Teresa Taylor was half of the double-drum sound that helped define the early Butthole Surfers sound. The band is pictured here in a 1984 promo shot.
Teresa Taylor, one half of the double-drum kit attack that defined the early Butthole Surfers, has died at age 60.on its Twitter account, noting that Taylor died over the weekend"after a long battle with lung disease."Originally from North Texas, Taylor joined the Surfers to drum alongside King Coffee, whom she'd played with in high school marching bands. The pair's propulsive tribal drumming was a pillar of the band's frenzied, hard-to-categorize sound.
The Butthole Surfers went on to mainstream success following Taylor's departure, including the chart-topping hit"Pepper." However, its output after dropping to a single drummer tended to sound more like conventional rock music than the odd amalgam of psychedelia and post-punk noise that marked its early work.
Beyond her time in the Surfers, Taylor made a memorable appearance in director Richard Linklater's first film,and appeared on the poster for the 1991 film. During her brief appearance, Taylor plays a woman trying to sell what she claims is Madonna's pap smear.
