More Info:

Now considered a cult classic, Betty was originally released on June 21, 1994, on Interscope Records. Helmet and T-Ray produced all the songs except “Milquetoast,” which was produced by Butch Vig. Rolling Stone would go on to hail it as “one of Helmet’s most beloved albums, as well as a landmark of mid-Nineties metal” and note that “…tracks like ‘Wilma’s Rainbow,’ ‘I Know’ and ‘Milquetoast’ [which had appeared earlier that year, as ‘Milktoast,’ on the soundtrack to the Brandon Lee film The Crow] continue the band’s riff-as-power-tool aesthetic, while also expanding on it…exploring jazz (‘Beautiful Love’), blues (‘Sam Hell’) and oddball funk (‘The Silver Hawaiian’).”

Tracklist
Wilma's Rainbow, I Know, Biscuits for Smut, Milquetoast, Tic, Rollo, Street Crab, Clean, Vaccination, Beautiful Love, Speechless, The Silver Hawaiian, Overrated, Sam Hell
Bonus disc: Flushings, Thick, Pariah, Biscuits for Smut (Mutt Mix), Biscuits for Smut (Pooch Mix)
