Primus & the Chocolate Factory (with the Fungi Ensemble)

[essines]

I have to add that the way his playing went from so frantic to so simple but without losing his signature complexity is best personified through this tune

^That song's one of the first I taught myself to play on bass, it's trickier than it sounds, especially the chorus riff

[Zephyr_Nova]

I can't do that three fingered left hand stuff for shit.... hence why I use a pick when I play bass.

[delet...]

I need to get get my brother's bass set up. Playing bass was fun. Slap bass or fingerstyle that is.

One of the rare bands where every member completely masters his instrument(s).

 

I disliked their Pure Imagination jam at first cause I kept comparing it to the original, but it's growing on me rather quickly

maybe that's my hangup about it, I keep comparing it to the original (which I always did kinda like) I should give it another listen just letting Primus be thier own beast.

After seeing Primus perform Frizzle Fry, (especially spaghetti western), in it's entirety with the original line-up in 2003ish, there's been no need to see them again. ever. shit was bananas & that's how I'm gonna remember them.

Whoa, Danny Carey's sitting in with them for a few dates while Tim recovers from open heart surgery: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/tools-danny-carey-to-play-with-primus-in-september-20140814

 

If essines were at one of those dates his penis would explode everywhere.
