Uncut - p.84

5 stars out of 5 -- "[P]robably the Buttholes' finest work....They're best remembered as purveyors of the best sort of '70s excess."

Uncut - 8/01, p.114

"...The Buttholes were never quite this strange again..."

Alternative Press - 7/95, p.83

Ranked #28 in AP's list of the 'Top 99 Of '85-'95' - "...LOCUST ABORTION TECHNICIAN....represents the Buttholes at their most deliberately focused, confrontational, and downright evil..."

Magnet

"[A] blend of swamp groove, free-jazz absurdism and hardcore sludge. There really was nothing like the Butthole Surfers' acid-soaked freeform workouts during their golden era..."

Mojo (Publisher) - 3/03, p.76

Ranked #48 in Mojo's "Top 50 Punk Albums".

Mojo (Publisher) - 3/01, p.115

"...This is a genius-flecked bad trip through a senseless world....The best recorded representation of their oeuvre, teetering between celebration of and revulsion at the sickness endemic in American society..."

Mojo (Publisher) - p.52

Ranked #5 in Mojo's "The 50 Most Out There Albums Of All Time" - "[O]ne of the most unsettling records of all time."
