I think the "Claytallica" situation is a perfect example of how talent doesn't automatically fit anywhere. In the same way Lars wouldn't fit in any other band, Claypool would not have fit in well with Metallica. He's probably the most gifted bass player of all time, but his style was just too funky. He might have fit in the Red Hot Chili Peppers or even Rage Against the Machine, but Metallica was on a whole other spectrum. That being said, I'd love to hear Metallica cover "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver."

Just because Les made it big later in Primus does NOT mean he would have had any clout joining Metallica. That’s just plain wrong and not how shit works when one joins a signed, established band. If he had joined Metallica, he would have just shut up and played bass like a good boy, or been sent down the line. Fact.

There is probably some parallel dimension where cliff is still alive and probably dave mustaine is still there in metallica and exodus is in the big 4.

[@ndfnq7811]

That means Paul Baloff is still in Exodus, and Zetro is still in Testament, so where is Chuck Billy?

[@Streetsurf93]

Nice video! Before 'Primus' Les had a band called 'Blind Illusion' or something like that which was a thrash/heavy metal act with strong prog influences, so I guess at that time (1986) he might have fit in perfectly. Fortunately, he decided to unfold his weirdness in Primus (I'm a big fan of both bands).

[@JTPrime08]

Noice, I play bass and I like Jason Newsted a lot. Flotsam and Jetsam (Doomsday for the Deceiver is a kickass album), Metallica, Papa Wheelie, Echobrain (The Echobrain self titled debut album is amazing), Voivod, Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne’s solo band, Newsted and the Chophouse Band are cool. Jason Newsted is an awesome bass player and musician. Les Claypool is an amazing bass player. Primus is cool. Other than that, cool:).

[@spooktatorbob4867]

Much respect to you, JTJ.. I love Jason Newsted's style and abilities as well. I have much appreciate and respect for him. He is way underrated and heavily criticized. Being compared to Cliff is BS because Jason is his own musical prodigy. I'm not knocking Cliff, we all know Cliff was awesome; but people fail to see how good Jason is because they keep putting him in Cliff's shadow. I'd like to see people look at Jason and say: "wow; he too is phenomenal!"

[@mayhemresurrection]

I too love Jason Newsted he was not Cliff but he held the band with his aggressive bass playing, strong backing vocals and stage presence. Jason was perfect for Metallica style of Music. I miss Jason in Metallica. Jason has been my Idol for bass playing and defined my style of playing aggressively bass. 😀

Nice topic, I think one thing in particular is pretty interesting: the clash between the interview Les gave for the Metallica doc and the one that he did about himself. You know, the "I wept. Like a little girl" v. "It's bullshit. They thought I was a weirdo". What I think is that maybe he was kind of persuaded to say that by either the management or the production, because the two interviews definitely struggle with each other.

[@sogmeister3017]

for going off an idea of what it’d sound like, Primus also did a cover of The Thing That Should Not Be on Rhinoplasty

[@VIDEOSTUDIOS]

I agree with with you (and also with Les Claypool himself) as to why this wouldn't work, as cool as is on paper. When people wonder "what if [person] played for [band] instead of [other person]?", they tend to think of how those artists are now and what that fusion would be, but earlier in their careers, they'd be at different points artistically and personality-wise. So when we wonder what it would be like if Les played for Metallica instead of Jason, we imagine a Primus/Metallica hybrid, when that probably wouldn't have been the case as you said. Still, I'd love to see them collaborate now. Maybe not a whole album because that might backfire (see Lulu), but maybe something like bringing Les on live and have him play the bass part for "Master of Puppets" in his style or something like that.

[@Staklihen]

Primus covered The Thing That Should Not Be (Album Rhinoplasty) and James Hetfield played with Primus on Eclectic Electric (Album Antipop).

[@Malum09]

Claypool would have taken the band in a very “weird” direction. Probably into a Thrash Funk Prog route.

Id love to see that crossover But not only Jasons attitude but also his singing style and musical agression fits Metallica better than Les weirdnes. Cliff was that talented, maybe didnt slap, but he was fast as fuck. Les is a better replacement than jason in that matter but the weirdnes is just too much hahah he would have been lars and James target

[@6789drummerdude]

If you want to hear a collaboration of Metallica’s and Primus’s styles, there was a track on the Primus album Antipop that was guest produced by James Hetfield called Eclectic Electric. It still leans more toward Primus’s sound, but you can hear inklings of Metallica in it.

[@NegiTaiMetal011]

I'd like the scenario of what if Cliff was still alive. Or I wonder what things be like if Metallica got another bassist other than Les Claypool, maybe someone like Steve DiGiorgio.
