Summary
Primus sucks.…or do they? 😏 If you know, you know. And if you don’t know, this episode is about to bring you fully into the weird, wonderful world of Primus. In this episode of Waterproof Records, I dive deep into Sailing the Seas of Cheese — the 1991 album that introduced a generation to Les Claypool’s alien-level bass playing, bizarre humor, nautical nonsense, and one of the most misunderstood inside jokes in alternative music history. Primus isn’t for everyone — and that’s exactly the point. Whether you grew up with this record or you’re hearing about it for the first time, this episode is a celebration of creativity, risk-taking, and embracing the strange.
