I had a similar experience with the Butthole Surfers around the time that 'Locust Abortion Technician' was released. I had heard of them before, and I had heard a few of their songs, but I didn't pay much attention to them until a friend of mine started raving about them when that album came out. I ended up buying a copy of that album and then the 'Hairway to Steven' album when it was released and I even went to see them play live a couple of times. My fascination with them didn't last much beyond that and I couldn't care less about them now but I still have those albums in my collection even though I haven't listened to either of them since the early 90's and may never bother to listen to either of them ever again.
