Musically they do very little for me, but their videos are hilarious.
I totally love this one:

 It takes real proficiency to play music in those plastic cowboy outfits!

I didn't even realise Primus had hits  ;D
South Park is their hit  :biggrin:

I remember finding out that was Primus and it blew my mind, but then it made a lot of sense as well.

Glad to see lots of love for Primus! Almost didn't expect that because I've encountered dismissal of them in the past due to vocals and being too weird/different. Personally I think their unique style and crazy tones and sound effects is exactly what's appealing about them.

Would John the Fisherman count as a 'hit' for them? That was the first song I heard.

I have never been able to get into Primus  :-\

with that said I can't comment on who is more proficient, persay... I don't have enough knowledge of Primus to make an informed judgment.

I think Tommy the Cat and Shake Hands With Beef were the two videos I remember the most.
Everyone else, except Wolfking is wrong.

Jerry Was a Racecar Driver is awesome.  As is most of the rest of their stuff.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

They're not a band you can sit down and listen to multiple albums but I saw them on the "Sailing The Seas Of Cheese" tour as well as " Tales from the Punchbowl".  They were amazing live.
