Helmet had two indie releases Strap it On and the collected singles Born Annoying before unleashing a post-Nirvana hard rock slab for Interscope called Meantime. It was metal for uptight jazz fans. The 1994 follow-up Betty was not as critically well-received... but I think letting a little air in was good for Page and the boys.
Tonight's track, I Know, contains two excellent and underused euphemisms for masturbation: Shine the Baptist and De-bark the Log. Listen for 'em.
