Shockabilly released four studio albums between 1982 and 1985, displaying an experimental approach to music that encompassed influence from numerous genres.
[2] Shockabilly was actually an avant-rock band,[3] although the band's experimental approach to music saw their works encompassing many genres, including blues,[2] country,[4] folk,[4] folk-rock,[5] lo-fi,[4] noise rock,[2] psychedelic,[4] rockabilly,[2][6] rock and roll[3][6] and surf,[2] all of which would be explored in avant-garde arrangements, as the band performed covers of songs by other artists that were nearly unrecognizable from the original compositions.
[2][6] The band's music has been seen as a possible influence on the later works of future experimental rock bands such as Sonic Youth, and Primus, where the vocals of Les Claypool have been compared to the vocal style used by Eugene Chadbourne in Shockabilly.
