Les Claypool (Bass/Vocals) along with Tim “Herb” Alexander (Drums) and Larry Lalonde (Guitar) form the rock trio group Primus. Pork Soda released in 1993 with songs like “My name is Mud” showcase a very unique style of lyrical and technical prowess. The distinctive sound of Primus is heard through the popping bass guitar of frontman Claypool along with his quirky yet perfectly matched voice given the texture of the overall sound.
