The problem most people have today is only listening to mainstream/radio when there are thousands of great talents out there just waiting to be discovered on the internet. They are just too lazy to seek them out and prefer other people telling them how to think and feel about music instead of thinking for themselves. I guess the pressure is on to not be that "weird dude" who has some odd playlist on their phone. Kids these days tend to flock to the Chosen Ones on TV based on some washed up musical "authority" opinion of what's good and bad, and tbh most of it sounds like total dogshit to me. Why don't they let people call in and vote for what they like instead of having 4 judges decide. Rotation is rigged from top to bottom.

We had stayed downstairs and lit a joint and afterwards, watched TV, in which this freak video came on. I was just staring at it with my mouth agape. I never forgot that moment in time. I must've been about 19 or so. I'm 48 now. It still takes me back!

I was lucky enough to record this to VHS in the MTV days. Wore the hell out of that tape. My first and favorite Primus song. And the video is just brilliantly creative and fun. I never get tired of it.

This is real art. Acting, costumes, colors, not some CGI crap. No editing needed just pure Primus creativity. Nothing better. Genuine man made effects not computers.

Let’s not forget primus made the theme song for South Park.
