Summary: with out a doubt, primus' BEST EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: when a band comes out with a new album after a long break, there's usualy skepticism, especially by how much les claypool has grown and expanded. but this album does the opposite!!! it's actually very primus sounding, like in the good old days of the seas of cheese and pork soda. hearing them again will make people realize that primus isn't just about claypool and his bass molesting. without the other members, it could sound like sausage or oysterhead or the frog bragaide.

pilchers squad: a great classic sounding little ditty. sounds like a lost track from the seas of cheese. it's also based on true event's. where does Les find out about these things anyway? 5/5.

mary the ice cube: you can't help but wonder if Les was high when writing this song, or mabey really desperate to come up with one. problably both. I don't think any song can get wierder than this one song 5/5.

rapscallion: a mixture of pilchers squad and TCATDB. THE greatist way to end a song period. 5/5.

my friend fats: kind of slow moving, but still pretty good. the lyrics are funny too. 4/5.

I've saved the best for last...

the carpenter and the dainty bride: THE BEST PRIMUS SONG EVER!!!
the whole package is worth buying just for this song. it sounds a lot like TOOL in a way (another favorite of mine). the reason is not just because the song is long (so is rapscalion and my friend fats) but also it does what every other piece of music (TOOL were the first do this mind you) out there fails to do: it makes the song a journey. like a movie. an expiriance. the intro and the ending are absolutely mindblowing and breath-taking. the bass sounds like a trumpet!!!! it's everything you would ever want from primus with new additions like Les' new "flicking" technique (also heard in rapscallion) and it's long time. 10/5.

this album is a lot like thier old stuff, but is also VERY VERY sophisticated at the same time. the best album ever.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: You heard it before, I'll say it again" PRIMUS SUCKS!!"

Review: Wow. This is some serious ... Primus.
I love it.
At first I wasnt to sure what to think when i heard these songs, but now I cant stop listening to it.
They were also VERY generous w/ all the extras on the DVD.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Dont wast your money
Review: Yes I love primus, No I did not enjoy this CD. Infact The CD was primu's WORST CD. Infact any diehard primus fan who calls this thier best CD is a idot(what happened to the oldschool primus?like frizzly fry or seas of cheese)But otherwise the dvd was GOOD, yes it was very good. It was just overloaded with videos, live stuff,ect, but after you watch it all once you wont watch it agian, its get boaring the second time around, then ever worst the 3rd and so one. This cd/dvd is more for die hard primus fan...stick to fizzly fry!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: *covers eyes*
Review: Yes, this DVD is loaded with tons of stuff. It even has the "Cheesy Home Video" from way back when on it. But the video for "Mr. Krinkle" is the most disturbing thing I've ever seen in my life. I just bought this DVD/CD combo a few hours ago, and won't watch it again until I recover from seeing that video now.

Aside from that scary, horrible thing, be grateful that we're getting all their videos and tons of bonus stuff here. There's bootlegs of many songs, concert performances (including Woodstock 1994), photos, a discography, and three (as far as I know) easter eggs. Go to The Attic on the menu. Once you've selected it, press 1, 5, and/or 9 on your remote (or 01, 05, 09 if it doesn't work). You'll see the band on stage, as Les announces that he's the only member left, as the other 2 are moving on. It's actually pretty sad. Les hesitates a bit when announcing it. The other is a clip of BucketHead- the best guitarist to ever live. It's from the webcast sometime in 1998.

The CD thrown in with this is ok. It's not as bad as Antipop, but it's close. Like a reviewer here said before- Les can't really do Primus-type tracks anymore. He's been too involved with Oysterhead, Flying Frog Brigade, and Bucket of Brains. Oh well, I'm glad we finally get something like this. Now it's time to wait for the BucketHead DVD coming this December (hopefully).
