Basically, to anyone unaware of their legacy, Bu****le Surfers—along with bands like Scratch Acid, Big Black, and Flipper—fused noise with punk in a way that would become the main catalyst of inspiration for grunge.

But, in ways unlike anybody else at the time, or since, their legend is equally defined by the fact that they were purposefully and aggravatingly the weirdest motherf*ckers on earth.

Surfers revelled in mayhem, purred in mischief, and drank themselves to hell, often to the point of being unable to function or perform. However, rather antithetically to their drink and drug-crazed reputation, before the world of the Bu****le Surfers existed, Haynes was on a fast-track route to being a successful accountant, and guitarist Paul Leary was inches away from a masters degree in business administration.

As a band they were lurid, surreal and outlandish, genuinely terrifying to some, but it was not without due thought. It takes a degree of intellect to behave that stupidly.

Their first three albums Psychic… Powerless… Another Man’s Sac, Rembrandt Pussyhorse and Locust Abortion Technician are all juggernaut releases. From tongue-in-cheek nods to Black Sabbath to the pulled-to-bits cover of “American Woman,” these are tracks that switch in tempo from slow creeping terrors to wild sweat-inducing abandon, and nightmarish narratives woven with puerile and obtuse wordplay.

They were a band singular in character, but impossible to define sonically. Operating as some sort of mutant punk rock, psychedelic, esoteric noise, post-punk hybrid outfit, they wriggled around like snakes smothered in l**e when it came to letting a genre stick to them.

Perhaps this is the reason why, 35 years on from their formation, they still sound like no-one else.

On this date in 1964, at the 36th Academy Awards, "An Occurence at Owl Creek Bridge" was awarded the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Subject.
Based on the 1890 American short story of the same name by American Civil War soldier/writer Ambrose Bierce, aside from the shouts of the soldiers and the song that plays as the prisoner floats to safety, there is no dialogue.
Shot in 1961, it made its 1963 UK release as second feature to "The Birds" (1963).
On February 28, 1964, approximately three years after its production, the film was shown on American television as an episode of the fifth season of the fantasy/science fiction show "The Twilight Zone." Producer William Froug had seen the film and decided to buy the American broadcast rights. Some scenes were shortened to fit constraints on running time, and the audio track was completely replaced.
The transaction cost "The Twilight Zone" $25,000 ($20,000 to air the film plus $5,000 additional costs for re-editing), significantly less than the average of $65,000 they expended on producing their own episodes; however, Froug's purchase allowed for the film to be aired only twice. According to Marc Scott Zicree, author ot "The Twilight Zone Companion,""An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" was the last episode of the classic Twilight Zone to be "produced" (presumably referencing the re-editing and the addition of footage of Rod Serling, as production of the series was cancelled afterwards). It was not, however, the last episode of the series to be broadcast. (Wikipedia/IMDb)
