Primus - John the Fisherman

[GRIMREAPER7752]

Fuck Primus sucks soooo bad!!!

[frizzIefried]

i like when older fans of this band say primus sucks in reference to their old shirts...and then get called names. :[  sad times indeed. my clever online moniker is even taken from their first record! >:O PRIMUS SUCKS! :D

[Dman15553]

can anyone agree with me that these guys are weird?

[Imeandmyselfable]

@Dman15553 Wierd in a good way!!! :D

[isleofmehr]

I was watching south park episode about guitar hero and I heard the name of this song and decided to check it out..

[zdkezios]

dude...les claypool, buckethead, weird al, and Animal. weirdest band ever. (/ 'o')/

[ZexusGaming]

Kirk Hammett of Metallica is In the background fishing on this video

[55CRAVECASE]

@ZexusGaming I thought he was the guy laying on his back on the left when it shows the band playing

[calgar1978]

Primus.........best most original band ever.

[godlywisdom]

This is simply genious.....very creative!!

[frizzIefried]

primus sucks!

[leathalcow]

@frizzIefried assssshooole

[dremtay8]

MAD - I needed to hear some shit like this today. However after reading some of the comments re guitarists I think some people need to check out some of the off da hook shit going on outside of this genre :-) PEACE

[Legionearean]

PRIMUS SUCKS!

[realisticphish]

hahahaha "the guy from mudvayne is better"

[vivaelrock34]

2:52 - 2:56 tim alexander master

[calgar1978]

@vivaelrock34 I couldn't agree more. I can't believe all the negative comments here. LOL All these smack talkers have never even played a guitar, bass, or drums.

[florio131]

yo hes mad good at bass but i think the guy from Mudvayne is really good too i think the guy from mudvayne is better IMO

[jdawg1226]

friend: Whos primus?

me: an acid 90's band

[johnbeenjammin]

les claypool owns any other bassist out there!

[76jnette]

PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[denni95HM]

[denni95HM]

going fishing with primus

[Tman082294]

les claypool makes the mullet look awesome

[BlackjackEddie]

if there was a Primus Fish Co., i would eat fish for all my life....

[mynameisbaldwin]

Lol @ that random dude who's chillin on the boat like half asleep...

[igotstyle666]

press 7 for retarded face lol

[mynameisbaldwin]

2:26 fail theres no crash in the music but he hits it in the video ;)

[ThrobnWood]

@mynameisbaldwin Herb plays all their songs different each time. That's probably one of the reasons why all their film clips are made from their more average songs. "Now Herb, we need you to play as close to the recorded version as we can get for the video. Pick a couple songs off the album." ..... "Hmmm. John the Fisherman & Too Many Puppies are the best bet." But even then we see that he's off on his own tangent. ^_^ Tim Alexander is the most innovative drummer I know.

[ThrobnWood]

@mynameisbaldwin Also, there's a few more drumming differentiations.. 1:30 , 1:55, 2:02, 2:11, your 2:26, 3:06. Herb's so good he even has trouble keeping up with himself :>

[MegaBaseballer10]

best bassist ive ever heard

[Dufflad00]

Those animations suck like primus.

[MrBigqdawg]

The Fisherman's Anthem practically

[naxobreed]

omg.. primus really sucks

[ryguy000]

What's Primus' obsession with claymation, fishing, and cheese?

[MrBigqdawg]

gotta love that main riff

\

[noahsproduction]

awsome



[MrDrokmor]

i read on Wikipedia, that Kirk hammett of Metallica was in this Video. But i just can't find him! xD

[bagheaddenham]

@MrDrokmor He's the fisherman wearing the denim jacket in the background :) He looks at the camera bout 10 seconds in, definitely him the rest of the way thru.

[BLaCkKsHeEp]

PRIMUS SUCKS SO DAMN MUCH!!!!!!

[SlugMenace]

@BLaCkKsHeEp God, Primus sucks is so overused...

[BLaCkKsHeEp]

@SlugMenace

[megabones67]

[sgtraytango]

[TheCratt]

Epic nostalgia

[GeddyxFlea]

screw metallica, PRIMUS 4 LIFE

[NinjaRodent]

@GeddyxFlea can't you like both?

[GeddyxFlea]

@NinjaRodent I respect metallica i just dont like thier music. in the comment im just saying like if Les joined metallica, their would be no primus

[bryandamadman]

@GothicMetallicaFan No, FUCK METALLICA YOU FAGS. Lars the crybaby music sharing fag.

[sakowihe75]

@GothicMetallicaFan once a queer, always a queer

[sakowihe75]

@GothicMetallicaFan i like any metallica fan but the fact that youre gothic makes me question my faith in music. also, youre lame comebacks make me want to smack a gothic with my primus album

[gothboy66936]

@sakowihe75 smack a goth....you wouldnt say slap a jewish..although maybe "you" would

[sakowihe75]

@gothboy66936 goth is not a religion. i respect religions, not idiotic people who dress all in black and cut themselves

[Jeremoey]

@sakowihe75 Goth isn't a type of person, idiot. It's a style of architecture.

[sakowihe75]

@Jeremoey now you jss sound like an idiot

[Jeremoey]

@sakowihe75 Look it up, smart guy.

[sakowihe75]

@Jeremoey obviously it is but its also a subculture. being a smartass doesnt make you right bud

[awald5]

@GothicMetallicaFan Did she mention she was 54, and the fact that Primus Sucks was first coined by Les Claypool, the motherfucking bass god in this video? Didn't think so.

[BlackenedThorn]

Hey douchebags, if you don't like Primus, then get the fuck out.

They aren't Van Halen, but I like their music so shut the fuck up or get the fuck out.

[themightyseptimus]

Primus Sucks

[themightyseptimus]

Primus suck

[PureChillCru]

20 people don't wanna be fishermen

[1joel8]

I've never wanted to fish more in my life.

[xcrookedearsx]

2:09 = Triple H

[TheTaintedStudios]

Primus sucks!

[mikeydoo465]

Goin down to south park, gonna have myself a time!!

[awald5]

Primus Sucks!

[pianoking95]

[BeastonWheels0]

I WANT TO BE>>!!

[vivaelrock34]

I love this era

[xxxoomer]

sup with the haters? |:

[xcrookedearsx]

@xxxoomer Any Real Primus Fan knows what they mean by when they say Primus Sucks

[CreeyOldFatGuy]

its kinda hard not to catch on to the primus sucks slogan when its the highest rated comment on the video haha

[pooper9er]

@CreeyOldFatGuy ikr man its stupid

[ninjabeesh1]

0:09

Kirk hammett!

[Legionearean]

@ninjabeesh1 Primus' guitarist can sound like any other guitarist he chooses. I know; the fist time I saw them in concert Les asked a cow in the audience to name a guitarist for Larry to emulate. He (Larry) is better than any other guitarist in the world; he cannot only emulate their style's, he improves on them.

[randomjoe2000]

@p4p3rcl1p Man I never saw anyone get that aggressive after smoking 'sweet chron', your weed must really blow. If you knew anything about Primus, you'd know the term 'Primus Suck' is an affectionate one from their old fans. I would rinse you even more but your comment already does that nicely.

[MrRonin45enator]

They are going to scare all the fish away if they there not carefull

[randomjoe2000]

Having just blazed a smooth zoot, I can tell you this band Primus FUCKING SUCK!

[p4p3rcl1p]

@randomjoe2000 having just smoked some sweet chron i can tell you to SUCK AMERICAS DICK primus rocks and you are a FAGGOT WHO CANT SPELL SHIT! FUCK YOU im going to listen to awesome tunes now

[DEADEYEDUCK88]

why does everyone hate primus? you searched for there video you fools! C'MON SON!

[ninjabeesh1]

i want a bass with whammy:(

[facebag666]

HELL YEAH at 1:58

[FredettaProductions]

any guy who plays bass like that and plays a song about fishing, and makes it sound good is A OK by me.

[jinzodude]

@FredettaProductions video's a trip tho

[FredettaProductions]

@jinzodude got to love Claypool, I always turn this song up when it's up.

[livin4fishin09]

@FredettaProductions yes!!! very well said. and he has a shirt with a largemouth bass on it. Les is the man. I am a die hard fisherman and play bass in a cover band. I would luv to go fishing with Les and then have him give me some bass lessons! now that would be a day to remember.

[FredettaProductions]

@livin4fishin09 I was just admiring that bad ass shirt as well.

[frkman24]

primus sucks so hard

[metallicakixtotalass]

Primus sucks so hard, dude.

[bryandamadman]

@metallicakixtotalass This coming from a fan of a fucking sellout metal group who has a whiny bitch who cries about music file sharing. FUCK METALLICA.

[metallicakixtotalass]

@bryandamadman lol u mad? ;)

... PS a real Primus fan would get that "Primus sucks" really means that they rule

[b0artJE]

primus is king

the king sucks

[guitarheromazter86]

Old school shit! :D I love this song with a PASSION.

[bubbagump0045]

@guitarheromazter86

[williamtrevormcneil]

0:10 Kirk Hammett looks up at the camera

[rocko471]

Primus sucks!!!!!!!!!

[stickman10000x2]

Les is by far the greatest Bassest ever! Being able to sing so diffrent (in a awsomely good way) and play an amazing bass riff is an achivment so many only wish to be slightly good at!

[ntahlaps3]

How could he play bass like that and singing at the same time? PRIMUS SUCKS!!!

[muffinsNsausage]

the guitarist (i don't know his name) is too serious, he doesn't match les

[wseefried]

@muffinsNsausage les is being serious hahahaha

[jonric888]

19 people need to how do I put this nicely... DIE!!!

[GAZA515]

lol at 2:26 cymbal with no sound

[Johnthefisherman1]

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

[pivot174]

Too bad this band is such a joke. They could be so much better.

[Bubonicblade]

@pivot174 uh... what?...

[amplifyed247]

@pivot174 u suck. nuts.

[metallicakikzazz]

One Two One Two Three!!!!! I LIKE DAT DRUM SOLO!

[Sickr192]

i love his Les' fuckin haircut!!!! what would one call that and where would they go to get it?

[EMOHOLACAWST]

kirk hammet fails, kill 'em all was metallicas best album and dave wrote all the lead guitar parts and solos, and hammet was told to use daves solos as guidelines (copy)

megadeth rules!

*im just starting shit dont pay attention to me

[NoFinduck12]

People say that people like "Flea" are the best bassists alive. If primus were bigger, Les Claypool would be counted in there too. also its one of the few bands where most people talk about the bassist instead of the other parts.

[51ckness]

Les reminds me of Maynard with a moustache.

Kickass song! Like it!

[retrogamerSam]

Primus sucks. Especially the South Park theme song and Hellbound 17 1/2

[CPPrince07]

at 0:11 thats kirk hammett with the sunglasses :)

[Megadedly]

@CPPrince07 Gross.

[cfh616]

[Cenafan1235]

this song is like impossible in GH2

[Smoothbassline]

i heard that kirk hammett is one of the people on the boat

[whilwheaton]

primus sucks

[TonyHarrison2010]

PRIMUS SUCKS is a pet term for primus enthusiasts to express their love for primus.

[dustin3792]

@TonyHarrison2010 I think thats the most educated response I have hear from a primus fan. lol primus does suck.

[muffinsNsausage]

i love that guitar slide thing throughout the verse haha

[twisties10]

this song is the best song i know, this band is the fuckin band i know

[Aeonboom]

PRIMUS!!

[nerdyboyistocool]

i thought it was cool how the singer is actually the bass player that is different =] and cool

[Grapefruitdisaster]

oh my gosh I am so sorry

[Grapefruitdisaster]

okay look if you really don't like primus then why are you people even commenting on this video don't just come here and be all like blah blah primus sucks if you don't like primus then watch something that pleases you because just coming here and saying that is not going to do anything but get people angry

[TheWyldeFire]

@Grapefruitdisaster Primus' slogan is Primus Sucks, they even sell and have worn T-Shirts that say Primus Sucks

[Sideout26]

Primus fuckin sucks!!

[joshuaph85]

Kirk Hammett and Les Claypool are good friends, thats why he is in the video

[Theshark15z]

Cant believe that Korn actually cited from Primus.

[NickRicc7332]

[WHITE5KIN]

this video is so 1990. i love the green waves crashing, these guys smoked so much weed and made some great music.

[TheShrivelled]

everyone calling Les a redneck like it's a BAD thing! toss him in with Jackyl?

that'd be AWESOME to see/hear!

[Honjuden]

@TheShrivelled Jackyl is too shitty for Les Claypool to grace with his presence.

[elephant0666]

if it smells like calamari, go back to the party or you'll be sorry.

[parkourfreak27]

PRIMUS SUCKS

[tat2thaDevil]

DRUM N BASS ARE AWESOME!!!

[000fabien]

i like primus but the bassist/lead singer looks like a redneck

[thollm01]

@000fabien

he looks like a redneck because he is, the best damn redneck out there:)

[thegiraffe94]

Don't talk shit about Les Claypool!

[323YESENIA]

@000fabien  he is a redneck

[REILLYAssociatedActs]

I fuckin Love Primus!

[MegaStupidMagic]
