Cat Butt
Cat Butt was a Seattle, Washington rock group, formed in 1987. Initially, the band did a short West Coast tour, and then went on to record their first full-length album, Journey to the Center Of, which was produced by Jack Endino of Skin Yard. To promote the album, the band did a large U.S. tour, before disbanding in late 1990. Although not as successful as other Sub Pop bands, they maintained a loyal cult following in the Pacific Northwest. The band is referenced in the first verse of the Guided by Voices song "Pendulum", from their 1990 album Same Place the Fly Got Smashed: "Come on over tonight; we'll put on some Cat Butt and do it up right."
