    dude i was like you, but you have to see these guys for yourself. i didnt care much for jazz, until my uncle took me to this jazz bar, and i instantly became a jazz fan. theyre incredibly techinical and can sometimes be really heavy. no joke! most people think that double bass drums were thought up by metal but jazz drummers have been using them scince the 30s.... blah blah blah, you get the idea

    I'm a huge metal fan and think that jazz musicians really kick ass... I was listening to an interview with slayer's drummer Dave Lombardo, who left the band during a 2 or 3 album period.. During that time, he said he had been playing with a jazz band to keep up with his drumming.. I don't know if you ever heard the drums in a slayer song, but it sure goes fast... Anyway, I also think that jazz musicians are amazing. I think that whgat makes jazz such a good type of music is that it's all improvisation (well 95% of it..) and it sounds good in the end !

    i dig primus, but antipop is horrible. give me suck on this, seas of cheese, frizzle fry, punchbowl, but no antipop please.

    i saw frog brigade the first year they toured. they did a 13 minute cover of 'tomorrow never knows' by the beatles.......totally insane. i wish les would do more in the jam band scene. frog brigade and oysterhead both had some pretty great music.

    another cd i have with les is "highball with the devil", by les claypool and the holy mackerel. pretty good stuff, i tells ya.

    i think the only thing les did that i just couldn't get into at all was sausage. don't know why, just didn't float my boat.

    they are/were amazing talents but listening to their stuff was just a bit too much like living inside a dr. zeus book whilst on huge doses of acid with no senses other than your hearing.

    their albums should carry labels something to the effect of "warning. more than 2 songs at a time may cause brain damage"

    For Primus, I would recommend:

    Frizzle Fry
    Sailing the Seas of Cheese
    and
    Pork Soda

    get 'suck on this'. their first album, and it's live.

    'shake hands with beef' is a good tune.

    Primus have always been one of fav bands. I like Tales From The Punchbowl the best it has something about it that i like....
    I also recommend the song "Hamburger Train" off Pork Soda, the bass in that song is mad.
    I wonder if/when they're going to put out a greatest hits, that would be really cool.

    Two points worth mentioning:

    1) "Dog Will Hunt"
    2) "The Bastard tried to bite me...."

    They're quite good. You have to see them live to appreciate them.

    But how can you say they are so bad? Have you heard them covering all of PF's "Animals" on disc? It's amazing how well they nail it!

    Primus kicks ass but i prefer les's side projects better. They arent as heavy. I saw him with the fancy band this year in chicago and it was crazy. The drums > whamola > drums was awesome in its own right but was made even better when Tim Alexander and Larry LaLonde came out to join the band.

    and Skerik is a bad ass.
