The Deeper You Dig..., the second album from Australian rap rock crew Butterfingers, came out on 20 June 2006 on Valley Trash Records, the band's own independent label, and it showed a homegrown outfit could sell without a major label holding the purse strings. It climbed to number 14 on the national albums chart and number 2 on the ARIA urban list.
The songs are cheeky, bouncing and built on loose-limbed grooves. "Figjam", which lifts a sample from The Herd's "77%", earned an ARIA nomination for Best Urban Release, and triple j listeners latched on to "Get Up Outta the Dirt" and "I Like Em When They're Trouble" as well. Elsewhere "Variety" borrows from Bias B's "Ladies Man". It followed their debut, Breakfast at Fatboys.
