I recently played this album for the first time in what must be 10 years and my opinion hadn't changed. 25% class and 75% filler which is probably how I would describe Primus on the whole. They have done some damn catchy stuff but all that bass noodling just gets on my tits after a while.

However, some of his side projects (Oysterhead, Fearless Flying Frog Brigade) Have him quite a bit more subdued in flippity-flippity-flop dept. As a bonus Frog Brigade has been known to play Pink Floyd's Animals from start to finish live, although they've never managed to do it the few times I've seen them. |

I tried getting into BRMC a bit but my prejudices of comparison invariably led me to the sentiment that even Howl was never nearly as good as the heyday of the Brian Jonestown Massacre. Take It from the Man! absolutely shits over anything Peter Hayes has performed on since... The Brian Jonestown Massacre Straight Up And Down - YouTube

I also am pretty partial to Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel's Highball With the Devil. I think it takes everything that most have come to know and love about Primus without so much of the cheesy schtick that has gotten in the way of a lot of their music. |

Amazing stoner Metal. Some of the coolest, thickest, most bad ass guitar tones I've ever heard. I love this. So much. Very dark, creepy black metal. Thanks very much to Stu for this, it's ****ing fantastic, especially the opening track. |

glad you liked this album.....i highly suggest looking into Der Blutharsch and the Infinite Church of the Leading Hand's debut full length album which came a couple weeks ago (and came nicely wrapped in gold leaf ).....the same as this but without the darkness that Aluk Todolo brought to this album....also Seven That Spells which is part of them....amazing super fuzzed out psychedelic jam rock from Croatia!...good stuff Quote:

Hyatari - The Light Carriers Great Drone Doom album, at times feels like your skull's having a sledgehammer applied to it, but they provide respites with masterfully-executed tonal shifts. There's some Sludge and Industrial influences thrown in to the mix as well, and it all comes together to create this single, throbbing mass. Excellent stuff. |
