Primitive Enema is the debut album by the Los Angeles punk band Butt Trumpet.[1][2] It was produced by Geza X and released in 1994 by Chrysalis Records, with the recording sessions allegedly costing less than a thousand dollars.[3][4] The album was the subject of a censorship campaign in Leominster, Massachusetts, after a mother campaigned against the sale of Parental Advisory-stickered records to minors.[5] The band supported the album by touring with Fear.[6] The album had sold more than 60,000 copies by the end of 2000.[7]
