Primus- Mr. Knowitall- Frizzle Fry

[idiot0803]

the green album was completley EPIC @!!!!!!!!11

[cesedia]

''whatever rhymes with eloquent''

[dkewlguy]

@cesedia yellow scent

[braindrain52389]

also i'm crazy about the lyrics to this song

[braindrain52389]

this is the song that made me crush on tim alexander as a drummer

[debiate5]

Five people think they know it all.

[TastyTexasToast]

...and whatever rhymes with eloquent.

[Purplepants77]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!! Especially this song! Its suckier than the usual Primus suck!

[MultiBob98]

@Purplepants77 you sir. simply are wrong. end of story

[MultiBob98]

@Purplepants77 nevermind i am a noob

[Purplepants77]

@MultiBob98 haha no worries, its all good :D

[toxicblack66]

even though they ripped off green jelly's slogan i still have mad respect for these guy's very talented. lol the drummer is amazing.

[johann53100]

For the longest time I thought this was powerman 5000

[HellsSkulkers]

goodness

[houseshoesbto]

the most badass breakdown ever PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!

[metalfan417]

best band ever

[burnmyfish]

i know someone like this...

[zombieslikeblondes]

Favorite Primus song as a kid. I would just repeat and repeat this one, staring at the cover and wondering, "What the fuck is this?" XD

[Alphawolf299]

one of my favorite primus songs. Claypool is a genius.

[ReadyAimDuck]

There are lots of great bass players. If I were to name every great bass player in my previous comment, I probably wouldn't have enough characters!

[RitaGfunk]

yeah, Primus is one of those bands that completely stand alone from all the rest of the music I love. Les Claypool is nuts.

[admpain]

probably one of my favorite songs, of many from primus, but i think this is my favorite album so far xD

[Npanagakis]

People who think they know everything are annoying to those of us who do.

[StealthTroops]

...And i've such elegant... wait for it.... TASTE!

[theC4K3is4lie]

I CANT GET ENOUGH OF THIS ALBUM. I HOPE GREEN NAUGAHYDE IS LIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JPlatinum333]

@theC4K3is4lie Actually, Les stated in an interview that, with their old drummer back in the band, Green Naugahyde will sound a lot like Frizzle Fry. :)

[theC4K3is4lie]

@JPlatinum333 Yea i saw that, but you can't be sure. Some guy (/user/poopychocolate) uploaded the whole album (i am not bullshitting you) and it didn't actually live up to this, but it's still really good.

[DinosaurViking]

Elephant rhymes with eloquent

[phukifiy]

@DinosaurViking would that elephant be southbound? =]

[AntonioBonderas]

Three people think they're Mr. Knowitall

[belchism]

i saw this live at Brixton O2 Academy in London! WAS EPIC!!

[danprice92]

@belchism I was there too!! Right at the front, got bruised ribs from the barrier, so worth it!

[RossWildish]

@belchism I was there too, so amazing

[critterbugcharms]

@dreamtheaterisbeast

Trevor Dunn too.

[hndsmepete]

People are talking great bassists, go check out Steve DiGiorgio. He's always played fretless bass, but is playing in thrash & death metal bands without using a pick. He was in Sadus, Death & Testament to name a few.

[GDEasley]

Those bassists you mentioned previously are run of the mother f'ing mill... next please. They are good but clearly not the greatists... however.... you are on the right track insofar as they have successfully applied themselves.....etc.

[gleason345]

for those of you who don't like primus, find something else to listen to

[FrozenPhoenix189]

Who the fuck is primus?! Primus sucks! Haha gotta love those geniuses(':

[marxistinpdx]

Primus suck!

[Daltonn0810]

why is it that i just now heard of this band.

[Trotsetukker]

@Daltonn0810 Better now then never! enjoy!

[niminiminimnim]

PRIMUS SUCK!

BAN THIS FILTH!

:D

related video response for all fellow nutters:

user/niminiminimnim?feature=mh­ee#p/c/EE447A69DB78399C/0/FESL­ppWmyjQ

(you gotta cut and paste and put it in after you tube . com/ as it won't let me post it whole :/ ) enjoy!

[eclairep]

@niminiminimnim Oh go listen to your precious little Justin Bieber...

[niminiminimnim]

@eclairep

...and I think you need to go and listen to some early live Primus. : ) (Think Suck on this era)

I love them! They make me happy. And I figure all Primus fans are fun & have good taste so I wanted to share another video that makes me happy the same way Primus do to people who might enjoy it.

Not that it's anything like primus but it's a great tune!

[hndsmepete]

@eclairep You are a tool. Primus' slogan was ALWAYS, PRIMUS SUCKS. Why the hell do you & others think that people are writing it? The damn band created the slogan & had it on t shirts years ago.

[eclairep]

@hndsmepete I happen to not know the band very well, as this is the first song of theirs I've heard, you're incapable of considering that this situation may exist somewhere in the world and I'm the tool? Really?

[hndsmepete]

@eclairep Then do not comment on things you know nothing about like you actually have knowledge of it. Yes, you ARE a tool because you are condemning someone for saying Primus Sucks, yet have no clue what it means. If you know nothing of the band & its the first song you ever heard, then why bother commenting on someone's post of Primus Sucks?

[420karina]

@hndsmepete they call u mister knowitall??

[pennyroyaltea89]

PRIMUS FUCKING SUCKS!!!!!!!!!

[annalee963]

miscreant rhymes with eleoquent

[bingowingz70]

what a class tune...this ones for carl harris....

[ReadyAimDuck]

I don't think therre is a "greatest bassist" of all time. Jaco, Victor, Claypool, Marcus Miller, the Flea- they all have their independent styles y'know? :P

[N0SLAV3]

@ReadyAimDuck its a shame no one knows of jaco though.

[ffukkiebonga]

@N0SLAV3 I lived a couple of doors down from Mr. Pastorius in Fort Lauderdale when he got shot. Nobody in the neighborhood knew who he was then either. I wouldn't say that Les is the best but he does belong in the list. Along with Jaco, Geddy, Bootsy, Marcus. All of them bass players with their very own distinctive sound. Isnt that what makes any great musician?? (Kind of enjoying Tal Wilkenfeld at the moment)

[N0SLAV3]

@ffukkiebonga completely agreed. Variety is the spice of life, it just takes a distinct ear to appreciate different styles for what they are.

[polkafrenzy666]

@ReadyAimDuck Take Flea off that list and add Jean Baudin. I think you'll agree the skill just multiplied by about a hundred.

[lowkey951]

@ReadyAimDuck what no geddy lee of rush?

[Doogerization]

@ReadyAimDuck Totally.

[Kizales]

@ReadyAimDuck What the hell is with your username?

[theroach10]

@ReadyAimDuck And yet, you have never heard of Bill Dickens

[kickyourbooty1]

@ReadyAimDuck there all really good but i think the most talentedis les claypool

[ButtsexV2]

@ReadyAimDuck how can you go without mentioning Carol Kaye?

[Sinsemilla4u]

@ReadyAimDuck Ewww...how do you mention Claypool and Flea, and not Entwistle. Mind you, I like Les and Flea...they are talented for sure. But eww.

[ReadyAimDuck]

@Sinsemilla4u Seriously, the amount of comments i've bloody received in response to this is rather annoying! People have obviously not grasped my message here, these are but a few examples. If you want me to list out every great bass player in history, I suggest that you get youtube to extend the character limit on comments.

[Sinsemilla4u]

@ReadyAimDuck Well thanks for singling me out I guess, lol. That's kind of what you get for having the top comment though. If you're tired of the responses, there's nothing stopping you from removing the comment.

[ReadyAimDuck]

@Sinsemilla4u Don't think I meant that directly at you! Hah, I just get alot of comments complaining about various bass players and it ticks me off. Sorry if you got the wrong impression!

[Sinsemilla4u]

@ReadyAimDuck No worries man. I was a bit tipsy when I made the initial comment anyhow. I've had a top comment on a video before, I know it's a pain in the ass.

[black5bass]

the greatest bassist in the world most be 1. les claypool. 2. Michel Balzary (flea). and final. 3 vicktor wooten.

[IrishWristWatch94]

@black5bass u forgot steve harris



[heavybarz]

i wish i had a hed like that...

[renegades1106]

to the people that compare flea and les. stop please they are both well acomplished bassists. they both have made the greatist bass lines of my time. so don't compare. they both rule.

[RobTheWhiteZombie]

I just read that Primus is the Only band with their own Genre, Unique and Awesome as Hell

[ThrobnWood]

@RobTheWhiteZombie Damn straight my good man:> It's also important to mention, & this is important to remember, that that's Herb on the drums. :O

[RobTheWhiteZombie]

@ThrobnWood But, Of Course :)

[theamazingzivmaster]

This song always reminds me of SA2. Sounds like it could easily be an eggman level.

[quaess]

man this music is the shiznizzle bam snip snap sac

[Eagmr]

primus is great! :D

[DacronIV]

Year Of The Parrot anyone?

[ThrobnWood]

@DacronIV That was in the year of our lord, 1994 I believe. Some no good altered Zeplin riff. :3

[DacronIV]

Hi! This song was (copied?) the basis for that Korn sound IMOHO.

[ezekieloak]

What does rhyme with eloquent?

superdevelopment?

[RoboticsNShenanigans]

@ezekieloak anything that ends with 'ent'?

[ThrobnWood]

@ezekieloak I used to think maybe elephant. o_0 But he must have been saving it for later, ie. Southbound Pachyderm.

[ezekieloak]

What does rhyme with eloquent? 

[iodine73]

@ezekieloak

grandiloquent.

kinda redundant though. :/

[julia17long]

In all seriousness, this bass is...I mean, there's really not a word. It's undeniably fuckin' amazing beyond belief. :)

[ThrobnWood]

@julia17long Don't forget the drums my good lady. Herb is just too good. :3

[totallynotMax]

this song sucks. Its one of my favorite.



[rakudaniku]

@totallynotMax o.O

Logic? There is none.

[Fanchus]

hahaha... this is one of the reasons Primus pretty much suck

[5tonyvvvv]

PRIMUS!!!!!!!!!

[skuffe78]

thats my drummer .



[ThrobnWood]

@skuffe78 I like prefer to think of him as 'The Drummer'. :3

[XdracoX117X]

They call me Mr. Knowitall

I am so eloquent.

Perfection is my middle name

And whatever rhymes with eloquent

[samfrompasingtime]

If you are not a musician I feel bad for you in this regard:what Les and crew do is so mindblowing-ly subtle and complex that a lot of people miss it.

Check out BREAK ME on our site. Thanks

Sam

[ThrobnWood]

@samfrompasingtime Damn straight! Herb for the win!

[Musicalmanmike]

primus is nothing but a jam session. the drummer throws down a beat and they play. THEY SUCK!!

[RoffaCanim79]

@Musicalmanmike

Don't know how to play this huh? Sucker :P

[soldbyorion]

@Musicalmanmike Primus Sucks!!!

[inura25]

@soldbyorion no you just know good music

[soldbyorion]

@inura25 Ever been to a Primus show? My guess is no.

[ShowSumJuggaloLove]

an orgasm to my ears

[TOOL4NAILS]

@ShowSumJuggaloLove  Eargasm

[Brollyhero99TOP10]

Primus is too amazing for my head to take! <3

[deitydhskater]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

[King31395]

The funkiest, balliest, grittiest, heaviest Primus EVER!!!

[neolmski]

Whoever makes primus artwork is a beast

[slappin4]

Heavy sounds right here man.

[Bluetheif]

primus sucks

[sacramento60]

just to clarify. les himself is the one that coined the phrase "primus sucks". he was being interviewed after a show and he told the interviewer that they sucked. that interview became well known to primus fans and so the they started to chant "primus sucks" at their shows. it was a great inside joke for people at a primus concert,just imagine going to a show full of people saying you suck at the headliner like its a good thing.hilarious =p

[harejig]

@sacramento60 ozzy's first tour they sold ozzy sucks t-shirts thats how les got the idea

[anthonymezzapelle]

PRIMUS SUCKS !!!! i moshed the fuck out of this gowing up in the pit

[static3d]

Sick Ler Solo

[evan9666]

lol i got this from evolution skateboarding haha

[Enteri47]

If you say elephant a certain way, you can sort of make it rhyme with eloquent.

[unicron24]

he who knows knows nothing,,,, (the no in thing) the thing called no. nothingness,,, the no thing in us,,,,know thing ness

[SmokieRSWC]

They call me Mr. Knowitall, I am so eloquent. My middle name is perfection, and whatever rhymes with eloquent!

Lol epic. Primus Rocks.

[09sphinx]

0:47 :Q______

[codemaster667]

oh please, everyone still says primus sucks...

get that rusty bucket of bolts to work again and know they don't want to hear it anymore. it's getting annoying as wel.

[tehnoobbusters]

TWO WORDS. CAN ANYONE GUESS THEM?

-PRIMUS SUCKS-

CORRECT! 50 POINTS!

[CubertBeMySuitePee]

@tehnoobbusters You're a tard

[uncwseth]

@tehnoobbusters Man they stopped using that. The irony is way too diluted because, as you can see throughout these comments, it got PLAYED OUT! I'm pretty tired of it myself i must say. Claypool kicks ass!

[cptXmunch]

@uncwseth idk i hear claypool dosent like it but the last primus concert i went to last night everyone was chanting "PRIMUS SUCKS" haha, they suck in the best possible way though

[cheesendfeltips]

think someone clicked unlinke by accident....

[awhite1256]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!



[nickhlosat]

ATTENTION: PRIMUS SUCKS. That is all.

[smartalec1998]

god its been said a 10000 times.... so ill say it again PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[Andyman098]

@smartalec1998 You Suck

[smartalec1998]

@Andyman098 in this case, thanks!

[Andyman098]

@smartalec1998 Enbarisingly I've just learnt what I did wrong there so .. Primus Suck!! and Im and idiot.

[antropoidex]

Primus is the best band, for sure!

Sadly, they have never been in Argentina.. :(

By the way...PRIMUS SUCKS!

[cheseeproductions]

And whatever... rhymes with eloquent.

[Thystonius]

I love the eloquent and everything that rhymes with eloquent, first time I heard it I laughed for 5 minutes straight - genial lyrics!

[piepiepie900]

Les Claypool will never lose his place as best bassist in the world...

[inura25]

@piepiepie900 I have to admit he's pretty cool with sounds and interesting things on the bass but the bassist of Red Hot Chili Peppers is better take Parallel Universe for an example that's the fastest bass playing I've ever heard the bassist in my band is pretty good but he can't keep up

[ThrobnWood]

@inura25 Playing fast doesn't make him the greatest. I though a lot of Flea's stuff sounded the same. Les can play fast when he needs to. Check out 'Is It Luck', or my personal fav, the bass solo in 'Tommy The Cat' off the Suck On This album. It's in my favs.

[bingowingz70]

@piepiepie900 you got it right there.....what a bassist

[SkynyrdX]

@piepiepie900 Steve Harris says hi. But yeah, Les is pretty badass, they've got different style though.

[larionca]

@SkynyrdX

Sorry bro. Good he may be, he plays a 4 string. And a fender at that. You cant have a lesser instrument and be greater than claypool. it just cant be....

[Brollyhero99TOP10]

@piepiepie900

I strongly AGREE!

[thedoors720]

Primus is certainly different from a lot of other bands, but that's what makes them kick ass. they are all really talented and use their skills differently, so that's why they're awesome.

[primusmrknowitall]

Hey, they call me Mr. Knowitall too.

[MrMNblizzard]

Primus is cool beans

[MrBeefcake2150]

dude!!! amen lukep424 AMEN!!!

[bach0401]

This song gets my blood flowing.

[tanniknar]

Man, I love that frying pan! It's the SHIZNIT!

[Gangu1z]

Woah, this album is so epic! They seem to get more awesome every album.

[Dillbob1]

they call me mr, knowitall, i sipped the aged wine, oh i could tell so wondrous tales if i could find the time. they call me mr, knowitall, for ideas they come in bounds, i am mr, knowitall, so spread the word around

[durpadoo]

Close enough there Dillbob1 :)

[ssgoko88]

oh and um what up with the head that was sooooooooooo random it should have been a frenchfry with a face holding a septer XD

[ssgoko88]

i luv this song its there best (except 4 los bastardos)XD

[RussianMindControl]

you guys know they dont use the 'we suck' phrase anymore right? claypool hates it now. why? too many people that really didnt like primus started use it too much.

[wesman2232]

@RussianMindControl and you should know that fans are still going to use it no matter what. Go somewhere else and try that.

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[Watch4]

@wesman2232 If you willing know that Primus themselves are annoyed by the phrase...why would you claim to be a fan and say it? You're a tool who's just gotta do what a typical Primus fan does.

[wesman2232]

rofl. You can't change a great saying, people are going to say it no matter what the fuck u say or what Primus says. I'm still a fan no matter what you say.

[decapitatorskater]

@RussianMindControl Dude honestly Les couldnt give two shits. That phrase will live on even when they come out and say that primus will neveer be again

[decapitatorskater]

@RussianMindControl oh yeah btw PRIMUS SUCKS!!!!

[captainshiner3]

ARe theSE guyS nu ON DA BLOK?? METH

[CubertBeMySuitePee]

@captainshiner3 Are you new to the English language?

[IWorshipMyMusic]

NO word can explain how Primus makes me feel.

a burst of sudden energy from every socket I pour sweat.

[MrtnRohdes]

@IWorshipMyMusic Couldn't have said it better myself..

[tematchi]

perfection is my middle name and whatever rhymes with eloquent

PRIMUS FTW

[arglebarglefoofara]

best Primus song ever
