- My Name Is Mud" is a song by the American rock band Primus and is the first single from the 1993 album Pork Soda. The lyrics are written from the point of view of a blue-collar man, Aloysius Devandander Abercrombie, who has killed his friend after an argument and is now trying to bury him. The song samples the line "Where are you goin' city boy?" from the film Deliverance.
The track's title refers to a common derogatory phrase that implies its recipient is "a stupid, twaddling fellow".
In 2010, Primus released a new version of the track sung entirely in Spanish under the title "Me Llamo Mud".
The song inspired the theme song to NXT's group SAnitY.
Mud in the video clip: played by Christian Bale
Mud in the live show: played by Edward Norton
Explains above comments re: Bale/Norton conspiracy.
You are sick in the head! I love it perfect! Dead on the money.
Thought he was Tyler durden. Lol
@@gustavorodriguezv6311 wasn't that Pitt/Norton?
😂😁🤣😆😅
00:11 is the most violent sound i ever heard from an instrument
We will never hear anything like this again.
Matias Clavell listen to “public castration is a good idea” by swans. That live album is like that the whole time.
The man at 1:03 looks violent
Gorguts - Obscura, check that album
Matias Clavell it made me nut durig november
I still can't get over how he can play such an aggressive bass line and sing at the same time and just look chill.
Ah! Singing - so that's what that strange noise was!
Acid
He's not "just" doing that. That's tough stuff
Weed
Watch Geddy Lee..
Give the bass all the credit you want but that guitar work and tone is absolutely sick. Throw in a monster drummer and this is why Primus is so good. Each and every member is a master of their craft.
Primus sucks
@@guynoir5968 sincerely
concur. Drummer is on.
Are you serious dude, this is awful.
@@Shepsolo3116 Should be "I think this is awful".
I've never seen les dressed so normally
Big change from the music video lol😂😂😂😂
everyone else that played at the event dressed up as clowns so he is actually out of place.
I almost thought this was Les’ Mexican cholo cousin 🤔🤔😂😂
His dress is part of what makes this so great
ikr
Les looks like he's in System Of A Down
Metalkid1500 Him and Serj could actually pull something off if they really wanted to
He should be
He looks like a fusion of Serg and Daron
+MetalKid1500 Looks like he wasn't sure if he was Mike Patton or Serj Tankian
The best supergroup of all time would be:
Maynard James Keenan - vocals
Serj Tankian - vocals
Larry LaLonde - lead guitar
Daron Malakian - rhythm guitar
Les Claypool - bass
Danny Carey - drums
I' do anything to make it come true.
In 1993 , nobody ever heard a song like this before. l camped out in front of my local record store along with 30 other people waiting to get the new Primus CD. What a great time to be alive.
I agree. I’d only heard of Les Claypool from reading bass magazine before I heard him play or heard of Primus. This was the first Primus song Id heard. I saw the music video. 🤯🤯🤯. I went out and bought Pork Soda immediately.
I bought it when I was in college and the first time I played it my roommate thought I was a nut but it really made me appreciate the weird (or forgotten and lame) side of music for the first time. I'm still on that path and I'm in my 50's.
Blew me away, couldn't believe anyone could make a song like this either!!! Song good stoned af
You could have just gone at your leisure, there's no way such awful crap would have been sold out lol
@@icankillbugs this shit is fire bro! Has been since the day it was made! One of a kind.
The 90’s were so good. That crowd doesn’t know how good they have it.
These guys weren't that known, and there were loads and loads of good rockbands..
Just think Metallica then and GnR. They sold out bigger than NFL and the Olympics
They didn’t make very good songs but they played their instruments well.
Exactly my thoughts
Bosnians, Yugoslavians and Russians did not have it good in the 90s. Quite the opposite in fact.
Yes they did.
Everyone back then knew how awesome it was to be alive with such great music around. Like everything was awesome. And it was pretty obvious.
1:54 This guy is really catching them Primus vibes, I like that
he's got the Primus Palsy
@@madam_im_adam 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Freaker by the speaker 🔊
and behind him is cody rhodes
Edward Norton is killing it on bass
dude i was looking through the comments for this, i was gonna say something if i didnt see anything with Ed Norton mentioned. hahaha i thought the exact same thing
You mean Mike Patton from faith no more
😂
Ed Norton...lmfao!!!
Ikr lol
I can't play a straight bass line without staring at my left hand with my tongue hanging out in concentration. Les plays the worlds hardest basslines in odd time signatures while eyeballing the audience and singing, before strutting around the stage like an R Crumb comic character. A genius.
This song is all 4/4 it just sounds kinda wonky
I laughed out loud at the comparison of Les and an R Crumb 'toon... too accurate
imagine 1 second. now start a sentence 1/7th into that second. Now snap your drum 7 times per second, and start saying your sentence on the second snap. It may be complex, but it's still rational.
@@DemoboyOotones and sevens
There use of silence is under fucking rated. It’s hypnotic and artistic af.
Right!!! Like around 3:50 just so good
Seen Victor Wooten and jd Blair do measure pauses and the beat honestly kept going it was unforgettable.
The ct bass sure clunking away in this one
Where? Oh, over there? That silence over there? That one?
The showmanship of this genre...👌
(underrated)
It’s the space between the notes that makes all music

this is not herb, this is brain
2:07 Larry flicks the E string with his pinkie just to fix the ways he’s holding the pick
Excellent eye, wow what a level of finesse that was.
Those sounds the guitarist makes is incredible
Bluesy evil tone ! 10/10
Not sure people understand how consistent this song is played and what it actually requires as far as timing. Les is a true artist and genius. Very ahead of his time.
Team Lers
How the heck did the drummer know when to stop at the exact time at the end?
You're not as clever as you think you are 🖕
How can an human being could have a bass sound like this, it's incredible. So coool
That's because it is not a human
It’s the Funk. He’s in touch with the Funk. Check out Bootsie Collins if you like hard core bass playing.
@@jimerex2619 No his name is Mud
It’s just experimentation with sounds
He’s not Human.
1:07 I spy a cop
Yeah very cunning undercover. But it's Ron Swanson
That guy is definitely not having fun 😂
Nah, dad just chaperoning his daughter
Nah, he was vibing
Yeah, Officer Doofy.
Nah, that's somebody's Landlord
who took their Concert Tickets
in lieu of Rent. He took BOTH tickets but only used one, and got black out drunk and sxually harrassed over a dozen Girls
at this concert, then he got beat up in the parking lot and passed out behind the Dumpsters.
Les Claypool, so 🔥 if only we knew how good we had it then.
Right on brother, the fuckin truth. Say it again 😢🤘
Les Claypool. A literal God.
I grew up with Primus and love their music. I struggle with it because although I enjoy it, it leaves my soul feeling "icky". IDK, rock on!
I love the march Les does around the stage while playing My Name is Mud
I walk like that all the time
0:20 the ad-libbed "Huh" just added a whole lot more than there already was to the song. It was just a great fit.
Absolutely--comedic, relaxed and a "call to arms" all at the same, succinct time.
On the tweek again - Primus: Les does the “HUH” a lot, you’ll love it!
I think Les’s comedic style disguises the genius in their music , amazingly talented and completely down to earth,what legends they are ❤️🙏💥🥷
I wish I could go back to 1997 and stay there. Our music was so much better back then.
THE CROWD LOOKS SO AKWARD.
Well, you know what kinda music they listen to
it's Primus dude
That is cause you’re a millenial. You’re last word tells the story. Listen to thr music mate.
@@zachdahlgren1027 David Hassellhoff, remember how big they are into his...um, music? That answers it for me.
It’s either primus fans tweaked out of there mind having fun or regular people just wondering what there listening to
Les dressed this way to he could go straight to church after and wouldnt have to change.
What a nice boy. So good to his mother too. Tithes regularly.
Or dressed to drink a beer in his front lawn 😂
This was a church service lol
More like the mall.
It's funny that this concert actually was on a Sunday 😂
Tim is one of the most underrated percussionists.
that ain't Tim, that's Brain
This is not Tim
This is Brain dude. Equally underrated.
This comment went over everyone's heads
No way
All fans know Primus is a 3 virtuosos band
My name is M.U.D. 30 year old mud. But this song will never dry out and crack. Timeless talent.
Wow literally everyone there is on every drug
I think, either LSD, Weed, Tranqs (tranquilizers), and maybe heroin, being the main drugs he-wait, when did primus start playing at raves
Coca in the late 90s
No, heroin.
I was there and for some reason after someone put a drop on my tongue there was a bright light following me around the rest of the weekend
This is the track that inspired me to learn bass. Pork Soda was light years ahead of its time.
Same I’ve played for 5 months now because of this video and am in the process of getting a 6 stringer
(I play a 4 stringer)
Most bands have a bass player
Primus is a bass player with a band
@@Ross_gitar_bas maybe just play with the 4 string for a few years. Even les hardly ever brings out the 6 anymore.
In my case, listening to Primus made me drop bass.
@@jrhayes6901haha yup
This crowd is super calm. I saw them in 1996 and the pit was insane
I looked at the lineup of this festival - reef, primus, phish and Steve winwood all played on that Sunday and it shows
i like when les plays something heavy and he just starts marching, les is such a legend
wow serj can play bass well
He looks more like John
He looks a lot like John
The 90s had some of the best underrated music of all time.
And LOTS over overrated crap too.
Best music period.
Agreed Chevy girl. This crap ain’t it though
Haha no
90s music>>>>>>60s/70s/80s music combined
Was blessed to see Primus at Aragon brawlroom chicago in mid 90's , room was crazy, great show!
I feel sorry for people who didn't get to experience the 90s
Yep, you can see the effects. Bunch of snowflakes
I couldn’t agree more.
It was a rough come up but the peak seemed to last forever.
I did at the Cains Ballroom in Tulsa in 97 and Les created what felt like an earthquake with that bass lol.
Had an amazing childhood that decade
That bass sounds sharp and painful, like someone smashing an old rusty bike. I love it.
Great description!
I feel like it's two old, dented, galvanized steel garbage can lids--banging together like giant symbols.
I think it sounds like an old pickup truck idling, heh.

1:36 Oh thanks Rockpalast
A bit late
why tell us the name of the song 1 minute after it started
Aloha amigos. Once upon a time, in a Universe a long time ago, the 80s, myself and band, played at People's Park, Berkeley, CA. Mother's Day, 1989.. This up and coming band opened for us. Primus. They rocked. What a band they turned out to be... The Atomik sends. Peace ✌. 😊
Not only staying in sync through each bar, but counting them while playing to know exactly when to stop on the last beat is unreal. You can see the sheer concentration required for that feat on the drummer's face, amazing
You'd be surprised how much music one can memorize after writing and playing 1000 times . Not to mention physical cues . It's really not that big of a deal , to musicians.
Exactly and they feel it like it's their second nature
I’m sure there are vocal cues coming over their ear piece also to help with timing that down but still impressive. Primus will always be that unique, raw music that reaches a different part of you. Legends …..
The cool of Primus is that the crowd is very variated, in the side of long hair guy headbanging is a guy with clothes that people use when they go to Oxford University
Good song to listen to while drinking a beer.
I drink my wine
With ya here
@@ivans.191 most the time
eu to tomando COROTE
I was when i used to drink lol
I’ve never seen such an respectful crowd. Much love
The way they drag the last beat late at around 3:45 is incredible, such a tight performance
Came here looking for this comment. Absolutely amazing.
Edward Norton sure knows how to play bass!
The perfect girl dosnt exi... 2:19
The girl at 2:15 is pretty hot too..
You can finish your statement lol
@@jarrodmeacham1650 but she don't do what the other girl do 😁
Wow
Mr Idle Hands hottie metalhead sweethearts are only real in dreams
Primus was my favourite band in the 90s I remember I stole sailing the seas of cheese from my sister who's 7 years older. All the other kids my age were listening to spice girls backstreet boys and I was rocking out to these guys.
1:07 beautiful woman in her prime. Takes me back to this time, she's only a couple years older than me I'd say at that time, but she got to see Primus, I never did. Lucky girl
1:05 spot the undercover cop
He definitely blends in. Look at that slightly sideways baseball cap. I think that one is just a normal delinquent youth.
The dude abides
That bass is aggressive as hell.
The guy at 1:54 is a legend! Rumor has it he is still there jamming.
Hail les all day but Larry laLonde doesn’t get the praise he deserves . Soooo damn creative . Perfect accompaniment to Les . All three of these dudes compliment each other so well.
They are amazing live is sounds exactly like the recording
Ladies and gentlemen Christian Bale!!!
I was thinking Ed Norton! He was in Fight Club
Loool I thought I'm the only one who thinks Les Claypool looks like Bale
I've been watching wondering why Batman's voice was so high.
@@maryward613 My first impression as well.
@@ze-ce.cra_ My second guess. After Edward Norton.
Just goes to show. The rhythm section of the Chillies is the greatest rhythm duo ever. Flea and Chad play with passion iver skill. Never always the same notes, but always the same energy
I've never seen such a diverse group of characters as that audiance. I miss the early 90s they were the jam. Golden age of tunes
it blows my mind how fucking good this song is
this song is a great story.
cudowny! Jeden z najwspanialszych basistów wszechczasów...
If Woodstock '94 was the best live version of Those Damn Blue Collar Tweakers, then Rockpalast '97 is the best live version of My Name is Mud
This is the best sounding Mud for sure.
00:05 anyone els see bill nye smoking a cigarette in the front
i cant breathe help
This comment possibly better than the whole performance
Isn’t it true Metallica turned Les down because he was too good?
Claypool is crazy technical...i think it was a simply a matter that he was overqualified...
Ye is
I heard Les turned down metallica 😂
In the audition, all of the Metallica guys were head-to-toe in black clothing, and Les showed up in tie-dye and started funking out to an Isley Brothers riff... and none of the guys in Metallica could keep up
He auditioned as a joke mainly, and he doesn’t fit their style.
"We had our words: A common spat. So I kissed him upside the cranium with an aluminum baseball bat my name is mud."
Best lines in the song
What i would give to go back to 1997...
The guitar players hair sums up the 90s. Completely.
But now all the balcks have that hair style.
Joseph Stalin can really play the bass
God I miss the 90's.
The old couple at 1:07 is like "WTF are we watching?"
He looks like a substitute teacher.
I have to agree with a previous post. Between 9 seconds and 11 seconds in is the sickest and absolutely the BEST BASS rift ever recorded!!! And the one woman. The brunette she really got the vibes from the music!!! Primus!!! One of the BEST bands EVER!!! To date!!!
Couldn't agree more about the intro to this song!! And I, too, am loving how the brunette has "synched" with the bass's every phrase, ragdolling her head around perfectly, showing she's been "transported!"
The way les bounces around while playing is amazing
I love when Les does his duck walk after a fat bass lick. Guy is such a hero!
0:11 earrape without any editing
you mean earpleasure
It’s both at the same time lol
The guy at 1:54 is such a dad.
Acid
Looks like Bowie
How did I miss this brilliance from those days?
What a phenomenal performance by Primus! Thanx for the music & the good times!
Bad ass song🎵🎙🥁🥁🎸🎸🎶ending was great.
The crowd look as scared as a "city boy."
Les Claypool is one of the best bass players of all time.
My favorite 3 piece of all time
here Les looks like a chemistry teacher enjoying his side job.
1:09 Jimmie from mithbasters
I almost died to Primus...a nurse brought me a live set on disc.
All I wanted to do is wake up this morning and start my day off with some live Primus. Mission accomplished!!!! I have a feeling that today is going to be pretty darn close to the best day ever!!!! Just feels right!
Les definitely is one of the great bassist
Definitely creative as hell but there are players far beyond his skills. Even he would tell you that
not as good as Krist Novoselic 😅
That was a good show
I saw Primus during this time. It was amazing.
Probably my favorite version of Mud recorded.
Any modern band even close to this? Change my mind. This kind of stuff will never happen again.
6AL-4V Probably because the unique genre was extremely rare even back in the day when alt. rock like grunge ruled the radio. You never see anything similar today because the Primus genre is endangered. Once they disband or die, that genre will go with them.
Of you can't find modern music that you like then your not looking hard enough. I'm assuming your only looking at the surface of modern music. Dig a little deeper.
@@rvaugh230 Keep dreaming. Nobody cares or would want to put the effort into it. If you have to look that hard it's not good enough.
@@rvaugh230 He’s saying Primus is one of a kind.
I love it when Les does the "keep on truckin" stroll around the stage.
Beautiful song. ❤ Primus.
The guitar player is amazing aswell. This is just a badass band. They're all pros.
Insane talent. One of my ultimate faves for sure.
This audio is really good. Someone did their due diligence tuning up that mic. It's perfect.
Throw out everything you thought you knew about music and you get these 3 geniuses. god bless
90s we’re a good time to grow up
When you have church after your show.
I always liked this song.... Straight creative...
Brain is probably my favorite drummer of all the drummers that have played with Primus full-time. I enjoy watching his facial expressions as he's concentrating. And he's got a great pocket when he settles into it.🙂🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
is it just me or is that bass neck really thin for a 6 string?
