I will say that there are times where the album seems to be deciding whether or not it's a phish album or a Primus album, instead of something original in it's own right, but when the three find their groove it's amazing.



I also am pretty partial to Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel's Highball With the Devil. I think it takes everything that most have come to know and love about Primus without so much of the cheesy schtick that has gotten in the way of a lot of their music.
