Twelve Point Buck

Twelve Point Buck is the fourth album by Killdozer, released in 1989 through Touch and Go Records.

Twelve Point Buck was reissued in 2013.

Reception and impact
The Washington Post wrote that the "thump-and-grind is art music" and that "there's an integrity to its unrelentingly harsh rumble." The Wisconsin State Journal deemed the album "industrial dirge music at its best."

After hearing the album, Sub Pop's Jonathan Poneman suggested that Nirvana record demos with Killdozer producer Butch Vig; after signing with DGC Records, Kurt Cobain asked Vig to produce Nevermind. Cobain told Vig that he wanted Nevermind to sound "as heavy" as Twelve Point Buck.
