Now considered a cult classic, Betty was originally released on June 21,
1994, on Interscope Records. Helmet and T-Ray produced all the songs
except “Milquetoast,” which was produced by Butch Vig. Rolling Stone
would go on to hail it as “one of Helmet’s most beloved albums, as well
as a landmark of mid-Nineties metal” and note that “…tracks like
‘Wilma’s Rainbow,’ ‘I Know’ and ‘Milquetoast’ [which had appeared
earlier that year, as ‘Milktoast,’ on the soundtrack to the Brandon Lee
film The Crow] continue the band’s riff-as-power-tool aesthetic, while
also expanding on it…exploring jazz (‘Beautiful Love’), blues (‘Sam
Hell’) and oddball funk (‘The Silver Hawaiian’).”
