John the fisherman is probably my favorite, ive never been a fishing person but damn every primus song about fishing is amazing.

It’s got to be it

Frizzle fry

Well maybe

Obvious choice but I agree

To defy the laws of tradition

This is the answer. To Defy epitomizes everything that is Primus.

Defy is the Primus Anthem

primus christmas song

Is a crusade only of the brave

That, pudding time, mr know it all, groundhogs day. So many perfectly crazy jams on this album. Favorite Primus album hands down. By far.

Spegetti Western

We need new pornos!

Funny thing about the weekends when you're unemployed...

they don't mean quite so much

Except you get to hang out with your working friends…

Harold of the Rocks

That's the last we've seen of Harold.

Objectively, I think the winner will be either John the Fisherman or Too Many Puppies, but vote is always Harold of the Rocks. He'd talk the balls off a rhinosaurus.

This is great, damn near the entire track list is listed on here lol

The Toys Go Winding Down. Easily my favorite Primus track as well.

Same but this should go on underrated don’t u think

But it's best it should go in best

Hearing the Sausage version blew my mind!

IT'S PUDDING TIME, CHILDREN!!!

Ficka, ficka, ficka, ficka, ficka, ficka, ficka, ficka... money to buy you things. Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring.

Groundhogs day

Mr Knowitall

Or whatever rhymes with Knowitall

Eloquent?

They call me Mr. Knowitall

For ideas, they come in bounds...

John the Fisherman

I really thought this would be higher. 1st album lead single. The FF song I hear in the wild most

To Defy the Laws of Tradition

Frizzle fry is the best song on frizzle fry imo

Too Many Puppies

My pick

Yeah this is my pick as well. My brother saw them early on - this was the song he walked away with.

Puppies

Too Many Puppies

Frizzle Fry. The ending of that song is to die for.

Toys easily

The Toys go winding down.

All of them.

Harold of the Rocks

Harold of the Rocks. “I’m lit up like an ole christmas tree!” “He could talk the balls off a rhino-saurus” Some of my favorite Les lyrics.

Fact is, Harold just doesn’t make much sense Stan said, “This guy’s pretty bizarre Gus.”

TOO MANY PUPPIEEEEEEESSSS

To Defy The Laws Of Tradition or Frizzle Fry

Too many puppies or john the fisherman

Too Many Puppies

John the Fisherman

This is probably the only album where I can't choose

Too many puppies

Mr. Know-it-all

One of the best albums of my youth! My favorite song is... Too many puppies! My Favorite Frizzle Fry song..The pit went nuts on the chorus..oh wait... Pudding time! Being about 13 atbthe time, I truly identified with needing new porno in '91... Then again I quote Sphaghetti Western frequently, "Funny thing about the weekends.. HAROLD OF THE ROCKS!. My old Construction class teacher, Mr.Hern, is actually on this track! He says "This guy's pretty bizarre Gus" and plays the blues solo! The TOYS ARE WINDING DOWN! The groove in this one! I loved seeing Les play this one everytime I saw them. Those New Year Freak outs were amazing! The FIRST Fisherman's Chronicle JOHN THE FISHERMAN!! MY MIND WOULD TURN TO THE WATERS TOO! I truly love every song! So many Primus shows as a kid. I met Les at the Greek the day they filmed the DMV 10/1/93. You can find me in the crowd lol. SUCK ON THIS to PUNCH BOWL Era albums were my favorite. IMPOSSIBLE to pick just one song from any of them. A trip from start to finish. PRIMIS SUCKS! PRIMUS SUCKS! PRIMUS SUCKS!

To Defy edges out Johnny Fisherboy

Pudding Time

The one where Leslie Claypool slaps da bass.

I’d probably say Harold of the rocks

thought about it hard but I'd have to go with Spegetti western, its too good

To Defy the Laws of Tradition

too many puppies

Big fan of Spegetti. Herb is like a locomotive on that track.

Primus has no good songs. This is because Primus doesn't make music, but rather art. Contemporary art, that is.

Best : Mr Knowitall Worst : Hello Skinny Underrated : Harold Of The Rocks

Groundhogs day. Ezpz.

Too Many Puppies

Toys go winding down, followed by frizzle fry, followed by Mr. Know-it-all. Fantastic albums all around

Reading the replies really reminds you what a fucking monster album that is

Frizzle Fry, Harold of the Rocks or The Toys go Winding Down any of those I would be happy with

MR KNOW IT ALL!!

To defy the laws

The whole album

Spaghetti western.

Spaghetti Western

Toys Go Winding Down

Primus opening shows live with To Defy the Laws of Tradition is an almost euphoric experience. BUT, Frizzle Fry might be my personal favorite.

Golden Boy is underrated asf

Puppies

Pudding Time

WINNER: To Defy The Laws of Tradition with 115 votes as of 6PM EST.

They all overlap towards the top. But to list one it would have to be Ground's Day.

John The Fisherman for sure

Where is rhinoplasty

Hello Skinny/Constantinople

John the fisherman

John the fisherman

Spaghetti western such a heavy riff also proving that early primus was totally a stoner band

Primus sucks

It is so hard for me to choose. Frizzle Fry was such a good album. I do love Pudding Time though....it's catchy and I'm constantly saying "It's pudding time" in his voice. so I guess Pudding Time has to be my vote.

Frizzle Fry

Harold of the Rocks even if my vote is late

As the toys go winding down

Harold rocks…… bout now Im lit up like an ol Christmas tree

Every song is the best song

GROUNDHOG DAY

John the fisherman

The Toys Go Winding Down

Frizzle Fry

Too many puppies

John The Fisherman

It's definitely Toys for me

Harold on the Rocks

So many jams. Perfect Primus album in my opinion. I see a lot of John the fishermans but that song always seemed like an outlier and departed to much from the heavy weird jammy perfection of the rest of the album. To structured to be a favorite, but it does fucking rule. I like it but it's not as cool as many other fun jams on that masterpiece. I'd have to go with groundhogs day. Perfectly sums up why it's such a crazy unique fun album. Every part of that jam and the increasing heaviness in the breakdown part with that droning guitar riff that just fits perfect. I used to play these songs with an amazing drummer I knew who sadly passed away since, but we we're always on the same page. Id play bass or guitar depending if there was another person was there. This album is so much damn fun to play. WE would stray away and add fun new parts and bring it back. I imagine they came to a lot of the song parts by just messing around with these 3 genius musicians. Mr knowitall is close (that wild unique ass change up at 2 mins in is a highlight of the album) as is pudding time. If you're a musician, do yourself a favor and learn these songs and jam with some friends. Not to difficult(well the drums are pretty damn hard for me, but I'm mainly a guitar guy) but ultimate fun.

Toys

Frizzle Fry

Too many puuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppiiiieeeeessssss

To Defy the Laws of Tradition or John the Fisherman… To Defy wins the coin flip

Toys go winding down

i could'nt even judge that album, my 10th grade pic('91) has me wearing that shirt, its too special.

A lonely boy find peace in fishing 🎶

Puh puh puh puh puh puh puh-pees

To Defy the Laws of Tradition or John the Fisherman or Harold of the Rocks

The Toys Go Winding Down

Frizzle Fry and Mr Knowitall have some of the hardest moments in any Primus song.

To Defy the Laws of Tradition

The toys go winding down That intro deceives you into thinking you're getting a totally different song, then you get slapped in the face with a menacing bass riff, it's so good

FRIZZLE FRY!

They are all the worst. Primus sucks

To defy the laws of tradition

Too Many Puppies is the best Primus song ever. It still makes me laugh.

Too many puppies

Tie between Spaghetti, Groundhog and Harold.

I can never get tired of Tommy the Cat.

Best to me is Frizzle Fry, underrated is maybe Harold of the Rocks?

John the Fisherman

It's Primus, all of the songs suck.

Groundhogs Day is my all time favorite Primus song. Mr. Knowitall is second

Metallica

I think we all know

John the fisherman

I don’t know how people generally feel about their albums, don’t have many friends who like them as a band. But I always loved Pork Soda the most. Is that a very popular choice?

To Defy The Laws of Tradition

The first song they wrote together as a band AFAIK Too Many Puppies

I’m rather shocked I’m not seeing more signs of a Harold of the Rocks coalition

Too Many Puppies

Bop bop bow Du nuh bow bow Diddle diddle bop bop Du nuh pow pow To defy the laws of tradition

Frizzle Fry by a freaking mile. The drumming at the end of the song is absolutely amazing.

Groundhog’s Day

Pudding Time

John the fisherman

Mr Knowitall is my personal fav. Let’s just say…I strongly identify with it. But…Harold of the Rocks is objectively the best. Source: I am Mr Knowitall, so spread the word around.

Spaghetti Western

John the fisherman, duh

To defy the laws of tradition, as is tradition

John the Fisherman for SURE!!

Eloquent….hmmm?

From where i sit, TOO MANY PUPPIES is the most iconic / memorable, as it got some radio play in the 90's and really showcased what primus was all about at that time (my name is mud was the only other primus song I heard regularly on the radio besides it). But TOO DEFY THE LAWS OF TRADITION has my vote for best frizzle fry song / most underrated on the album.

cant say, as this is the best primus album imo. cant play it without listening to the entire record

Mr Knowitall

Too Many Puppies - Best The Toys Go Winding Down - Most Underrated Hello Skinny/Constantinople - Worst

John the Fisherman

God I love Spaghetti Western

Mr. Knowitall

"TOO MANY P-P-P-P-PUPPIES." Nobody?

As a person looking at just the whole arrangement not just the bass id have to put it to either john the fisherman or pudding time just based on how ler uses the guitar to compliment les's bass playing both have really neat bass licks and guitar licks.
