The lead singer Les Claypool is easily a top 3 bassist of all time. This man's skill is insane and his variety of voices are iconic
What Bran said!
LC and Victor Wooten tie for 1st IMO
Their bassist is a good singer too
I agree
By far, my favorite Bassist
"My Name is Mud" is one of my favorite Primus songs. You're always going to get something unexpected from a Primus song. The instrumentals are always going to be insane...the lyrics are unpredictable.
Another super quirky one. One of my personal favorites.
My name is mud is the song that got me into Primus. Saw them only once live. Opened for Rush and the Rush fans weren’t having it. Until Primus closed their set with YYZ!
my name is mud was my favorite song as a toddler lol, i loved the video because my moms boyfriend had a DVD of their music videos
absolutely
I love the Live Heineken Open'er Festival 2011 version.
Primus is so badass that if they did regular songs they’d break the planet.
I think my fave is “Tommy the Cat.”
Tommy the Cat is bad ass
More Tommy the Cat Please.
Yeah the guitar in Tommy the Cat is no joke.
Tom Waits lending his bad ass voice as Tommy. love it.
Yup. Tommy the Cat.
The quintessential reaction to Primus. Amber said, "I'm speechless. And yet, I have so much to say." Perfect!!
you guys nailed it. Primus is....Primus. They are their own thing. It's not an easy style to get into, but if you acquire the taste they're great
Primus is like Zappa. Once you “acquire the taste”, you’ll keep going back to the well……
I'm 68 and love Primus, PRIMUS SUCKS. !
you bet your ass they suck!
@@dennisgschmidt6167 rock on brotha! you are 100% correct primus does indeed suck! the suckiest (best) band ever!
Lead singer and bassist is Les Claypool.
If you want to try any more from them, 'My Name is Mud'
He is hands down one of the best bass players ever. 👍🍀
He's a bit of an acquired taste, for sure, but when shopping for a new bass dude would test out potential purchases by playing the bassline to "Roundabout." That says something.
Les auditioned for Metallica in 1986
@@marcdewey1242 and was TOO GOOD for them!
I forgot all about Primus! I had a roommate who LOVED them, and I ended up going to their concert with him. The "seats" were just rows of grassey slopes and got pretty slick when they got wet. We got separated and I slipped in spilled beer and slid down a few rows. I was just like, "Oh. This is how I die. Stomped at a concert for a band where I only know two songs."
But then some huge dude picked me up, set me back on my feet, and stood behind me the whole rest of the show to make sure I was okay. (Nobody even tried to grab my ass! It was great.) I never caught his name, but thank you, large kind man at Compton Terrace 20 something years ago!
I saw Primus on tour with Anthrax and Public Enemy... Must have been thirty years ago. I don't remember much but I'll never forget Les Claypool on his bass guitar doing a back and forth scratch battle with Public Enemy's turntable DJ. It was stupid cool.
I’m so jealous. That’s an amazing lineup.
That show was amazing!!!
I got to see that tour in Oakland, was it around 91? Completely epic🕶
@@lisemzarate4029 Yeah, '91 or '92. In Seattle. I was 18 maybe 19. We got downtown early before the show and we actually saw Flavor Flav on the escalator at the Westlake mall. We were going up and he was going down. We hopped the guardrail and chased him into the street. He signed our Anthrax t-shirts. Wish I still had mine.
@@jhamler1 90's was killer, I moved to Edmonds in 92, we used to go to pain in the grass alot, my favorite local was Grunt truck 😝
Les Claypool is a hell of a bassist! Class of his own. Fun Fact: They did the theme song intro for SouthPark!
Love Primus! Thank you 😊 Les Claypool is a genius on bass. They've done a cover of "The Devil went down to Georgia." Metallica was blown away by his audition for the band.
Part of the thing with the nachos in the video is the album this came from was titled Sailing the Seas of Cheese. The lead singer of Primus is Les Claypool and he is also the bass player. He is known as a world class bass player for his unusual technics of tapping, slapping, and flamenco style strumming. The bass is a main instrument in his songs. You really want another good one by them do "My Name Is Mud". Les acts out as the main character in that video... and he is a character... LOL 😁
This was an awesome suprise, Primus is one of my all time favorite bands. They take a bit to get used to but the 3 of them are unbelievably talented musicians, Less Claypool is regularly regarded as one of the best Bass players off all time. They have so many great songs, Too many puppies, American life, John the fisherman, Bob Shake hands with beef the list goes on
The singer's name is Les Claypool. Absolutely an influential bassist. His style of playing is unmatched by anyone else from the 90s on. Technically speaking, In theory, it is impossible to sing or even play lead over his style... but yet here they are doing it and doing it well! This was my first introduction to Primus back when they first came to light. Been a fan ever since! Tommy The cat is another great song to listen to next!
Yeah, that's why their guitarist (Larry Lalonde) plays such noodly guitar over the top rather than any kind of traditional riffs or shredding. Because Les's basslines are so complex, the guitar kind of has to sit back and let the bass take the lead, otherwise it would get way too busy. Musical composition is always a balance and Primus flipped the script on how bands usually use the guitar-bass combo which is part of what gives them their unique sound.
Primus is too good. You should check out the song John the Fisherman next! The bass goes so hard on that track. Although, the bass goes hard on every Primus song
Primus sucks.
Yup and yup. Fish on!
The entire Fisherman trilogy.
@@sanzoftatooine I wasn't aware that a trilogy has four parts. Neat.
to counteract the absolute awesomeness.. Primus' self proclaimed slogan is... well, Primus Sucks.
fucking GENIUS.
Primus is a band that is in a genre all their own. Les Claypool is an eccentric and superb bass player with a quirky vocal style. Check out Frizzle Fry or John the Fisherman next
And that's a bass, not a guitar that you referenced in the first break. Love me some Primus. Just gotta be in the right "frame of mind" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In all fairness, it's a 6 string bass in this song. Easy to mistake its appearance for a guitar.
One of the most unique bands you will ever hear. I think Les using the bow on a stand up bass in Mr Krinkle is probably their most unappreciated sounds. Truly amazing.
Damn Amber you've come a long way. Really cool to see you rocking out to the heavy part and liking it!
Les Claypool on vocals and bass. He actually auditioned for Metallica after Cliff died. They had no idea what he was doing. The guitarist was one of legend Jie Satriani's guitar students as was Steve Via abd Metallica's Kirk Hammett. Tim Herb Alexander is a great drummer as well.
They said he’s too good for them!!! Not what they’re looking for!!! Hahaha
What you described as a funky guitar is actually the bass. It's a particularly challenging bass riff on a 6-string bass
Les Claypool is an insane bassist.
"The air is getting slippery" is my personal favourite Primus tune. Such a funky, fun song.
YES!! I love that song, and it seems to get overlooked by everyone.
Forgive me if I hesitate....
Too Many Puppies, tremendous song and hard bass line.
Im glad I grew up to the music of the 60s, 70s, & 80s..... LOL
Fun fact: Primus just did a tour where they played Rush's entire A Farewell To Kings album.
I bet that really brought the band closer to the heart.
saw it in indy! plus the did a bonus set of just their songs!!!!
You dhould have done My Name is Mud. The drumming on that track is fire! 🔥 🔥🔥
Yeah it is!! 🔥😍🔥
Primus is so fucking badass. Took me years to actually get around to listening to them and they’re by far one of the most compelling bands
My step dad was from the same area of Cali as Les Claypool. Pure Oki accent from his parents running from the Dust Bowl. He is a musician's musician.
I've never heard of Primus before, so this was my first time hearing this song too! It was trippy! Lol. Btw, I love your Stevie Nicks shirt ... she's amazing! Mission accomplished - y'all made me smile again today! :D
Throws hands up in the air, “Well… it’s Primus”. Everyone sounds like they are doing their own thing, complete chaos. But manage to pull it off.
You should check out Gwar. They are rockin’ aliens from outer space. I hope you’re intrigued enough to give them a try.
GWAR!!! might be a bit crazy for you guys,but they are surly cool to see live.the band is pretty extreme visually,but they are the nicest people in real life.really cool band,but very intense.I was on stage with GWAR at a concert,was put through a fake meat grinder by them!!😃they are one of a kind!!definitely worth the experience.😄
@@stephaniegeer1691 I’ve seen videos of that. What an amazing experience you had.
You have to check them out live! Insane skills. It’s funky, it’s wild, and insanely technical. Les Claypool is a living legend
The "Ahhhh" mimics the sound of race cars going around the track & heavy guitar solo the sound of revving engines...
It's so cool to see you guys grow and evolve with every new song you listen too.....the best parts of my education came from music.
I hope that when you eventually get to Tommy the Cat (probably their most well-known song), you do the album version and not get talked into the live version. It's hard enough to understand the lyrics in the studio. The live version would only give you an impression of the music. Cool, but you want to hear the full song, lyrics and music both. It's one of those live performances that's really good, and everyone wants to recommend it, but it should be heard AFTER being familiar with the studio version to be able to really appreciate it.
I like the live, maybe because it was my first exposure to them, I'm thinking lyric videos might help
The funniest reaction based on your reaction to date. The looks on your faces when Les began singing then the solo breakdown. Amazing
Jay my all time Bug guy!! I’ve been with you since your very first video. I was one of your very 1st subscribers. And love you and Ambers energy.
Primus is Awesome! Les Claypool is one in a million. You know he tried out for bass player of Metallica back when in the day and they turned him down because he was awesome but just not the style of player they were looking for. You should react to the songs My Name Is Mud, or Tommy The Cat next!
I love seeing Amber now embracing the heavy!! You gotta sprinkle in some heavier bands here and there, there is so much you've NEVER reacted to. Try SEVENDUST!! The song Live Again is a good intro! Also if you liked this song you'd love Suicidal Tendencies too, they're quirky too. How Will I Laugh Tomorrow is an amazing song! So is Nobody Hears.
Just saying.... R.SENAL KNOWS METAL!!! 🤘😁😎
Always loved Suicidal Tendencies' 'Institutionalized.'
@@damonhines8187 all I wanted was a pepsi, just 1 pepsi
Please react to "Heaven Can Wait", by MeatLoaf
Or (LIVE with MSO For crying out loud!
What I love about this video is they actually recorded it by replaying the song several times at the same show and the pit would just get crazier every time.
Loved!! watching you experiencing Jerry ... to me it's an existential story of life - Jerry "He drove so goddamn fast / He never did win no checkered flags /
But he never did come in last" ... "Jerry was a race car driver / Twenty-two years old / One too many cold beers one night / Wrapped himself around a telephone pole, go!" Sad :( but so can be (is) life - loved watching you guys!
Not all of their songs are odd like this one, American life is the perfect example of that, no crazy moments and it talks about the realities of life.
YES! Primus sucks!
I love you two, and glad I found this reaction, as Primus is one of my faves. I never liked Primus back when they first came out, but I have come to really appreciate their TALENT. The 3 of them together are SO tight.
I'm glad you guys looped back to check out more Primus.

@Alexander Griffin yes, Richard Willis is the best. He is the only one I can leave my investment with and think less about it, he is my money maker. I just received $13,000 of my investment last month. I am very happy because he is leading me to financial freedom.

*Ever since I sold my house and cars and started investing in crypto in 2021 with Jonathan Brathwaite my life has changed with hls top notch tradlng skills.*
I know a bunch of people probably already said this, but the bassist and lead man for Primus is Les Claypool. This brings back memories from '90 ('91 ?) when this came out, I was working at Kemp Mill Records and bought Sailing the Seas of Cheese on a whim. A couple of my coworkers needed ride home that night, so we're just bouncing around to this in my car as we're driving all around Springfield, Alexandria, and Arlington on some weeknight. Cool how music can bring up the most random memories.
Again, another trio of fantastic musicians.
Primus sucks
Primus sucks!
Y'all are gonna hit 300K. Big loving ❤ 😍 smiling fam.
The singer's name is Les Clay pool. He's playing a six string bass for this song, My Name Is Mud and others
This song live is crazy! The entire pit just erupts when he hits that "Go!"! They were a fun show to see!!
Primus, Helmet, Rage, 311, those bands opened my fresh teenage ears up to a whole other style. I was never the same. I hear radio music from that time period now, and I'm like "why don't I remember this song", oh yeah, I was listening to the good stuff back then.
I first heard Primus 2 years ago when I saw this song on some MTV 90’s channel late at night. I was so confused what was going on but I couldn’t stop thinking about the song for some reason. The more I listened to it the more I loved it. Now, to me, it’s a classic. Les’ bassline sounds like he’s playing multiple at once and Larry plays those cool textures on guitar.
:D This was great. First time hearing for me. Thanks to whoever suggested it. :)
Funny how sometimes when you hear the first song of a band and it's still your favorite song after all these years, that is true of this Primus.
Such a cool band. Saw them at the boathouse in Norfolk va. It was a tiny venue right on the water. So many big bands would come through right before they got really big. I saw so many great bands there for like 10 bucks. My hubby and I went there almost every weekend. When we were young teens early 20 s. Loved discovering new bands there. It was torn down a few years ago after a hurricane. A huge loss to Virginia history. I hope someone grabbed the wall where the bands signed. So many greats.
The look on y'alls faces at the beginning, lmao! I was dying!
"Tommy The Cat", "My name is mud", "John the Fisherman" and "Over the Falls" are awesome.
Ha, when I saw the title I lol'd, remembering especially Amber's face on the Big Brown Beaver reaction. I thought you were being very brave. But now, I think Primus just may grow on you guys! It took me a few listens back in the 90s. Rock on!
Love to watch you guys watch Primus! Haha! I think this was the first song I heard from them then Tommy the cat!
So many good songs from these guys! One of my favorites from early on is, Too Many Puppies.
The frontman -- singer/bassist now has a band with Sean Lennon -- the Claypool Lennon Delirium. Yes, that Sean Lennon. And they're truly worth checking out.
Les is insane on bass he can make the bass do things you wouldnt think it could
Primus was one of the best, obscure bands, EVER assembled
The intro to "Fish On (Fisherman Chronicles, Chapter II)" is what made me fall in love with Primus.
Was never a Primus fan, but I loved this song back in the day, great surprise to see it today!
When I saw John Entwistle play bass in concert with The Who…my jaw dropped….I had the same reaction seeing Less Claypool the first time
Bassist/lead vocal Claypool was born in Richmond, California. He only sings with a mock accent.
And not to forget the genius Larry Lalonde on guitar!
'Sacred Cow' is another great one, that really slaps! (Literally and Figurative).
Proud of you guys for trying again, Les uses his quirky voice to his advantage and tho it can be hard to catch the lyrics, the more you listen, the clearer they get. Pudding time, To defy the laws of tradition and My name is mud,were family favorites in our home, Tommy the cat was remade in the late 90's I think, but the original live from the pudding time e.p is my favorite, and first Primus song I ever heard, John the Fisherman is awesome too.
Your face during the Nacho intro was amazing lmao
One of their funkier and more cohesive tracks also has one of my favorite song names ever: "Shake Hands With Beef" - the drums and bass create such a hard groove.
Two top hitting and singing at the same time is crazy.
"My name is MUDD" Performed at Woodstock 94!
Fun facts: Primus toured with rush back in the early 90's. They also did the theme song for the TV show. "South Park"
You guys were so freaked out about Wynona's Big Brown Beaver that I thought you'd never get back to it. Les Claypool is truly one of the greatest base players of all time. I admit they are a bit of an acquired taste, but once you get it, you'll love it! Oh, did either of you notice, Les was only wearing Longjohns?
Growing up going to tons of shows in the 90’s I’ve been in countless mosh pits and seen plenty of hard bands but the only time I feared for my safety was when I saw primus in Orlando around 96 at the embassy. It was craziest energy. Fucking amazing! Everything was so heavy, so hard!
Love me some Primus!! So so many great songs to choose for your next 1, sure a ton have been mentioned. Useless fun fact Tim Alexander on the drum drum drums was stolen away from my favorite live act in Tempe,AZ - Major Lingo. they were local to AZ from Jerome stoney lil town near Sedona. never missed a show when they came to play near ASU. good times and Primus live if you get the chance a must
Jordan and Amber, when I saw this reaction coming up - I couldn't wait to see your faces during the song! Primus is soo weird, but soo catchy!! Les Claypool is a master on the bass, such a catchy vibe! I knew it was going to be a classic reaction... Now Jordan, you've got to get back to the B-52"s!! LOL! Try Planet Claire on for size! Many Thanks!!
Awesone Primus! My hometown "El Sob" in the house. Kirk Hammett (fellow class of 80) and Les Claypool (Class of 81) De Anza high. As the song says "El Sob number 1" So are both Kirk and Les in their field.
“The guitar is really funky.” That’s the bass, ma’am.
That Funk is the bass. the guitar is just the high end tones. the bass has all the movement.
The first time i heard them i couldn't believe the bass also did the vocals.
Its hilarious you guys said ".....well....its Primus..". As back in the day this is EXACTLY how everyone described Primus to each other lol.
I love that there are generations of kids waiting to discover Primus..
Primus, and especially the bassist Les Claypool, love writing songs about the shenanigans and problems that happen in small town USA. This is one of those songs, and it's only about a small town racecar driver killing himself drunk driving and an aging firefighter who was forced to retire even though he was still "strong as any man alive"
Bout time.I been wanting you to listen to primus for awhile.
Primus are so much fun! CRAZY!
I LOVE Amber's reaction when it gets heavy. This is a Bay Area band that writes songs based in different cities in the Bay Area. El Sob is El Sobrante and Richmond are two cities in the Bay Area. I didn't understand that until I moved up there, and then when I heard the lyrics back, I was like, "Yep, that's what these places are like." Also, the song is supposed to be what a band sounds like when Sailing the Seas of Cheese, which is the album where this song comes from.
Primus is a national treasure! So crazy!!!
Primus has a deep discography of amazing, fun, quirky, and dark songs all played with an ultra-high level of musicianship. Well worth the deep dive.
Amber's like "what am I watching here?"
The thing about Les Claypool's vocals. He was born in California, but he took the vocal style from a band he loved, which also happens to be my favorite band: the Residents. They're an avant-garde experimental rock band that's currently celebrating their official 50th anniversary. The band itself was based in San Francisco, but the members were from Louisiana. When I first heard Primus I thought it was the lead singer of the Residents (the band, except for a few members, is anonymous). A lot of what Primus does, like the costumes in "Winona's Big Brown Beaver", is a homage to them, right down to wearing a "Classic Eyeball" shirt during their appearance in "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey".
Don't know if the Residents would be something you'd necessarily like, but I would suggest "Constantinople" (audio only - not the video) or "Hello Skinny" (definitely with the official video) to start off with. Primus has actually done covers of both of those songs.
Primus is genius. Sometimes Demonic, with their use of discordant sound structures playing off of each other, yet still so harmonized.
Jerry was a race car driver, 22 yo, one too many cold beers one night-wrapped him self around a telephone pole-GO🤘🖖✌️🎸🥁🎤🎸🤯
All right my babies.... I think this band is the epitome of extreme alternative. Most definitely one of my "crowd surfing" favorites. I agree that their song titles are like all about far out 💯😎👍🏼
Primus. You know exactly what you're getting into, but you are never ready for it.
"My Name Is Mud" is an awesome Primus hit
Haha your reaction is priceless!
Les Claypole is a genius. Jeez, he can twang that bass !
