Churning bullshit into butter

The new Primus EP, Conspiranoid is a triptych on disinformation. Conspiranoia, Follow the Fool, Erin on the Side of Caution. Bass Magazine review. Bonus: Claypool's fundraising collab Zelensky: The Man With the Iron Balls.

I haven't listened to it all yet but it's Primus so I know it'll be... Primus. And got damn I love Primus. I saw them last summer on their Tribute to Kings tour and since I hadn't seen them since the 90s I'd forgotten how good they are live. The stage was a little dark, I'd have liked to be able to see them a bit better, but it was a great show.

I love that they're still going strong after all this time and that Claypool still has his many side projects.

Thanks for this. That last one is pretty catchy…

"Follow the Fool" is an absolute banger.

More Primus is always welcome. Claypool knows those damn blue collar tweekers,

I'm glad to see they are goofy but still pushing back and calling folly for what it is.

(Obligatory) Primus sucks!
