^That OWNS.

Claypool is a great bassist, he's got skill and showmanship. And he makes it look damn easy. His vocals are wierd but they have an aquired taste (I like them alot). I <3 Primus

I've only heard Claypool in primus, but I think he's a brilliant bassist, and primus are very good.

Oysterhead are an extremely bizzare band, you would have to be totally tripping balls to really get into them.

it is a really great album, the production is rather thin, but they are excellent
