Les Claypool is a legend. Check out "My Name is Mud" or "Jerry was a Race Car Driver". Their live performances are epic.

"shake hands with beef" was a phrase Les Claypool's mostly vegetarian friend used to describe his occasional meat consumption.

Best bassist in my opinion, if he wasn’t such a weirdo Primus would so much bigger then they are and thank God they weren’t like everyone else. Some of the wildest shows I’ve ever been too. Their last one that I got to go to was a Willy wonka themed and it was crazy

@@JasonVeisberg I’d argue Les being normal would’ve actually made them less big than they ended up being, because they wouldn’t have had any of their charm or uniqueness

Primus is a quirky trio w/ the bass being the lead instrument in the music, courtesy of bassist/ vocalist Les Claypool (who composed and performed the 'South Park' theme) ... Claypool had formed Primus in the mid-80's in California and recorded an oddball demo tape titled 'Sausage'... However, Primus was as weird a band as they could be... and they didn't fit in the scene at the time, between the 80's 'hair' bands and the thrash metal bands... When Primus played the clubs, patrons would become irate and start chanting, "Primus sucks!" That became the band's calling card... 😂 By 1989, Primus was comprised of Claypool, guitarist Larry LaLonde and drummer Tim 'Herb' Alexander... and no record label would sign them... The band decided to record a live set of their songs and released the tapes independently as their debut album - 'Suck on this'. An indie label opted to fund a Primus studio album and the band released 'Frizzle Fry' in 1990 before they signed to Interscope Records in 1991... Their next album 'Sailing the seas of cheese' in 1991 got an unexpected boost from MTV and the growing 'alternative rock' scene... Primus had their videos for Tommy the cat'... and 'Jerry was a race car driver' on cable TV and the record would sell gold in the US. Primus scored a bigger record in 1993 - 'Pork soda'... MTV again promoted their videos for - 'My name is Mud' ... 'DMV' ... 'Mr. Krinkle'... Their 1995 album 'Tales from the punch bowl'... yielded their biggest MTV single - "Winona's big brown beaver". Unfortunately, a weary Tim Alexander left the band in 1996... he was replaced by drummer Brian 'Brain' Mantia. 2 subsequent Primus albums failed to generate record sales... 'The Brown album' (1997) had the singles - 'Shake hands with beef'... 'Over the falls'... 'Anti Pop' (1999) had the single 'Lacquer head'... Drummer Brain left Primus in 2000 and the band went on hiatus. In 2003, Primus reunited w/ drummer Tim Alexander to tour again (Les Claypool kept busy with other projects like Oysterhead, Frog Brigade, Bucket of Bernie Brains, etc.) until 2006. Primus finally released a new album 'Green naugahyde' in 2011 w/ Jay Lane on drums (who was the original Primus drummer)... and were on tour until 2013. In 2014, Primus announced the album 'Primus & the Chocolate factory'... as a tribute to the 'Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' movie (Tim Alexander was on drums again) and followed up w/ a new album 'The desaturating seven' in 2017. Primus has been actively touring in 2024.

Too many people suggesting My Name is Mud. While a very well known song, it's technically one of Primus worst songs. What I mean by that, it's literally not very technical or complicated. This song also does very little to showcase their actual talent. Basically every album is good. Their older stuff would probably be better to start off on. Seas of Cheese, Frizzle Fry, Tales from the Punchbowl, Porksoda, Antipop. This song is from the Brown Album, which has a lot of bangers on it, but it's also not their much more talented OG drummer. These three don't take themselves too seriously, but they are three of the most talented and creative musicians on the planet. They've been around since the 80's and have a huge back catalog that is worth listening to. As others have suggested, check out Tommy the Cat. Both the Seas of Cheese version and the Rhinoplasty version. Also, from a lesser known album called Highball with the Devil, listen to The Awakening. He didn't write it, but it's a joy to listen to him play. It really showcases his talent.
