Hallucino-Genetics DVD


Primus has released its first concert DVD, Hallucino-Genetics.

Recorded June 26 at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom, this live set captures the recently reunited trio’s final US summer date. Like each show on this leg of Primus’ 2004 tour, Hallucino-Genetics features a complete reading of the group’s Frizzle Fry album. Other highlights include “Jerry Was A Race Car Driver” and “My Name is Mud."

This DVD is formatted for all regions (NTSC).

Personally, when I listen to Primus I hear a huge Zappa and Crimson influence. If that's not prog enough, then I don't know what is.

But I really don't care if they're in the archives or not...either way, it won't change how much I like the band.

Now now Jester, we can't be selfish, keeping all the best musicians for ourselves.

Claypool may be a phenomonal bassist, but that is no reason to class his band as prog.

I love Primus and there is a strong case to say they are prog but I'm not sure any member of the band would say they are though.

They supported Rush on the Roll The Bones tour I think.

Does anyone have their number so that we can ask them?

If so, then Primus also belong in the archives.

No.

Definately No.

I can't even believe you are comparing beefheart with Primus. Primus does nothing more than take one complex bassline, putting a weird guitar on that and quite basic drums and REPEAT THAT SAME PART the WHOLE song.

Beefheart does NOT do that, his songs involve EVOLUTION. Zappa is on a whole other level and shouldn't even be compared with Primus.

Seriously, I do not understand why some of you compare stuff that is not comparable.
Epic.

Reminds me of Peter Gabriel, but I guess he´s not prog either.

Primus belongs here! They're more prog than Styx and they managed to get on here.

I agree! Primus sounds nothing like bands such as Hawkwind, Magma, Flower Kings and Marillion- all of whom are so similar.

I was going to get that for christmas, it was only 16 bucks, but when i went back to get it, it was gone.

But however, My Drummer is on the back of the dvd in the crowd, he's the guy in the top leftish side with his mouth open like he is screaming from the crowd.


Anyway, PRIMUS SHOULD BE IN!!!!


WHERE'S MANNI!!!?!?!?!?!?

MANNI!!!!!!!! GET PRIMUS IN THE ARCHIVES BRUTHA!!!!!!
