    One of my favorite bands in high school... My dad works for the newspaper and he got their cd in a press package... it got sent my way... I got really into them... I got my friends into them... then she died... thats rock...

      Hey...I know this comment is MAD OLD...(12 years haha!)...but I saw that yer dad receives press packages for the newspaper he works at...
      this comment obviously stood out to me immediately... curiosity’s got me wondering what paper he works for and how and why was a Butt Trumpet (sorry...I guess likely Betty Blowtorch by this point) CD thrown his and the newspaper’s way? The only reason I ask is because the band is/was pretty dark and underground (at least they were circa 1993ish or 94ish they opened for FEAR @ The Limelight NYC). They broke up onstage that very night in front of us...
      Just thinking about how obscure they pretty much are/were...does your father work for a smaller or less mainstream paper? Not tryna be too intrusive just insanely curious about this event...I know it’s gone sound clićhe AF but I’ve got punx rock coursing through my veins so I basically live off of discussing this type of shit...haha! Get back to me if ya find a moment. Cheers 🍻

      Oh then through my dumb curiosity and excitement I just now saw “and then she died...” so now I know it’s Bianca Butthole and you’re referring to Betty Blowtorch... both great bands...

    I first heard this song back in 95.. Heard it on WTOS out of Maine. When they aired it they stated it was the Butt Trumpets. In fact I downloaded the MP3 and it was the Butt Trumpets.
