PRATO PRIMUS – primus: over the electric grapevine (Papier)

Usually when the ´alternative rock revolution´ of the early 1990s is discussed, Nirvana's Nevermind is credited as the recording that led the charge. Yet there were several earlier albums that helped pave the way, including the Pixies´ Doolittle, the Red Hot Chili Peppers´ Mother´s Milk, Jane´s Addiction´s Nothing´s Shocking and especially Primus´ 1991 album Sailing the Seas of Cheese. This fascinating and beautifully curated oral history tells the tale of this truly one-of-a-kind band that merged funk, punk, rock and experimental music, with Les Claypool´s distinctive humour.
