accurate description is accurate...not sure why cannibal the musical is in the tags though...might have something to do with primus doing the southpark theme song. its a conspiracy....fuck im stoned
@GuthaxeTheReaper An interviewer once said something like that to Les, upon which Les named a whole bunch of players he considers far superior to himself. And justly so. I love his bass, I´ll never come even close to what he does but there are players that are even better. Stanley Clarke for example blows me even harder off my socks than Les.
@Ojoe2010 Wow Stanley Clarke incredible, ground breaking he taps even faster and stronger than Les. But I do preffer Les cuz he was the first bassist that was recognized as a rockstar.
@Rejito Billy Shehean (I may be wrong on that spelling because I am at work and can't look it up) was the first rockstar bassist. Him or Nikki Sixx. I like Les more than both of the by the way, I am just tossing it out there.
@samfrompasingtime You´re right, i forgot him. His technique is perfect. Honestly, i´ve only heard some songs,never an entire album.I was shocked by the way he plays,but(from what i´ve heard) i think he minds too much about being the fastest, and playing hundreds of notes per minute wich is great but....Which Sheehan´s album would you recommend me to listen to? Anyways, i think Les is more creativity than techique, and for me that´s the most importan thing in an artistic expresion.
@cgraber Good point. Actually i didn´t used the term correctly. What i was really trying to say is that he (as a bassist) was the main musician of the band (the others are also incredibly talented), but he´s just what makes the band special. And that is something you don´t see very often. I mean there are incredible bassist trouThe guitarrist, and the singer are the ones who are often recognized among the others, but in this case is the bassist.
This is such a good song. Its difficult to put my finger on what makes it so good. I dont even know what that instrument is called what les is playing but i think that is what makes this song so funky. Its a very good video as well.
personally, i like the video and primus, but ive never looked at any videos amount of dislikes, i dont know why people care, i mean i know people try their pathetic best to get a high rated comment by saying something "clever" about how many people disliked it, but i dont know... i guess clicking the video and listening isnt enough, i dont know why anyone would care enough to look how many people disliked it
Les looks really period alongside that standup bass in this video.... Like he literally stepped out of the late 19th centruy.... Kinda looks like a young Nikola Tesla... I think this one of primus's best songs....
@DimeLivesInUs omg i pressed wrong button but i meant i liked it lol.. i have listened to it about the same .. i like em blesss... crazy im 41 years old had a mum and dad who loved all music and it sounds like going back big style... just a drunken, up and coming redneck opinion from england
..................... this is proof that technicallity doesn't always win over good songwriting! Even tho Tim is a 10x better drummer than Brain, this is one of their best written trax. writing>skill. respect!
i agree. you know, my aunt loves Led Zeppelin, my dad loves Pink Floyd. the bands of that time were great and all, but i feel that this is my Led Zep and Pink . this sound is much nicer to me.
i found primus when i joined my first band.. i'd heard John the Fisherman on GH and my friend was giving me tips on how to impress the guys in the band. He said they liked Primus and that Les Claypool kicks ass and so i listened to some of Primus's tunes and was sucked right in.. Should get some more of their stuff, only have Pork Soda and Antipop.
lol that put a big hole in your BS theory. The song was released well before it ever appeared on MTV. I think maybe your confused with Ministry's Jesus built my hotrod lol
