• Just found out that Scott Mathews, original drummer and one of the founding members of Butthole Surfers, lost his battle with cancer recently. Condolences to his friends and family. I, unfortunately, never got to speak with Scott directly fer the site, but have met  lots of folks who knew and loved him. Many old fans consider the early days of the band the best, and Scott, no doubt, had a big part in formulating the Butthole Surfers from its early punk rock roots into its later psych-garage sound and .many of the songs that he originally played with them would be released long after his tenure in the band.
• Much thanks fer the timeless music, RIP Scott.
