Breakfast at Fatboys, the debut from Australian rap-rock crew Butterfingers, came out on 3 May 2004 on the band's own Valley Trash label, with MGM handling distribution, and it's a scrappy, cheeky piece of work from a group that didn't wait for anybody's permission. Evil Eddie, a member from the very start, is at the heart of a sound that bolts hip-hop rhymes to loud guitars, with a goofball streak you can clock from titles like "Yo Mama" and "I Love Work".
Triple J made it Album of the Week on release and put "Yo Mama" on high rotation. It stalled at No. 61 on the ARIA albums chart but did far better among the independents, reaching No. 2 on the AIR chart and hanging around its top twenty for more than a year, and it earned an ARIA nomination for Best Independent Release.
