In 1996, Capitol released Butthole Surfers' "Electriclarryland", which climbed to number 31 on the "Billboard" 200; the single "Pepper" topped the "Billboard" Modern Rock Tracks chart. Their songs started appearing on the soundtracks of major Hollywood movies, including Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet" and John Carpenter's "Escape from L.A." Despite improved sales with their second Capitol album, the group's relationship with the label was increasingly troubled. A planned 1998 project, "After the Astronaut", was scrapped and Butthole Surfers acrimoniously split with their manager, Tom Bunch. In 1999, Butthole Surfers won their lawsuit against Touch and Go. Despite the outcome, several of Butthole Surfers' peers in the alternative music community, including Fugazi and Minor Threat lead singer Ian MacKaye, criticized them for having pursued the lawsuit. Haynes and others said they wouldn't have initiated the proceedings if they felt Rusk's dealings had been honorable. Rusk provided the band with indecipherable accounting statements. Rusk continued to insist his actions were honest even though the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit found otherwise. With the case resolved, the band reissued "Psychic... Powerless... Another Man's Sac", "Rembrandt Pussyhorse" (with the "Cream Corn..." EP), "Locust Abortion Technician", and "Hairway to Steven" on their Latino Buggerveil label.
