Primusis a rock band band formed in California in the mid-1980s by two ex-members of thrash band Blind Illusion by Les Claypooland Larry LaLonde. Larry's band before Blind Illusion was death metal pioneers Possessed. Les (vocals and bass guitar) has been the only constant member. They have had two guitar players (although Larry has held onto the role for the past 16 years) and many different drummers (although Tim Alexander and Bryan "Brain" Mantia were the only ones who recorded with the band, and Jay Lane, the only other one who had creative impact) in the past. Their music has proven difficult to define; while usually considered by critics to be funk-metalor alternative metal, Primus has been called everything from " thrash funk" (as the band blends funk-style bass technique with thrash influenced guitar riffs and songs tempos), to " alternative rock" to "the Freak Brothers set to music." Les Claypool himself once described their music as " psychedelic polka." Thanks to the diversity of their sound they have been able to gain fans from nearly all rock subgenres.
