Summary: BEST DVD THERE EVER WAS, AND EVER WILL BE: affirmative.
Review: This DVD grabbed my heart out of my chest, still beating, poured a pleasure-liquid, honey-esque in consistency, all over it until it dripped with the latter instead of blood, gave it a good pat on the head, and rammed it gently back into my chest. I haven't been the same ever since.

Jam-packed with every Primus music video, delicious live footage, Cheesy Home Video, and everything your heart could possibly desire. Believe you me.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Primus is back
Review: This E.P/DVD is awesome. Any Primus fan will love it. I was'nt a very big fan of Primus until recently and this release has just fueled my love for them even more. The E.P. features 5 all new songs which kick arse. The DVD has all of Primus's music videos, commentary on some videos, behind the scenes footage, and live videos! The whole thing rocks. Buy it now

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great DVD, Good CD
Review: This is a great deal, with a full DVD and a short CD worth of material. The DVD is great just for the music videos, but the extra footage is entertaining as hell. I believe this is one of the best music DVDs I own. The new material on the CD is somewhat different, but it's definetely Primus. This is a deal and a half for price.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Primus Sucks!
Review: This is one of the greatest music DVDs I have ever come across. The videos are great; Les is a master with claymation. Anyone who hated how underapreciated, underplayed, and over cencored the videos were on MTV or MTV2, will love this.

Another great part of this DVD is the bootleg videos of Primus's humble beginnings, and the antics of one drunken stage diver trying to sing along to Groundhog's Day.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Primus Are Awesome
Review: This is what I have been waiting for forever. A Primus DVD with everything a Les Claypool-worshipping Primus head would want. The best thing about this DVD is it's rare footage of the band's live performances.

I also love the complete selection of Primus videos on this DVD. Not only does it feature their famous videos, but it also features rarely seen videos of the Anti-Pop album.

I suggest this for any fan of modern progressive metal.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Primus Should Not Try To Act Like Frog Brigade
Review: This product receives a three star rating because of the dvd. The dvd is fantastic. You get all of Primus' videos, a few great live performances, and a few other rare gems. The videos are great. I think Primus had some of the best music videos of all time. Just check out Southbound Pachyderm. The live footage is sort of half and half. There are a few songs that bear terrible quality, but at least you will be forewarned by the "Bootleg Quality" rating. At least they admit it. Anyways, if this release only consisted of the dvd I would have given it 5 stars, no doubt about that.

They had to include a bonus EP as well. I'm probably one of the first people to finally admit that this is not a Primus cd. Sure, it bears the Primus name and uses members of the band, but it's still not Primus. I think Les, Ler, and Tim all lost their capabilty of thinking on the Primus spectrum, this Ep is the evidence. Try and compare this cd to any previous Primus release. It doesn't compare, not even to their previous Antipop album. Sure you get a lot of cool sounds, but none of those catchy riffs Primus has been so good at. This cd is filled with the same stuff Les has been dishing out for the past 3 years or so with his Frog Brigade project. I understand that bands sometimes change musically and take different approaches to their music, I mean, compare Frizzle Fry to The Brown album, that's proof enough, but I have a word that can explain Primus' new direction for all of you, lost. Les has been so caught up in all of his other projects that he is now no longer capable of producing an actual Primus release. Now, as a fan of both Primus, and Les' solo projects as well, I'm not saying that the music contained on this cd is, by any means, bad. I am a fan of Les' other projects, especially Oysterhead, but I don't think that this cd is worthy of bearing the Primus name. Hopefully, one day, they'll be able to get it together.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's Primus
Review: This review is for the CD only. It's Primus, you get what you get. It's good to hear Tim back, not that Brain wasn't good, which he was, but Tim was the bomb. I'm sure the DVD is wonderful. It's their creative videos and some live material how could you go wrong. If your a primus fan buy it, if your new to Primus pick up something else.

Review: This whole album makes me sick... honestly.

Let me begin by saying i love Primus, i think they are one of the most inventive and extroadinary bands out there. The bass work on songs like Tommy The Cat, Jerry Was A Racecar Driver, and Hamburger Train is simply unmatched by any other bassist i've heard. Les is a genius, we all know that by now. Ler is just as much as a genius, he is underrated and underestimated. He really and truly is one the greatest guitarist out there. Tim is back, made me happy when i heard the news, not when i heard the album. So much more could come from Tim, but it hasnt happened yet. Brain is much more technical, i love Brain, especially on Buckethead songs, Tim is much more experimental, and he was amazing until he left the band. Since his return i haven't been amazed.

The Carpenter: Horrible from start to finish, so annoying it pains me to think of it. - 1/10

Pilchers Sqaud: This song contains one of the most annoying riffs i've ever heard in my life. Worst than the riff are the lyrics and the way they are song. Makes me sick, honestly i can't listen to the song all the way through, even though i forced myself to the first time i heard it. I honestly felt that Primus had come close to ruining their career with this song and album. - 0/10

Mary The Ice Cube: Good god!!! What happened to the Primus that played My Name Is Mud, and Sgt. Baker, and Shake Hands With Beef. STOP MESSIN' around guys it isnt funny. - 0/10

Rapscallion: HORRIBLE! - 1/10

My Friend Fats: Second worse behind Pilcher's Squad. - 0/10
