Primus - The Rainbow Goblins Chapter 6 (The Storm)

[@blurrybaby225]

As a small child, I was never read bedtime stories. Now, thanks to Primus, I have the experience of having a tripped out man reading me a story about rainbow goblins. Thanks Primus! (not sponsored by Primus)

[@meadowlarkgrapefruit1381]

This is a weird episode of Reading Rainbow

What do you mean? All episodes of Reading Rainbow are like this.

"Les is too good" - James Hetfeild

[@nicksquires7034]

He was right

[@spamsingles5948]

James is right

[@shitmultiverse1404]

Ok James, thanks for the unique insight, very cool

[@williamkillingsworth2619]

The last thing that Les Claypool’s bass playing needs is Lars drumming. Lars is a fucking awesome drummer for Metallica but I don’t think it would mesh well with les’s is playing. But I would pay good fucking money to see Primus and Metallica come together and take over the fucking world.

My teacher in 5th grade had this book and read it to the class; every kid was fascinated with it. I actually got it for Xmas that year and wish I still had it. thanks Primus for bringing it back and introducing it to a new fan base.

[@MRFREZZESLUSH]

This was my first time hearing primus definitely a fan this album is cool as hell

[@arthurmarcelopiresdasilva498]

One of the goblins must be called or have the nickname "JoJo"

[@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.

[@AstroObjects]

This guy know what's up. Let's get a continuation the white goblin story is awesome maybe even better

[@dragan2324]

I like how this is just a children's story book... but it's the old kind of children's story. It's not like "Bobby the rabbit went to his grandmas house, and they made an apple pie, and Bobby learned that it's good to work together", its "these little ravenous fiends aspired to greater and greater gluttonous and malicious acts, until the flowers got together and murdered all of them with the very stuff that they most desired. let this be a lesson"

[@doobiesmoke15]

You should write children's books!

[@avosmash2121]

@Gud Boi ...no dude. It's literally, as in actually a hundred percent, based on an actual children's book Les Claypool read over and over to his children during bedtime. He thought this book was so unique and cool, he wanted to make music around it. That's all. Go calm down, chill off the Infowars, and eat some jellybeans or something. Jiminy crickets.

[@1d10tcannotmakeusername]

​@@avosmash2121 The machine of our universe is attracted to patterns. What may happen in a fairy tale may very well happen somewhere in the real world, too. Due to the vastness of our universe combined with the theory that anything can exist, it is possible for basically anything to exist. There are 100 billion planets near the size of the earth and in the safe zone around their star (not too cold, not too hot) in our galaxy alone. There's probably a planet inhabited by intelligent lizards out there somewhere.

[@avosmash2121]

@@1d10tcannotmakeusername ....uh. Sure. That all may be very possibly so. ....still doesnt change the fact that what I said before is what this album is based upon. 😒 Doesnt have to reduce it to being anything bad or insignificant, just because its based on a specific children's story book by author Ul De Rico, and not a deeper metaphor about Hollywood conspiracies and other vague things. Its not my belief or theory, its right there in text on the actual cd album cover that I am physically sitting right next to this very moment. Les Claypool the man himself spoke about it in interviews. It's cool and all to apply your own extra personal meanings to a work of art, if you want to. But to claim thats what the full definite intent was on behalf of the artist, when they are still alive and plainly stated with no ambiguity what the core concept was, it is kinda silly to ascribe more so forcefully on their behalf, thats all. TLDR:....this is PRIMUS ya chuckleheads. Not TOOL. Relax once in a while. Not everything has to be densely over-complicated and heavy all the time.

[@1d10tcannotmakeusername]

@@avosmash2121 And why did you use an emoji? You do realize that emojis degrade your argument most of the time, unless you're trolling or posting a meme. Also, what may be a storybook on Earth could be an actual event on some alien planet halfway across the universe.

[@jordancarpenter7212]

every track of this album so far has been so satisfying for me. i'm especially loving Claypool's effects choice and how LaLonde's guitar parts are taking centre stage more often than in usual primus tracks

[@DongusKongus]

This is the best one yet by far

[@ThatkidwithCP]

This is really really good. I had my doubts about this album but damn boys. Hats off. Will see you on tour again.

[@MarioMario-my5ib]

The more I listen to this song the more I think it's one of the best songs they've ever written. It's not a banger the way Jerry Was A Race Car Driver, Tommy The Cat or John The Fisherman are, but it's so well done and a fine pice of rock music. Easily among their top 5 songs.

[@AChunkyDog]

I read the book to my son before I found this album. Music fits great and I highly recommend the book to any parents.

[@harukoharuhara479]

It's like Primus meets Yes.

[@Kirby1889]

I'm seeing people talk about how this is going to be one of their best albums that I saw complaining about the album yesterday because "The Dream" was too slow. I'm both confused that they've suddenly changed their minds based on one song, and happy that they have

[@TheNumber2l2]

I can't bWRYYthe who gives a fuck what other people think

[@Xists]

This album is amazing when tripping its unreal. Completely different feel to it.

[@heedthemasterscall]

I’d say The Trek & this are the two best track so far. GOBLIN ROCK

There was a LOT going on in that song! I about had a seizure. Luckily though, I listen to this music regularly. (seizure prevention tip: listen to lots of Primus and Rings Of Saturn)

Tour thoughts: since this is "An Evening With" tour, anyone think they'll play the whole album or just certain songs? I don't see 7 songs taking up an entire "set" because the Evening With shows are usually 2 sets, yes?

[@albenmurcia4716]

thablakester probably the whole album plus other songs or the regular set is longer or more encore songs

[@roquesolorio8842]

thablakester they split their concert into two parts they play their old songs first then they have a bunch of Popeye cartoons then they play their new album

[@thablakester]

Roque Solorio that was just for the 3D Tour that they had the Popeye cartoons in between. I remember that lol. That was like 4 or 5 years ago (ish).

[@thablakester]

During the Green Naugahyde album tour which happened after the tour that happened once the album had already dropped, they did the whole album then an intermission and then the 2nd set BUT the title of the tour was something like "Naugahyde Live" so it pretty much gave it away. Ambushing the Storm only really hints at one song on the album. If the title of the tour were something like "An Evening With the Seven" then it'd be more obvious that they'd be playing the whole thing...

[@roquesolorio8842]

thablakester I didn’t go to the 3D tour though lol I went to the green naughahyde tour in 2011 and they still did that
