Fun fact: Les Claypool was buddies in high school with Kirk Hammett. When Metallica was auditioning replacements for Cliff Burton, Kirk invited his old friend Les to try out. The rest of the band was impressed with his chops, but thought he was too weird to fit in with the rest of Metallica.
The best part was what James actually said to Les was "You're too good. You should be doing your own thing." but Les being Les, took it as them just being modest and the real reason was because he was too weird and didn't fit in, which is more likely true lol.
Metallica truly sucks!!
Metallimus in a alternate universe ha!!😂

No wonder I was thinking of South Park when I hear this song haha
The nachos and cheese reference is for the album this song was on, “Sailing the Sea of Cheese”. Fitting for a Primus album name.
First major label album for them.
Jerry actually went out and played during one of their sets with an amazing solo.. I'll have to find the song and share it in the group!
Last Tool concert I went to a few years ago Primus opened up!!! Great show!
Love this song man, Primus is too cool.
Next song up from them should be My Name is Mud, the bass guitar will blow your freaking mind
"Hamburger Train"
The Air Is Getting Slippery
😉👍🏻
Primus and Alice in Chains did indeed toured together..they co-headlined Lolapalooza 3 in 1993...went to their show in Barrie Ontario...My very first mosh pit...and my last lol. Kickass shows by both!
Must’ve been fuckin awesome. Shout out Jerry Cantrell as well, one of the best songwriters ever.
Yep, saw it in NEW ORLEANS. PHIL ANSELMO came out during A. I. C.'s set & sang "damn that river".
Was at Barrie Palooza, that mosh pit was insane! There was no space on the ground backstage after AIC's set, just bodies laying on the ground due to dehydration, sprains.. you name it! Never seen anything like that at a show since.
Also, Tool was still playing 2nd stage at that time, and I remember the crowd was so large, it went as far back as the village with vendors. That was an even more brutal pit imho!!
@@dmphax rage against the machine was playing that show too right. Can’t imagine seeing AIC/primus/tool/ratm all on the same bill. That shit is legendary. Tool played main stage at most of those tour dates but side stage on a couple of the dates as well, I think ratm was Mainstage the whole tour.
@@puppetmaster8551 yep RATM was there! They were on main stage. Tool did get moved to Main stage for later dates, and Babes in Toyland got moved to second stage. It was an incredible experience for sure. So much talent jam packed into one day.
Hell YESSS!!! Trash Talkers UNITE FOR PRIMUS!
People didn’t know what to make of them so Les would sometimes introduce the band by saying “We’re Primus and we suck”. Also, Primus translates from Latin as “first” which is fitting in so many ways.
This put a big smile on my face. Thank you.
Those Damn Blue Collar Tweekers should be a working class anthem. At every "Hey-Yaa! " I replace it in my mind with "Pay Up!" lol
Fun fact, Larry Lalonde the guitarist was a student of Joe Satriani!!
The whole claymation ship on the cheese at the end, is in reference to the title of the album, Sailing the seas of cheese.
The claymation at the end makes more sense when you know the album title.
When music was first available online, there were a very limited number of descriptors for genres, like Rock or Country. Eventually there was a huge variety, like Porn Groove or Acid Funk Jazz, but at the beginning, when they just didn't have enough classifications to go around, Primus were given their own genre title - Primus - nothing else fit. Jazz, Rock, Funk, etc........nope. They're just Primus.
Thanks Tony Hawks Pro Skater for introducing me to this song, even though I could only hear 2 mins of it on the PS1 version.
Great reaction guys, can't find Primus - Tommy The Cat, have you not done that one yet? it's pure class!
Lacquer Head is pretty rad, too!
Butters the cat is better
Yessss!!! The live version of TtC on Suck on This! Its the best.
TTC was my entry into primus. I love hamburger train, is it luck, and here come the bast***ds
The live version of Tommy the Cat!
Awesome reaction as usual, guys. Dig it 🤘🏼🤘🏼
More Primus please.
Mr. Krinkle or My Name Is Mud would be cool
You two should check out their song "Too Many Puppies"
After seeing Primus twice in concert, I have decided that trying to follow Les Claypool's vocals is an exercise in futility. He sings so fast and low that it is too difficult to hear, so I just go with the feel and he overall sound of the song to keep up. Works for me. I'd go see them any night I could. Next up, "My Name Is Mud" or "Wynonna's Big Brown Beaver". And yes, Primus Sucks!!, in a good way.
Been done did catch up ruclips.net/video/bcD8h6My8rg/видео.html
Agreed. I have had to look the words up and even after knowing the words, Its still hard to keep up with Les...
Mr. Krinkle is one of the best videos of all time!!
Getty Lee from Rush was the lead man who played the bass!!
Sting plays bass and sings oh my god you guys STING!!!!!!
Les and Maynard were actually in Green Jello together before Primus or Tool were famous. Also one of the best bass player frontman ever was Lemmy.
Green Jello was so much fun. Would have been an awesome show to have them and Primus tour together. Green Jello sucks too.
Green Jello suxx! 🤘
Maynard was. I don't think Les was.
Is there any actual evidence Les was in Green Jellö? Because I don’t think he was.
@@AICJDR Les was not, but Maynard and Danny Carey were.
Think this was on their album 'Sailing on the Sea of Cheese' - hence the cheese and the animation at the end!
Yes, it was. Sailing the Seas of Cheese was my first Primus album.
They have a whole "world" . Tommy the cat , John the fisherman...Jerry lol ! Ect awesome guys!
Peter steele of type o negative is a frontman that played bass that comes to mind.
Les and Larry were in a legit metal band called BLIND ILLUSION. Their first record The Sane Asylum is a masterpiece of thrash and highly regarded in the community
Bay Area baby
I have a Tool tour t shirt that has Primus listed as the support band so you were right that they toured together.
Because Primus are a genre unto themselves, people didn't know what to make of them, so as a joke Les would introduce the band saying that they themselves sucked. On their live album, 'Suck on This' he says at the end of one of the songs, "Thanks a lot! We're Primus, and we suck!" And in the far background there's a response from the crowd, one guy yelling, "That's right; you suuuuuuuck!" Les has said he kinda regrets the Primus sucks schtick, but it's stuck with them.
As for other bands with bassists as singers: Rush (Geddy Lee), Motorhead (Lemmy), Pink Floyd at times (Roger Waters). Just to name a few.
Your next Primus song needs to be another one off of 'Sailing the Seas of Cheese' (arguably Primus' best album). That should be either "John the Fisherman" or "Tommy the Cat" (which features guest vocalist Tom Waits as the voice of Tommy).
Back in the day you could choose genre "Primus" for your mp3's in WinAmp.
WinAmp was such great mp3 player..
I'm so old. xD
Primus is bomb! Very interesting style to say the least! My favorite comment about Primus was "Primus is not for everyone, heck Primus is bearly for anyone, but if you are one of those people you will love it"
"Hee hee hee, dog will hunt" is from Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 said by Bill Moseley who played Otis in House of 1000 Corpses & Devil's Rejects. 🤪 Primus came to Atlanta on my birthday once and that was a fun day.
And Moseley did an album (s?) with Buckethead where he basically reads poetry over BH's jamming; and BH was in at least a couple of bands with Claypool. Funny how things are connected!
@@jbfranz7376 I actually own some Cornbugs albums lol Bill Moseley also did music with Phil Anselmo but Cornbugs is hilarious
@@eljefebridget NICE! I couldn't think of the damned name of the band! I also loved him on BH's 'Onions' - Bill's a badass!
@@eljefebridget I work at a hospital where patients have to have code words to be contacted. One used Corn Bugs. I asked if that was from Bill Moseley's band and they couldn't believe someone knew what it was from. I later told Bill about it at a convention. It was a funny conversation.
As far as Bassist / Singers / Frontmen that haven't already been mentioned, I'd like to add:
Rob Wynia from Floater (PLEASE check out 'The Sad Ballad of Danny Boy")
And Troy Sanders from Mastodon (to be fair - almost everyone in that band sings - "Oblivion" is my favorite from them)
I've played guitar and drums in bands where I could do vocals, but I've also played bass in bands, and trying to sing while playing anything beyond a VERY simple bassline, is freakin' HARD for me to pull off. Props to every bass/vocalist everyone else has mentioned. Thanks for the reaction, guys.
My favorite bassist/vocalist is Peter Steele from type o negative. For primus I would suggest southbound Pachyderm or my name is mud.
Hell yeah I love Primus I remember when they came out it brings back memories man love your channel guys❤❤
The guitarist Larry was the one on the skateboard - I always thought that was cool.
Motorhead, The Police :) lemmy and Sting, also Typo O Netgative. Peter Steele, all fantastic bass frontmen
Geddy Lee…..vocals, bass, keyboards
Yes, I was just going to add this comment!
I love stuff like this so great job there. I do have a request as well... Rollins Band - "Get some go again"... quite good tune
One thing that truly sets these guys apart from everyone else (amongst all the other stuff they do differently), is that you have a lead guitarist that don’t mind taking the backseat to the bassist. That’s some rare shit right there.
back in the days before the intraweb, there was this thing called "tape trading", in the back of metal magazines were tons of ads by people who were willing to trade a copy of a cassette tape they had for a copy of a cassette tape you have, sent through the USPS of course. Alot of regional acts gained popularity this way, including Metallica when a producer in NY got a hold of a copy of their cassette from SF, and got them their first break,
Love what you said Hollywood about how music can touch a person in diff ways!!❤️
We adopted it from the haters at the time! Most "rockers/metalheads" couldn't get PRIMUS.
Arguably the best song on THPS1
lol you beat me to it. Those games introduced me to some amazing artists, same with GTA lol
Very close second to Goldfinger's Superman
@@mikethemotormouth that’s my number 2
Fuckin great soundtrack in general. The dead Kennedy’s “police truck” and Jerry was a race car driver are prob my top 2 from that soundtrack
More Primus ✌️🤟🤘👍☝️
As a bass nerd, this is my first song to play live
When cliff burton, from METALLICA, died, les claypool tried out. And they told him he was too good. Facts. I was into primus before all the Seattle bands (and I'm from Washington)
Love bass!
Speaking of primus and Metallica the primus cover of “the thing that should not be” is a pretty damn great cover in my book
Jerry Cantel played with Primus at woodstock 94, I was there
Gotta love a bit of Primus. One of my fave songs.
Meanwhile , the Fox God has delivered.
Monochrome , the next song from Babymetal.
🦊🦊🔥🦊🦊
Gary Meskil of Pro Pain is bassist and vocals. Foul Taste of Freedom and The Truth Hurts are still my favs I listen to this day.
Thin lizzy
Morbid angel
And of course, that all mighty SLAYER all have bassist vocalists
There’s a town in Northern California called McKinleyville, we called it “Oklahoma By The Sea.”
Metal, rock and all the other rock style genres I've loved for as long as I can remember.
The album this was on was Sailing the Seas of Cheese. That is what the Cheese was about at the end
Wes the guitar player of Limp Bizkit cites Les as a massive influence. You can see that on the likes of the song Nookie.
I remember back in high school in the 90s I got in trouble for trying to use premus music in one of my school assignments. The teacher was not happy and I did not care.
Best bass player imo, slap and thump at same time. Check out Tommy the cat
Paul McCartney, primarily played base. He could do it all, but usually base when playing live. For the Beatles he played base.
Alice In Chains/Jerry and primus are friends, the headlined lollapalooza in like 93 and have been friends ever since. Jerry has come out on stage and played with Primus before and Les played bass on 2 songs from Jerry’s great solo album Boggy depot, Rex from pantera also played bass on 5 tracks from that album. Cantrell is friends with pretty much everyone in general everybody loves Jerry, Rob trujillo of Metallica did all the bass on Jerry’s 2nd solo album and mike bordin from faith no more did all the drums. Anyway I’m rambling now but Cantrell is the GOAT in my book and primus rules as well, les the GOAT bassist too.
One the best live acts ever.
Yes!!!
The song tells the stories of two characters, Jerry, an ill-fated race car driver who collides with a telephone pole while driving intoxicated (hence the use of "was", in the title) and Captain Pearce, a retired fireman.
The first time ever i heard Primus was in Guitar Hero 2, the song in the game was John the Fisherman and it was such a weird listen for me at the age of 13. Over time i got more used how to Primus play and listen to more of their songs and discovered how bloody talented the 3 of them are (Of course Mr. Claypool steals the show with his playstyle and voice)
I recommend you the song i just mentioned or maybe Tommy The Cat
Every track on guitar hero 2 was covers and they didn't have the license where guitar hero 3 had the actual tracks. Primus devil went down to Georgia was on that.
@@jamesthemachinedean Yes i know thay but even when you pass from listening Metallica or Linkin Park, Primus is still a weird listen the first time, listening to them is like tasting wine
Primus is out there like Pluto man!!!🤪🥴🤤
I could never get into Primus but I don't dislike them either. The drop in this song was heavy 🔥 Primus do make for fun reactions though 😂🤘 Tom from Slayer is the front man and bassist.
I feel the same way. I couldn't really get into them but don't dislike them. I do like a couple songs. Lol
Of Primus? No he isn't. Les Claypool is the front man/singer/bassist, etc. Larry "Ler" LaLonde is the guitarist (trained by Joe Satriani), and the percussionist depends on the album. It's currently Tim "Herb" Alexander, who has been on most of their albums, including this one.
@@Matt-ob3it 😂 they asked for a nomination for a front man who also plays bass. That's why I said Tom from Slayer 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the Primus drop today!
My name is Mud!
You guys always do. Rappers reacts to one song, but now that we're talking about Primus, why not do rappers react to an entire concert? The South Park Primus Ween concert to be exact.
If one song gets copyrighted the whole thing comes down. As much as that would be cool, it wouldn't last long.
Pink floyd Roger Waters is lead vocalist and bassist on some songs also tom Araya from slayer ie vocalist and bassist. A lot of bassist that sing tend to be the chorus singer only/or backup. Or like the band psychonaut they are a 3 piece and the bassist and guitarist harmonise together
I have two bassists who are also the vocalist for you:
Jan-Chris de Koeijer from Dutch death metal band Gorefest
Micke Broman from Swedish black metal band Astrophobos
SLAYER, Tom is the singer/bass player
Troy sanders of mastodon is another great example of a singer/bassist. One of the best and mastodon’s discog the last 2 decades in metal is pretty much unmatched
(a few) Singer bass players:
Rush, Type O Negative, Motorhead, NoFX...
Bad omen -like a villain 💯🔥
Tom Araya from Slayer is the bassist and vocalist
The lead singer of Slayer was also their bassist.
Shake Hands With Beef is a fun one, or DMV.
I *still* can't listen to this song without thinking about skating Downhill Run in the original Tony Hawk Pro Skater.
Sailing The Seas Of Cheese are such a great album. They once played a show in my home town. 90 percent bass players or more showed up
Beatles, Rush, Slayer, Motorhead, all bands with singing basists. Also steal this album was a bunch of bsides that were leaked all over the internet, so they then decided to make it a compilation and named it steal this album.
Filmed at the Phoenix theater (Washington and Keller) in Petaluma, Ca. Race scenes from Petaluma Motor Speedway, Petaluma Fairgrounds. The Phoenix theater has hosted Green Day, MegaDeth, Danzig, Metallica, No Doubt, Mr. Bungle, and many others. For some reason the small NorCal town of Petaluma, Ca. loved to fuckin' rock and party. Also, there is a half pipe inside the theater, because during the day the theater serves as a youth center.
Sting - Tom Araya - Geddy Lee - Gene Simmons - Paul McCartney
Just a few off the top of my head.
Les Claypool played drums in a band called Electric Apricot. They made a mocumentary very similar to Spinal Tap called "Electric Apricot and the Quest for Festeroo", featuring several very popular musicians from Phish and Gov't Mule among others. One of the funniest things I've ever seen.
To put it into perspective. Primus are the comedy version of Tool
Les would say that to the crowd at the beginning of shows when they first came out. He’d walk out to introduce themselves and say” We’re PRIMUS! and we suck!!”
You guys have hit a lot of stuff. Hard to think of stuff to suggest I'd think you'll like. Some stuff you might like. Nine Inch Nails - Wish, Filter- Hey Man Nice Shot and Lo Fidelity All Stars - Battleflag. Keep up the journey!
Geddy Lee of Rush - Bass and vocals.
Saw these guys tripping acid in 94... just insane... these guys are fun as hell but make no mistake....they are incredible musicians.. seen the 7 times total and never disappoint...
One great song I'd recommend next is Lacquer Head. The lyrics are pretty deep and the bass solo will knock your socks off!
Great choice, my late Uncle was a Lacquer Head...
"He sounds like boomhauer" dude shit had me rollin.
Off the top of my head, lead singer/bassists; Geddy Lee, Lemmy, Tom Araya, Phil Lynott, Peter Steele, Al Cisneros, Roger Waters, Sting, Jack Bruce, Fat Mike,Mike Watt, Kim Gordon, John Burke Shelley and one of my all time favs, Rob Wright
The cheese at the end was for the album title. Sailing the Seas of Cheese. Geddy Lee of Rush and Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead were both singers and bass players
Another band that had the lead singer also playing the bass???? BIOHAZARD from Brooklyn New York...... IN...YOUR... FACE!!!!!! 🤘🔥🤘
Oh yeah...... Type O Negative.....
Frontmen who play bass off the top of my head:
Tom Araya - Slayer
Lemmy Kilmister - Motörhead
Glen Benton - Deicide
Geddy Lee - Rush
Peter Steele - Type O Negative
There are probably a hell of a lot more, but I can’t come up with anyone else. They definitely aren’t as common as a guitarist or pure vocalist, but they’re out there.
They opened for Rush back in 93. I've been a fan since then.
You guys should check out Tommy Emmanuel. His song initiation (live from centre stage). Tommy is Australian and all self taught. He is considered one of the greatest acoustic guitarist of all time. The sounds he creates throughout this song really take you on a journey. I believe it was written about male aboriginal youth growing into manhood.
💕🤘🏼YES…love me some PRIMUS💫…I’m so old school I still use CDs and Pork Soda and Tales From The Punchbowl are in my car right now😎My Name Is Mud is just super funky…Bob is a primus style tribute to a friend lost to suicide…knowing so many in my life I really appreciate it💙🌌 thanks for another morning made better by you two!🌻💚
Edit... Concrete Blonde is a badass band out of the '90s with a bassist front woman! Johnette Napolitano has one of the coolest voices you'll ever hear, check out their single Joey and go from there✌
Tommy the Cat is my fav Primus but anything from them makes me smile. It’s the funky bass that gets every time.
Seeing 3Teeth, Primus, Tool in 16’ STL was an amazing experience.
Drowning man. Best primus song ever!
I see no one mentioned that the guy in the beginning was Johnny Knoxville.
Gotta do My Name is Mud! We will be waiting...
