Bro I see you in the comments of like every Primus video I watch. I'm glad someone else is obsessed with them as I am lol Especially you man your videos are dope.

[@robscallon]

I would love to own that bass

[@schwarzerpeter9432]

nothing without l ´claypool

[@awienc]

Everything in Primus sound so fat. Those drums, perfect beat, guitar, meaty, atonal solos and of course the heaviest bass on planet. Primus doesn't fit in any genre but they play the most heavy music ever.

[@nr655321]

+Wiencon It's quite revealing that the main guy is a carpenter. The music actually sounds as if it was carved in wood. It's very physical.

[@jeffreykazanjian2399]

They have balls man. To sound so heavy and WEIRD...WEIRD is brave. You can sound heavy like thrash metal and people might be like, "Well, it's not me but I can see how people like it." With Primus it's like, "What the hell? He's singing about beef? This sounds so...weird." Fuck yeah man. I love it.

[@nr655321]

Well, this sound doesn't come from nowhere either. Captain Beefheart, Zappa and King Crimson ("Discipline" record) had their share of influence on Primus.

[@thomassinnott4995]

Jeffrey Kazanjian o

[@thestarwarsnerd46]

wiencheck agreed

[@mwmwmwmwmwmmwwmmwmwmwmwmw]

Larry's guitar solo here is brilliant. That man deserves a lot more credit than he gets.

[@gargaj]

I love it, it's as if the brief was "give us a blues solo but make sure you don't hit any of the right notes".

[@drakegravely5261]

He gets the credit where it matters, from people that know how good he actually is!

[@samcarroll6210]

The Brown Album is extremely underrated, it's one of their funkiest releases

[@colestevers3687]

Damn straight

[@chadmiller7876]

Yeah I always liked it best , just hypnotic to listen to. This and fisticuffs were my favs

[@sgtbaker2072]

hell yea

[@ryanmartin3248]

One of their jazziest as well

[@kcmichelson4528]

It's my fav album then Frizzle Fry. Took me yrs to decide lol

[@stevenast5294]

Man, i remember catching this on TV as a kid staying up late and watching things I wasn't supposed to. Thank God i did, because I discovered Primus.

[@JS-te4gz]

Showcase....😜

[@curnwah11]

Fuck. Took me 20 years but just diving right into Primus now. Hope I get to see Les Claypool live.

[@JiaKe]

I showed this vid to my sister. She said she had no idea that the Batman can play bass. lol

[@Boognish_]

I think she meant Bruce Wayne...

[@ondagster]

wow i never knew christian bale was such a good actor. .he looks like he's actually playing bass here..lol

[@mattiswhereitsatmattiswher2192]

Les plays the most filthy funky ass bass on earth

[@NasukeTheWolf]

les has the most gigantic tone in this video. it cracks me up because you can clearly hear it above the guitar and drums. it's just overwhelming.

[@SubZeRoy9]

Can you imagine being there? Lol must have sounded orgasmic.

[@stanknugget]

That cracks you up?

@@stanknugget The answer is still yes

[@DanielVerberne]

This is one intoxicatingly thick, slamming track. It's been a welcome earworm for me recently.

[@anamethat]

Lerry LaLonde is such an underrated guitarist, i have yet to find someone who uses such a unique set of licks and applies them so well.

[@VWagenMan]

One of the best sounding live bands is "Primus"

[@SOMETHING6223]

just another sic solo from ler...criminally underrated

[@patitopototopototo2253]

Amen

[@mistacoz]

SOMETHING6223 I think this maybe my favourite Ler solo. But really, who cares which one I think is best? They all suck! ;-)

[@JRocco2021]

Still criminally underrated in 2019

[@martyscovers2022]

I made a guitar cover of this song.

[@s695579]

Though the herb is my favourite and the best drummer that has played for Primus, I always like Mantias much more than any other sound than any other Primus drummer. Its got a certain shininess to it which sounds really good.

[@terribleclimber.6867]

Same here. I think it was how he hits drums so damn hard! Herb was/is touch and feel. Brain is pure power. Fast attack and quick decay. I heard George Carlin say (not about Primus): "It's not enough to know what notes to play. You need to know why they NEED to be played." Brain meant every note he played.

[@RockandrollNegro]

Herb's good, but Brain Mantia is on another level. Listening to his work with Tom Waits and Primus, it's just kind of otherworldy.

[@mattledrew7904]

Les Claypool looks like Christian Bale

[@julienolan5695]

Matt LeDrew And Ed Norton

[@awienc]

Julie Parton And Serj Tankian. But none of them looks like Les, weird.

[@awienc]

christyinspace Yeah I had a lot things in my ass thorough whole life

[@thestarwarsnerd46]

Matt LeDrew agreed

[@celesteengel6444]

AND... ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC ! ha!

[@NoxiousPond]

Brain is the only drummer ive heard that can groove like bonham. the whole brown album is pure bonham.

[@jdyico]

I had no idea Zlatan Ibrahimovic's dad is more talented than he is.

[@herostatus]

My thoughts go back to the Primus/Rush tours. Two of the best bassists, same show.

[@GuapDolo]

If the color brown had a song, this would be it.

[@ididcramsmom]

Brain = The best Primus drummer of all time

[@Boognish_]

Tim is 10x better.

[@samcarroll6210]

Every Primus drummer is awesome

[@cocksniffer9155]

yomfnmammy that's a silly thing to say.

[@k.c.lejeune6613]

Tim, Brian, and Jay are ALL great drummers.

[@Wabbowl]

How so?

[@lettux]

The groove of this song is awesome!!!! the whole band is excellent, but a drummer is amazing!!!

[@friedfishruff8096]

That last roll of Brain... brings sweat on my brow!:-)

[@drumsrfun16]

such a killer groove! I love how its soo heavy and catchy!

[@EmptyDomoKanti99]

every time he pulls on the string, it sounds like construction site noises it’s awesome

[@shotgun4838]

Edward Norton would make a great Les Claypool impersonator for a movie

[@Clintotron]

This version of this song is one of the heaviest things I've ever heard from Primus. Love me some Primus.

[@conleycrew76]

by far my favorite primus song

[@bingybangy]

Still the best version, magnificent.

[@DaveMorgansMartian]

I was a teen in the 90s, but I'm only now just getting into Primus. There's nothing at the time (or today) that sounds like this. It's about as heavy as a power trio can possibly sound. Many metal bands would kill to get this sound. But also many funk bands! That's not something you often hear.

[@home1261]

they make a movie on Les we all know who's playing him.

[@ClusterFugue]

I love this! I like this version better than the studio version off the "Brown Album". Ler's little fuckup at 1:38 and the couple of rather stern looks Les throws in his direction immediately thereafter are amusing as hell to me! Good stuff! Thanks for uploading!

[@Li77LMaRk]

always been one of the most underated bands out there,thats why i love them

[@tinobaricic]

larry stoned and claypool on the virge of laughter

[@AaronVoorhees]

I saw Primus at Outside Lands this past summer. It was HERB playing and he rocked! The footage is on here. Great cinematography. Great set! So glad I was there!

[@tuomasaalto6024]

Brain doesn't get much appreciation as a Primus drummer but I really like his style. Lays down a solid beat with swagger and authority.

[@debbieduraj9389]

Love this band 💞

[@PanasonicTooth]

The riff even makes me laugh

[@alistairwalker1109]

Brain absolutely murdered this show performance, the energy is insane, bring him back please!!

[@JackDelMaro]

damn, the look to normal for primus

[@pipelinekilltime]

great riff...

[@AcidZack]

love his smiling at 2:15

[@TheNationalPool]

This is such a good tune. The drums are vicious on the album version. I've even mixed it into a few Hip-Hop DJ sets I've done.

[@spikesvideos]

so much power from a 3 piece!! love it!!

[@W4RD1N8ER]

Love this shit shake hands with beef sound so good and twacked like myself. His bass skills are Grade A I hope one day I can play my bass just as twacked as him, Awesome band!

Les Claypool is a bass Playing God, nobody can play as sick as this man. and Larry lalond is awsome on 6 string to play along side him. this performance "live" showcases there abilty together.

[@LuckilyHeDied]

I'm a Tim Alexander man all the way, but goddamn - Brain is a total badass sometimes. One of my very favorite Brain-era Primus songs. Great performance from the trio.

A great Song from a Fantasistic album! Brown that is!

[@JazzyJonas]

I really like Primus with their newest lineup. Brain kicks ass! The groove is just deep and they rock out even to the verge of metal. However, "Tommy the Cat" is still my shit!!!

[@despicablenerd]

Les is one of the best Base guitarist i have ever seen and i watch a lot of videos and listen to a lot of music. Most bassists are bland but he really gets the most out of it! Can anyone think of a better bass guitar player other than Les? :P

[@JayReviews]
