK in a martian pastoralia kinda way, albini's is embarrassing. the rest is "meh";
circle - finnish hypno rockers - i'd say seek "katapult", "tulikoira", "rautatie", & "triumph".
& pere ubu's "chinese radiation" is probably everything "jonny smoke" should have been, minus the playground humour.
of course there's a million bands working the "comb" / aggro / sludge side of the buttholes (punch "butthole" into the aquarius records search engine ), violent students / twin stumps / clockcleaner / rusted shut / tia carrere et al. but i feel like they're missing the ineffable "otherworldy" aspect i always got from the prime buttholes stuff.
oh and if you don't hate pop - flaming lips " transmissions..." & "clouds taste metallic" - colourful, bottom heavy records with some squealing guitar.
i dunno - see how you go.

Any new bands influenced by Chrome/Helios Creed/Butthole Surfers?

oh and I saw to D.A.M's request upthread btw

one of my all time favorite threads

I think New KIngdom were moving in a direction that had them sounding like a Black CHrome, so am wondering what th e3rd lp would have sounded like. Could be the Lumberjacks' production mixed with samples of early 70s heaviosity but I'm defrinitely getting taht idea from listening to them.
So Paradise Don't Come Cheap might be worth looking at, probably even more so if anybody turned up any live material by them since they played live with a band, not just a dj.

I've tried to turn noise rock dudes onto New Kingdom, it never seems to work. I just kind of need everyone on earth to understand how great they are.

If u like butthole surfers or some trippy,weird shit make sure to check these bands:
Alice Donut,Boredoms,captain beefheart,cherubs,chrome,the mike gunn,cows,crust,ed hall,fuckemos,meat beat manifesto,mr bungle,pain teens,residents,royal trux,star pimp,steel pole bath tub,sweet pea,brutal juice,bunny brains,ohm,the bevis frond,

<3 this thread

New ST 37 album I'm Not Good is very much in this vein. Also on Spotify!

ST37 is touring with Acid Mothers Temple

I know! I hope to catch them in Detroit at the end of April!

That was a rad show btw

This might legit be better than anything the Buttholes or Chrome or Hawkwind has ever done. Listening to it makes me feel like 1) my brain is completely anesthetized and 2) my brain is on fire.

That was v cool, so wonky & fucked & chill

How about Degreaser? Reminds me a little bit of High Rise etc, with some early Human Eye style vocals. Maybe a little bit of "Guitars from Agadez" influence.
