Primus are incredibly talented. They just don't play melodic music, it's all a-tonal. I like melody too but Primus is one of my favorite non melodic bands. Listen to To Defy the Laws of Tradition, Southbound Pachyderm, The year of the parrot, and tell me those guys have no talent and suck. Yeah that makes sense, someone who can play LEAD bass, not rhythm, and sing at the same time,. yeah, totally no talent at all. Jeez, like to see you do that

you didn't even listen to what he said. he was talking about how all primus songgs, however talented they may or may not be, statrt off sounding interesting but they just drag them on with lame gtr solos, annoying vocals and the same bass riff all the time. its nothing amazing. also, liek has been said (on the board/everywhere) millions of times, talent does not warrant good music. perfect example: steve vai, etc. and saying someone "don't know what they are talking about" is pretty silly thing to say because he is expressing his opinion on a band. (a well explained and valid opinion at that, he could have said something like "primus sucks" without any explanation.)
also, Primus is really quite "melodic", especially when put up against bands like Wolf Eyes or others like them who essentially have little to no melodic aspects to it.
southbound pachyderm is the only primus song aside from the SP themesong that i can honestly say i like.
