I can hear how the band was still evolving & improving at this time, on their way to greater heights. There are still some excellent songs here, and the famous radio hits deserve their fame.

Primus is overrated group. Their music almost didn't interest me at all.

베이스를 연주하는 사람이라면 한 번쯤 들어봤을 밴드 Primus의 2집. Les Claypool의 Metallica 오디션 불합격 이야기는 음악가들 사이에서 너무나도 유명한 이야기. James Hetfield가 말했 듯 Les Claypool만의 음악이 고스란히 담겨있다. Jerry Was a Race Car Driver와 Tommy the Cat은 필청트랙!

Primus just get too careless on this one. It's not even funny to me, it's just boring.

Cant pick a favorite song from this album. 9.5/10 would recommend.

druhé album pokračuje v smere debutu, čiže štýlovo Alternative/Funk/Experimental Rock s občasnými prvkami Metal -u. V hudbe pokračujú vo všetkých pre mňa kladných aj záporných prvkoch, ktoré som popísal už pri debute, čiže nebudem sa rozpisovať, len stručne - celkom zaujímavá hudba, ale nie moc podarený štýl, tón a farba spevu.
