what the fuck was his problem?
>>217822837Just didn't like them city slickers
some fat fuck stepped on his shoes and said his name was mud
>>217822837he's a damned blue collar tweaker
MY NAME IS MUDAND I CHECK THESE DUBS
>bassline noodling>shitty half rapped nonsensical lyrics>more bassline noodlingevery primus song ever
>>217823064And yet eternally better than whatever trash you listen to lmao
>>217822837He sucks
>>217822837>half of Primus songs are just making fun of rednecks>Les is a redneckI don't get it...
>>217823150It's like rappers used to make fun of nigger behavior back in the day.
>>217823120Yes Primus Sucks!
uhuhuhuhuh. spit is cool.
Primus is unironically a terrible band and Les wasted his talent with them. He would be better off playing bass in another band.
I've been on a primus binge lately. I'm gonna see whatever is left of them with puscifer when they tour in may.
>>217823355legend is that he auditioned for metallica and got rejected.
>>217822837Fookin prawns
>>217823355metallica rejecting him despite his talent is proof that he was too much of a fucking weirdo to do anything but lead
>>217823374I saw them last summer, out door venue but they sounded pretty good. Had been on my list to see before they got to old. He can still play well, all the lyrics were even more incoherent than I thought possible
>>217823390>>217823394part of being in a band is looking the part and Les isn't a metal guy so they were right in not hiring him.
>>217822837Primus sucks
>>217823462primus is a metal band
>>217823013I thought that was the cotton eyed joe guy not the big brown beaver dude
>>217823462>part of being in a band is looking the partGrateful Dead gave up on looking like anything other than lazy old men after fifteen years
>>217823489at best they are alternative metal, but still too different from traditional metal bands to fit in.
>>217823064I loved Primus back in the '90s, but I grew tired of their schtick pretty fast.I still think they're cool, but I haven't actively listened to their music in like 25 years.
>>217823462But lars is a midge and metal is full of nerds.
>>217822837Bass players, no matter who talented, suck as frontmen.
>>217823150It's only religious people who are unable to make fun of themselves in the context of their religiousness.
>>217823609ok but Les is le quircky chungus reddit personified so he's way off the mark.
>>217823624rush, slayer, the police?
>>217822837His name is chud
>>217823624agreed. A singer holding a bass just looks weird to me since it's so over-sized.
>>217823642Les is more like, 90s nickelodeon personified. but that's a reddit thing to say so maybe you're onto something
>>217822837The musician in Primus is amazing but it’s wasted on goofy retard music and Les doing that stupid cartoony voice
>>217822837he's the most boringest sonsabitch you've ever seen
>>217823661Hes a pedo?!?
>>217823711>musician in Primus*musicianship
>>217822837TOO MANY PUPPIES
>>217823711if they didn't suck nobody would know who they are
>>217823760> if they didn't> nobody wouldDouble negative, Jesus christ. Learn how grammar works, retarded mushbrainEven ESLs type out English better than that
>>217823711like Devo they're better suited to making theme songs for cartoons
>>217823711If only Les had a million side projects and solo albums...Besides he's a mad scientist of the bass, the weird shit is just window dressing. He makes the kind of music other musicians listen to.
>>217823785how ironic and embarrassing for you if you have any self-awareness and aren't an ESL yourself
>>217823785>he proofreads his posts>quality of posts are extremely important
>>217822837> /tv/ only mentions "My name is Mud" and "Wynona's big brown beaver"They have a lot of great stuff out of those two songs.
for me it's brown album
>>217823898I THINK BEFORE MY DAYS ARE DONEI WANT TO BE A FISHER MONE
>>217823785>Double negativeYou don't know what that means, do you?
>>217823898>tfw you're 9 and watching one of the only airings of mister krinkle on mtv
>>217823924THOSE DAMN BLUE. OLLARRD TWEAKEDS, THEYRE BELOVED IN THIS TOWNHEY-UHHEY-UH
Primus has like five 11/10 songs then the rest of their music is unironic garbage. Is that the true PRIMUS SUCKS pill?
>>217823969One of my face songs by them.
>>217823995You fucking lying peice of shit.
>>217823390>legend is that he auditioned for metallica and got rejected.Are we pretending that Metallica was ever known for legendary bass riffs post-Cliff(and that's one song, and Les is by far a better bass player than Cliff)His talents would have been wasted on Metallica because he would have designated to keeping the groove and getting to do bass solos live once and awhile.
>>217824018These are their only good songs
>>217823995Name them.
>>217822837VERY NICENOW LETS SEE FAITH NO MORES VIDEO
SAY BABY, DO YA WANNA LAY DOWN WITH ME, SAY BABY DO YA WANNA LAY DOWN BY MY SIDE, SAY BABY, SAY BABY
>>217823995the primus sucks pill is you accept that they suck but listen to them anyway because you also suck and you enjoy being a stupid shithead while singing along to their shitty music
>>217823064I finally listened to them for the first time months agoIts amazing bassline though but it gets old fastI also never knew Les Claypool was the guy at the start of South Park lmaomade the song too
>>217824041simultaneously contrarian and casual, impressive.
https://youtu.be/tawvZiPZAtU?si=tVLwBiQIXjarECh8https://youtu.be/mTUb18VYLjc?si=vkgTMQYiXhIwGIip
Les and Deaner fishing was the most kino thing fucking ever. You got fucking Les Claypool, Dean Ween, fishing together. Stoned, having beers, shooting the shit, chilling on the water, fishing..absolute kino
>>217823898Its no one's fault they made one of the greatest music videos ever.
For me it's Spegetti Western
>>217823462>looking the partthe mexican they hired looks like a chicano gang member background character from a cypress hill music video
>>217824302rip to the minds of every zonked out kid having the rotten luck of having HEEEEEE seared into their brain
>>217823929anon missed a comma that sick fuck!
>>217824353>falling asleep on the couch after having watched a primus and tool video in the same night high on junk food Babyfigs will never know how formative 120 minutes was back when MTV had a shred of credibility.
>>217823898The first song of theirs I ever heard and got me hooked was Jerry Was A Race Car Driver, but for me it's Tommy The Cat.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4OhIU-PmB8
>>217823629>never heard of Babylon Beecalm down there tips
fun fact, the real reason generative AI exists is to post primus lyrics into the prompt and seeing what happens
>>217823064Pretty much>>217823084Maybe if he listens to Backstreet Boys
>>217824653Babylon Bee doesn't make fun of judaism..
>>217824680They make fun of gaylords like John Hagee who peddle dispensationalist heresy that steals people's money to rebuild the temple and funnel other dollars to Israel.
>>217823596>I haven't actively listened to their music in like 25 years.My youtube algorithm throws a primus song in, usually at the most inappropriate time. Though I rate Oysterhead pretty highly, and I'll listen to album a couple times a year. https://youtu.be/sQoJji2TwYc?si=_P9UM7tBUgai0_BQ
>>217822837I love Primus. They suck. Somebody once told me that Primus is Tool for hillbillies, and as a native of southern WV who's entire friend group (ladies excluded), loved Primus I had to agree. Blue Collar Tweakers and My name is Mud speak to my soul. I live in Pennsylvania nowadays and I am a musician who's been in a few bands. I will say that West Virginia/Kentucky has a much higher percentage of bass players than PA or NYC, most likely because of Primus.
>>217823898USED TO BE A PIMP BUT NOW IM HOINFODAMAN
>>217823462They said he was too good to be in Metallica.
Based Primus albums: Frizzle FrySailing the Seas of CheesePork SodaThe Brown Album Green NoghydeCringe Primus Albums: The rest
>>217824849Tales from the Punchbowl is clearly better than Brown Album.Brown Album and Antipop are just decent.Green Naugahyde is mediocre, the last two are terrible
>>217824820>Primus is Tool for hillbilliesPlenty of crossover. They were both Lolapalooza staples through the 90's. They toured together a few years ago. And technically they were both in green jelly at the same time (as much as anyone was in green jelly... babyfigs don't even know the weird shit we used to listen to).
Thanks /tv/ I'm now watching black people react to primus videos on youtube
>>217825143>YOOOO! Dis shit is WYLD
