I’ve said it before on this site, it’s not a very popular view but I don’t give a rat’s ass, I fucking love Primus.
It’s probably not a very popular view because of two simple reasons: 1) No one knows who they are and b) if they do, they can’t handle how intensely batshit crazy their music is.
Take the best bass guitarist you’ve ever heard in your life and feed him a bucketload of mind-bending drugs and you’ve got Les Claypool, the driving force behind this band and the man slapping the shit out of the bass guitar in the track I’m about to play you.
Though the video for “Lee Van Cleef†just dropped, the new album, Green Naugahyde has been out since September last year.
Check it:
Zombies and the Old West, fuck yeah.
Here’s more, this one’s called “Tragedy’s A’ Comin’â€, also off the new album. It has sick dancing, tight jams and the fucking coolest lobster suit I’ve ever seen.
Catchy. I dig how tragedy comes riding in on a horse wearing a spacesuit.
That’s some pretty deep sheeit right there if you stop and think about it.
Are you stopping and thinking about it? Neither am I.
All I’m thinking is DAMN I want that lobster suit.
