Rhinoplasty

Primus

Nine tracks of rubbery bass-led reinterpretations. A percussive, eccentric collection of covers that turns Metallica and Peter Gabriel into swampy funk-metal.

June 22, 1998 · UMG Recordings, Inc.

A playful yet gritty exploration of musical boundaries through the lens of percussive funk-metal.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition into the percussive slap-bass breakdown of The Awakening during the live version of Tommy the Cat.
The way the heavy Metallica riff of The Thing That Should Not Be is transformed into a murky, underwater funk groove.
The frantic, staccato guitar interplay that mimics the mechanical clicking of scissors on the opening track.
