i've only really listed to the 'commercial' albums.

'electric larryland' isn't that bad, everyone has heard 'pepper'

i don't mind the sun sometimes
the images it shows
i can taste you my lips
and smell you in my clothes.

there's also a 'cover' if you will of ministry's 'jesus built my hotrod' with actual lyrics as opposed to the ding dong dang dang-a-long-a-ding-dong that gibby haynes sang on the original.

'independent worm saloon' also has its moments. i really like 'edgar' and 'the wooden song'

i've heard random cuts from their older stuff and have a copy of 'hairway to steven' on my hard drive. it's also great, and while i can see that the band did become a little more 'commercial' with the releases i mention above at least they still sounded like the butthole surfers... the last 'new' album i heard was 'weird revolution' and quite frankly it sucked, it sounded like a slightly more intelligent version of the bloodhound gang.
