'Helter Stupid' is Negativland's second album on SST Records, released in 1989, It was Negativland's third concept album.
The first half of the album is composed of the tracks "Prologue" and "Helter Stupid", The two together form an extended piece lasting over 22 minutes, The concept, and some of the sampled material, came from a San Francisco television news program that was taken in by a media hoax perpetrated by Negativland while promoting its previous album, 'Escape from Noise', Other samples used included those from Rev, Estus Pirkle (further samples from the same sermon used in the band's signature song, "Christianity Is Stupid"), an interview with Charles Manson, and what was the band's most brazenly unauthorized sample to date: "Helter Skelter" by The Beatles.
