Don’t deny the power of three. Whether it’s certain “anti-relaxers”, a brilliantly executed joke, or the divinely strange shades of psychedelic metal weirdness created by the “power threesome” known as PRIMUS, three packs quite the powerful punch.

PRIMUS have always stayed in the realm of the weird and unorthodox, forging their own unique path by blending surrealistic bass driven prog metal with absurdly weird lyrical vistas and some of the strangest riffs known this side of the multiverse to create a brilliant, yet oddly eccentric, brand of metal that is uniquely theirs and theirs alone.
