This album not appreciated by pets

Apart from begging for cheese slices, nothing unites our pets quite like their distaste for “LOCUST ABORTION TECHNICIAN,” the 1984 extreme punk album by BUTTHOLE SURFERS.
I know, because I listened to the album this weekend, with the girls away in Nevada and Jill in Wisconsin.
Listening to this album, it was easy to gauge the displeasure of LORELIE, MIKA and RORY -- particularly on the song “Hay.” The album’s fifth track, the sound effects on “Hay” infamously include the haunting bellows of animals at a slaughterhouse.
“Everything about this record is wrong,” wrote music critic John Doran. “In the 1980s -- among the post-hardcore and punk community in the United States -- there seemed to be a headlong rush to produce the most sonically extreme record possible. No one came close to rivaling this effort.”
The song “Human Cannonball” roars along like a punk anthem should.
Most of the other tracks are far less conventional.
The closing track, “22 Going on 23” features the voice of a radio talk-show caller describing her sexual assault.
The overall result, as writer Gabe Soria described it, is “a feeling of elated illness.”
The album is not for everyone, and even I can only handle it on certain occasions.
Make sure you keep it away from the pets, however. Based on my experiences, they just won’t like it.
