3 out of 5 stars Les is more   September 20, 2008
3 1/2

Cool alternative to their studio debut, this nine song live set highlighted the band's eccentric appeal and notable chemistry (LaLonde and Alexander being one of the few guitar and drum sections able to compliment Claypool's one of a kind technique), apparently only two months into it's current incarnation nonetheless.



5 out of 5 stars The Best Primus Album   July 16, 2006
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Energy. What a great vibe. The audience on this live album is having a time of their lives. The chemistry is just as good as it gets on this record. One reviewer called this a "challenging" listen. To find it "challenging" would mean to ignore the feeling - to ignore the feeling is to cease living. This album is so charged they'll just come and get you, you don't have to do a thing.


3 out of 5 stars A curio for the fans of this bass heavy band   March 16, 2006
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

Primus seems to split so many opinions.

My own is that this is a weird recording by a bunch of guys who are seriously into what they are doing. How many other bands could put out stuff like John the Fisherman and Groundhog Day. This is great stuff in terms of being challenging listening, it certainly won't ever make an appearance on an easy listening station!

Bass heavy as you would expect - though the drums are also prominent and the production is fine, no problems with the fact that this is a live offering. All Primus fans should buy this, the reason I give it only three stars is that it is hard for the newcomer to get into. Perhaps one of the studio albums would be a better intro to this interesting band. Otherwise you may feel like you've wandered into a party where everyone is talking a different language to you!

Certainly different.



3 out of 5 stars only primus album I like, I openly admit i'm NOT a primus fan   September 29, 2005
 2 out of 6 found this review helpful

I'm not a primus fan obviously, or at least a "true" fan by any means. But, I do have a liking for this album. John the Fisherman is my favorite Song on this, and I only like the live version of it on this album. Didn't like it on the other album, frizzle fry I think it was, could be wrong. Vocals are so funny, the minute I turn on the album, I can't but laugh at claypool's vocals. They CAN'T be taken seriously, this band has a big joking manner. But a serious note about the band is the bass playing of Claypool which most people know him by. I give the other members credit too of course, they play good music. Overall, 3 stars for me. Not a primus fanatic.


5 out of 5 stars Sucking the life out of you.   December 12, 2004

I could give a f*ck about faith no more...I could give a f*ck about the red hott chille pu*sies but i do give a f*ck about primus because i've always supported these psychos. Let's just say if you like heavy bass and music that sounds like it was made from people that left an asylum place ? Then be my quest and buy primus's "Suck on this" or any other album from primus specialy their early ones. Nutcase music best discribes their music. Highly recommended.
