[@DamienTheCat]

Primus please make a White Goblin continuation. I've never been so enamored with a piece of music in my life. I didn't think it was possible. And to think it's based on a children's picture book. Each and every listen leaves me speechless.

[@28black81]

If Goblin rock really is a genre...this is the poster child!!

[@beebopbaloobop]

Necrogoblicon would like a word with you.

[@oh_poor_damaged_mepatrick1529]

As would some Finnish and scandanavian black and death metal bands...

[@camgood2437]

Amazing stuff. Quite the saga for these little goblins..

[@keithdyah]

Shits amazing!

[@bryanthull4870]

This was my favorite song off the new album to see live. Thank you for coming to our small venue in avila beach, we all hope you're here again!

[@popurri5326]

So fucking happy the primus fanbase is alive and well to this day

[@Metalbeard13]

Alex Pena Since Lollapolooza '92. They sucked then, they suck now. Can't wait to see them next month.

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

This album is going to be a fucking trip!

[@seetomulyadi6893]

TheRubberStudiosASMR HELL YEAHH

[@dariencarpentier2325]

Trip... Indeed...

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

Mine too. Tied with wish you were here. Shame they took the chimneys down from the actual building. Not the same

[@numberneinlarge9965]

TheRubberStudiosASMR Sorry to tell you this, but I already have he album. Two days early.

[@miha795]

ITS GOING TO BE A FUCKING *TREK*

[@kellimichelle5132]

Primus never disappoints. Long time fan...teen in the 90's dreaming with your songs in the background. That... bass....mmmm....damn... The creativity....this has become the Psilocybin story time! Thanks guys, I've seen you jam a number of time, looking forward to sharing your mind...till we meet again...cheers. verytime...

[@zak1998]

Primus tickles me in a way no other sound can.

[@asteriskcolon]

Cheers to the first Primus concept album I'm not disappointed so far... hoped but didn't dare assume they'd do more great, original stuff after Naguahyde.

[@benp.320]

Primus and the chocolate factory is a concept album.

[@asteriskcolon]

@@benp.320 I guess that's true, but it's not particularly original, I wouldn't call it an original concept album, more of a cover album that doubles as a concept album.

[@maximeweve1017]

Am I the only one seeing a phallic-shaped rock on the background ? What a blowing song though

[@rugbyguitargod]

Maxime Weve ‘blowing’... I see what you did there lol

[@victoonix2802]

thanks, you ruined the video

[@Justanothercrow123]

This is the best they've ever sounded to me. Larry is channeling​ Steve Howe throughout and the progression is so satisfying. I absolutely love this.

[@coloradotrophyfishing]

You stole the words from my mouth...saw them live in Denver this year...best Primus show I've ever seen sounds weird but feels right...I've probably seen them at least 15 times in the last 20 years. Chocolate factory tour was awesome...but the material on this album is next level Primus and it feels so good🤘

[@bassimprovjams3772]

Hell yea!!!

[@israelm4156]

It’s so well put together and concise. They were always like that but seeing them mature has been nothing but impressive.

[@Tommybouy666]

Primus in their... prime, shall I say.

[@bazzjedimaster]

Man I completely forgot I read this book as a kid, all the memories are coming back.

[@SchizoidBastard]

Larry outdid himself

[@patitopototo2877]

Why isn't this the top comment?

[@skateordielaughing8753]

Agreed, I noticed that too

[@GerM_tbo]

And that is a difficult thing indeed. And yet he managed. The absolute bastard.

[@MattieCooper10000]

Word up!

[@blazerivers3000]

what instrument does he play?

[@dam3zworld]

I feel Primus could make an album about anything. I want a Primus album next all about Robin Williams films.

[@sixwheelcarlisle8491]

Love this series. You should make a movie about this! 🥳😁🤓

[@jaydogg505]

Soooooo funky and proggy, man I love it. It took a little bit and I had to clear my head of all the other Primus works but after I did and closed my eyes it was AWESOME!!!

[@ashthegreat1]

Dont forget to wish Les happy birthday on the 29th

[@Siarawaszympanemjest]

There is so much fun oozing from those songs. Les and Co. sound inspired and happy.

[@ericpiazzi3444]

this is becoming one of my favorite prog albums of all time

[@dont.ripfuller6587]

Just hooked up and dialed in my preamp, didnt know this existed, it fell in my lap. Wow man. like whoa baby alright... 👍🏼 Yesh yesh y'all... 🤩🤠

[@WreckinCrew94]

Holy fuck that bass, I just came buckets

[@ColoRADbro420]

bucketheads

[@frowningham723]

I wanna see a full on primus rainbow goblins dark ride at a theme park.

[@basicallyjustween9322]

Those bass licks!! Les has so much room to roam with Herb!!!

[@melisnAk]

Sic, never seen this. Primus was one of my favorite bands. Havnt thought of them in 15-20 years. Glad I did down the rabbit hole I go 🐰💚 🌈

[@TiempoNegro]

This is the best i've heard from this album so far!

[@notabubba8976]

This deserves to be heard live to fully appreciate

[@jasonbaker5789]

Saw these guys live last Saturday where did this whole album. Amazing show and I bought the cd the next day and have not stopped listening to it.

[@blackjohn193]

It's phenomal. With that said I can see why it's not loved.

[@Brian19451]

True Primus fans have Notifications on!!

[@pebbleindashoes]

nope they do not even needs them...!

[@gringobandito639]

Truman Fleming you suck!

[@maxwellbrand]

True Primus fans are tired of these bullshit songs and albums.

[@killer070911]

Hehe yeah.

[@FireFox9702]

Max Brand Are you kidding me?

[@Suazilandia6969]

My favorite Primus... Les Claypool... Album. And I love all of them..

[@vintagevitaminj2633]

This is an amazing song. Just amazing.

[@2002jaljacob]

[@CretinH]

No it's from 1978 the author was born in 1944

[@Bishop985]

[@SilasHemmingway]

[@Maverick_Van_Traveller]

[@marcusvodvarka80]

[@brandonrichardson8681]

In the middle of a good one right now. Fucking great job!!! Holy shit!!!!

[@kingeugene7975]

If i have to hear one more super funny and original primus sucks comment i might just shit the bed. They just get more and more funny with each year that passes by.

[@nukekilla432]

Prumos suk ahaha

[@tannerbananer5774]

I guess it's a good thing comments don't make any noise lol

[@Bi_scotti_5]

They're almost as funny as all these comments about ejaculate. Comedy gold!

[@futret1614]

God damn shit the bed

[@mattiaarioldi]

Futrets Ænima I forgot the pen, shit the bed again...

[@patrickw9520]

Great show live, caught them this last Saturday, awesome times

[@Albert4289]

Been a while since I've picked up a bass, but this song makes me want to, and figure out this song. One of the coolest basslines I've heard

[@avosmash2121]

Prog Rock Epic Concept Album, meets Primus. My 2 favorites genres, but never thought they would meet before!

[@treblec4me710]

twisty slappin' & groovy epicnessniss Les Ler & Tim 😃👍

[@CloverTea123]

orange and red...seem pretty.......close

[@CaseSet236]

Bedtime story yay

[@ElizabethHernandez-in1og]

The excursion begins in revelry But the miles compile a sense of disparity And the day becomes perilously long The best way to cope When the end of your rope Is dangling in your face Imagine the taste Of the glory that awaits all ahead Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill It's over that hill The very next hill Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill Paradise is just over that hill Trudging through life Dodging peril and strife Filling those days With a lackadaisical malaise The adventure seems perilously long The best way to cope When the end of your rope Is dangling in your face Imagine the taste Of the glory that awaits all ahead Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill It's over that hill The very next hill Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill Paradise is just over that hill As the miles compile And the journey still seems perilously long The best way to cope When the end of your rope Is dangling in your face Imagine the taste Of the glory that awaits all ahead Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill It's over that hill The very next hill Don't lose heart, comrades It's over that hill Paradise is just over that hill Over the very next Over the very next hill

[@cruelcimmcia859]

Thank you !

[@TacticalVillain]

nilbog....it's goblin backwards!!!

[@VandalJace]

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDD

[@killerjoe3025]

Matt Gonzales redrum

[@SilasHemmingway]

They're eating her...and then they're gonna eat me!!!

[@bassage13]

And you can't piss on hospitality. I won't allow it!

[@myprivatelibrary]

Matt Gonzales fresh air. Country air.

[@atomicvinylreviews3420]

this album is fantastic !

[@ayyyoo827]

This is a definitive cure for a bad trip

[@nickcds3419]

Definitely my favorite so far. Incredible

[@joseluisvelasco4574]

Can't wait to listen "The Storm"

[@bassage13]

My kids are 7 and 9. I bought them the Rainbow Goblins book and this Primus album. We're going to read it together, stare at the artwork, and listen to Primus.

[@gringobandito639]

Great way to start my day!

[@joseluisvelasco4574]

At last, one of the epics of the album

[@maxd1541]

My reviews on the 4 songs I've heard: 1. The Valley - 6/10 2. The Seven - 10/10 3. The Trek - 10/10 4. The Scheme - 9.5/10

[@mapletreegaming91]

JC GuitarRacer i've taken the task of reviewing (with commentary) the album song by song.

[@PoliceBoy465]

I pretty much agree with your ratings.

[@Brian19451]

The Valley was good? More reminiscent with Frog Brigade and the Wonka album. Good intro to the album. At least a solid 7.5

[@skullberryjam25]

Feel the same, except I'd switch the ratings of The Seven and The Scheme (my favorite so far).

[@kobejanssen5844]

I also like the valley least

[@tinhead1112]

Omg I had this book as i was a child.

[@hootyhaha]

5 years now, but it would still be rad to get a claymation video of this.

[@Cookieonbass]

can't wait for this album!

[@daveman9466]

Best song so far.

[@lavignette9854]

This reminds me of some king crimson/ greg lake stuff!

[@suprisepickle]

[@pacapache1]

[@michaszeremeta4745]

Strange but i love this song.

[@thablakester]

Oh! ...and D's Diner in this tune SOOOOO much! I knew I was missing something heh...

[@zdknightsky2852]

Godly

[@SamCaution81]

This one is absolutely killing me.

[@Mindy-ho1ew]

Awesome

[@CoyoteJackson77]

Thanks Primus for providing an amazing respite from an increasingly turd choked world! Les Claypool for president ! Seriously

[@r3wturb0x51]

Lars Walsted you call this respite? i mean its a bunch of dudes jamming at best. still better than 99% of music but their material lacks cohesion

[@luciancorvus9992]

01:48 .... Totally Pink Floyd vibe .... gives me collywobbles! Used to read this book to my kids ... I used Roger "The Hat" from DSOTM as the voice for Indigo.

[@wyvernskin5690]

Wooo!!

[@Aidan.w]

This artwork reminds me of Caress of Steel by Rush.

[@christianscianname6212]

Fucking brilliant! I missed you

[@spcbuffalo-wh4vt]

Just got The Desaturating Seven!

[@spaantz]

The drumming and vocals in the slow part reminds me of Pink Floyd

[@pattymalarkey628]

i fucking love it

[@SugarWolf211]

WOOOOO

[@alistairclark6814]

This is a Lord Of The Strings septology.

[@kilodroppa7825]

Oh yeah yeah

[@wackyruss]

Ler's gone acoustic on us! He's a master of guitarin' !!!!

[@redroosterjoe]

Thanks Dad

[@bassimprovjams3772]

[@davidfisk4735]

[@reposhoo91]

[@DuqueBastardo]

[@DanielGeaney]

Best Primus song ever, Its les right?

[@asdf852asdf]

Cant fucking wait

[@marcjensen4093]

...this is sooooo goood... ;)

why 24 dislikes? This is great. I love primus!! primus sucks, why the hate man?

[@arlieferguson3990]

I think their true calling was as a prog rock group all along. They just missed it by about 10 years. It's a group that to me all about instrumentation and some pretty odd humor. But they always had a sense of bigger themes somewhere in there. Trying to fit all that in to a pop format probably held them back.

[@gregprymicz9947]

god! yes!

[@zKOpTiiMuS]

Watch this when your on cid holy fuck!!!!

[@Metal3750]

yellow knew it all along

[@Alecuccurull0]

this comment section sucks

[@lord_vwfresh-madeweeklymem5129]

Alecuccurull0 no, Primus does

[@unknowninternationalcuntde7172]

Wait does that mean it's good or does it only mean something's good when referring directly to Primus

[@wesleylawhon7301]

any inspiration from takanakas rendition or did you find the book by yourselves and decided it needed music?

[@wildtatz]

I love this ,, makes my brain go in overdrive ,,, wtf is he telling us ? I think It's an old story .. snow white and the 7 dwarfs maybe ..

[@kaptainwombat]

I don't know what's more disturbing, color eating goblins or Ler playing accoustic!

[@dakudayou3513]

Um...could somebody help me with something? (Excuse my bad english) A friend and I are developing a RPG, Persona-like. One of the dungeons, Highway to Hell, has so much Primus-influenced music. Could somebody tell me what Primus song could we use for inspiration for the final boss theme? Thanks in advance
