The funk-metal was an hibrid funk+metal(hip hop,rock and soul mixed too).These bands(RHCP,Infectios Groove,DRI,Suicidal Tendencies,Primus,Faith No More)were a great influence for the posterior nu-metal genre.!!!! Without them,there wouldn't have existed nu-metal.

It makes me laugh in a way, because James Hetfield said Les Claypool was "too funky" for Metallica, but I'm pretty sure Trujillo didn't perform this way in Ozzy's band either.

Funny I was playing this album with some younger rockers and they thought it was new I just laughed and said nooo this came way before you were born.

[@looshkin66]

steven perkins drum beat in the first minute of the song is so simple yet so fucking amazing. dude can swing.

[@Oqualquer]

Infectious Groove is like Primus, the bass is very audible and loud with the bassist player Bein very high skill (both Les Claypool and Rober truijro are very skilled bass players), but the difference is the song style, and even though both bands are from different genres, they are the same in the lyrics and humor of the songs: very goofy and silly while being really serious at the same time (with Infectious bein more to the silly part than the serious part). Also Infectious Grooves kick ass alot, probably the most badass funk Metal band ever!

[@Aardcore]

my step dad introduced me to this band back when I was 16 years old. That was 23 years ago, and these dudes NEVER got me tired of listening to them. Greatest band in the world and criminally underrated. It amazes me how many people have no idea what Trujillo was up to years before joining Metallica. So badass to see him in his natural element.

People just now realizing this guy can actually play bass always crack me up. Most professional bassists are incredible musicians with an insane amount of discipline and humility because they are willing to not be front and center with some wild guitar solos that they could definitely play but they lay back and do the fundamentals because they know they can do it well. That's the case most of the time believe it or not.
