Untitled[edit]

I don't think this page is too good we should split it into two separate articles and turn butterfingers into a disambiguation page.

Good idea. I hadn't noticed the Malaysian group had been added to the top of this article. I'll split it now. -- Chuq 08:47, 14 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent Chart Positions[edit]

The History sections says album "Breakfast at Fatboys... debuted at No. 15 on the ARIA Album charts". Then the discography table says that album peaked at #61 on the ARIA Charts. Can anyone confirm? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zkhott (talk • contribs) 01:38, 27 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The album reached #61 on the ARIA album charts,^[1] #15 on the ARIA Australian Release charts^[2] and #2 on the AIR (Australian Independent Record Labels Association) Charts ^[2] where it remained in the top twenty of the AIR charts for over a year following its release.^[3].

Out dated main page and messy talk page[edit]

Some one add the details of their latest tour (just finished) where they were supported by TZU and MC Lars. I'll add the specifics later when I have time if no one beats me to it. Also generally this page is out of date. Also while FIGJAM sounds awesome live, think of the arena packed and the 600-1000 people there all doing the "Blam Blam" at the same time, I highly doubt we need a full set of the lyrics listed on this talk page...If you really are such a newb that you can't find it here is a clue: for any lyrics you need add the word 'lyrics' before the song name in google - for example: lyrics figjam - and you will get the result you are looking for almost 100% of the time. -- eps 0347 (UTC) 21 July 2006

Lyrics[edit]

Does anyone have the lyrics, I'm in need of them. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 60.226.16.7 (talk • contribs) 18:56, 30 August 2005.

Yeah me too, the uncut version.--Sultn 08:57, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Lyrics of what song? -- Chuq 12:26, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well I want figjam lyrics, but I can't find it anywere on the web.--Sultn 07:16, 31 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A malaysian band of the same name[edit]

Just for everyone's information, there is a grunge band in Malaysia called Butterfingers as well. They've been in the Malaysian underground scene since the mid 90's. Now they're quite a big name in the Malaysian mainstream music industry as well. They used to play in english but now they have songs in both english and bahasa melayu (the Malaysian National Language). The typo of songs they play have grown from the garage jamming sounds to 'Nirvana"-ish to their own, a must listen-to for all grungr/indie/rock fans from all over. Music is an international language, trancending nationalities and language. Btterfinger's "vio-pipe" is one song that can really reach crowds of all walks when it comes to appreciatic good music.

However I can hardly find any useful link to them on the world wide web. If there is can it be put up for all to see? Thanks. -Ash-

You must have missed the first line of the article: it reads For other uses, see Butterfingers (disambiguation).. You can find a link to the Malaysian band there. -- Chuq 01:06, 5 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

New album released at a show 25th Nov 2023[edit]

So I went to a Butterfingers show on the above stated date and they gave everyone who attended a CD with lyrics included in the front page, I found a few links so just putting these here for someone more capable to sort out the proper process because there is nothing actually announcing the album.
