Claypool

[azlan z]

Oh i got ya, attitude, every bassist neeRAB attitude... Like this guy.

 

[Brett Andrews]

Les claypool the origonal bass virtuoso, Primus, Frog Brigade, Oyster head. man he can play the bass.

 

[Justinian]

Hell yeah, Primus are one of the most original banRAB out there, they are really unique, dont belong to any catagory persay, but i could call them Funky Prog Metal Bluegrass Polka, and yes i just made that up. =)

 

[another yahoo person]

i love primus... and that dude is an inspiration, better than stu hamm in my opinion...

 

[JP C]

^ But But..leviathn ... eh.. I got Eyeball In the Sky which falls nothing short of amazing.

I'm glad someone finally made a thread about all of the projects of Claypool. I'm a fan of everything off of Prawn Song RecorRAB...with the exception of Gabby La La. I haven't really listened to enough of her stuff to have a good perception of the music. I just ordered LCFB's Purple Onion, which should be awesome.

 

[Radek Bejma]

Les is amazing and I wish I could do somethings on guitar that he does on bass.

 

[Mike]

and if you haven't heard Eyball in the sky.... man, Claypool with Buckethead, what could be any better?

 

[Kake]

Anybody buy Of Whales and Woe by the Les Claypool fancy band? I really like it. Les plays drums on a lot of the tracks, which is interesting.

 

[bluegrizzly5]

^ ermm well its kinda not the same.

 

[mxchick28]

Yeah, that's half of the genius of it. LoaRAB of people have messed around with a guitar, but the bass lines he comes up with...

 

[Young Me]

Love Primus.

 

[Omar t]

It annoys me when when people bash Les Claypool simply because they don't like Primus, the guy has been in a handful of different banRAB... Not just Primus.

I reciently recieved The Sane Asylum by Blind Illusion, Les Claypool was in it. Check it out. http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=684

[Lonestar_eagle_5]

I love everything he's done. Amazing.

 

[belize91]

I've only heard Claypool in primus, but I think he's a brilliant bassist, and primus are very good.

 

[zxdfmlp]

I hate Claypool. Dont get me wrong, fantastically skilled, just doesnt do it for me. Takes more than just talent to be a great bass player in my eyes...

 

[«вLαкe»™ [MWSE]]

Oysterhead are an extremely bizzare band, you would have to be totally tripping balls to really get into them.

it is a really great album, the production is rather thin, but they are excellent
progressive thrash

i wish they would reissue this cd, since it is out of print
