Sailing the Seas of Primus: A Quick Look
Life before discovering Primus can be a bit dull and grey. Have no fear, there are many hours of Primus listening pleasure to turn that right around. The experimental rock/funk metal band has been around since 1984 and creating some of the coolest sounding music you'll ever hear.
Band members: Larry "Ler" LaLonde, Les Claypool, Tim "Herb" Alexander
Primus can be described as fat bass riffs, eccentric guitar interludes, Tool-esque drumming styles, all while having a slight country rock vein to their sound. This song exemplifies that pretty well. Check it out!

Perhaps one of the most iconic aspects of Primus is singer Les Claypool's dramatic, and at times, silly vocals and lyrics. His unique character also shows through his insane bass techniques, and his overall weirdness in live performances and music videos. Check out this popular video:
