There was an early '90s review of the self-titled Kim Salmon and The Surrealists album that had an all-affirming tagline along the lines of: "Ugly music for ugly people." That album's Brad Pitt compared to this.

The Tex Perkins-led Butcher Shop had two lives. Some would say both were mercifully short.

The first (1988) was as a studio-only combo that included moonlighting Johnnys, Spencer P. Jones and Billy Pommer Jr, and ex-Gun Club and Cramps member Kid "Congo" Powers that produced the "Hard For You" three-track EP. The second (1989) involved gigs and a rejigged line-up (with Lubricated Goats Peter Hartley and Stu Spasm) and spawned the "Pump Action" LP.

Both line-ups were on the Black Eye label, whose roster, reputationally speaking, was characterised by consumption of various substances, nudity, anarchic tendencies and/or all of the above. The Butcher Shop had something in common with the rest of the roster in that they wallowed in their own musical filth and threw it back at audiences. Perhaps less confronting than GG Allin - I'm only going by second-hand reports on both counts - but you get the picture, and that attitude is admirably captured on record.

The 15 songs here are mostly crackers and they're not all direct as you might assume. There's enough raw ooze in the opener, "Pump Action", to fill a dozen Malabar sewage outfalls, and you can feel the musical crunch of "The Length" as it's used as a billyclub on the back of your skull.
