In their day, Primus created their own musical universe, and anyone removed from the lauded trio could only stand back and observe in awe. Les Claypool's quirky vocals and weirdly innovative bass heroism met Larry LaLonde's unsettling guitar antics, only to be perfectly complimented by the slamming grooves of drummer Tim "Herb" Alexander (and, later, Brian "Brain" Mantia). THEY CAN'T ALL BE ZINGERS highlights tracks from the group's studio output, including their 2003 reunion EP. To describe these 16 gems as a greatest-hits set would be a misnomer, as Primus never relied on the hit-driven ethos of the music industry to make their artistic statement.
