Primus, the eccentric and innovative band known for their unique blend of funk, metal, and experimental rock, has once again surprised their fans with a special release. In celebration of Record Store Day 2020, the band has released a limited edition 3D cover of their iconic live album, "Suck On This."

For those unfamiliar with Primus, the band was formed in 1984 in El Sobrante, California. Consisting of Les Claypool on vocals and bass, Larry LaLonde on guitar, and Tim Alexander on drums, Primus quickly gained a cult following with their quirky lyrics, unconventional song structures, and virtuosic musicianship.

"Suck On This" was originally released in 1989 as a cassette-only album, recorded live at the Berkeley Square in Berkeley, California. It was the band's first official release and captured the raw energy and chaotic nature of their live performances. Fans were immediately drawn to the album, and it became a must-have for any Primus fan.

Now, over 30 years later, "Suck On This" has been given a new life with a special 3D cover for Record Store Day 2020. The cover, designed by longtime Primus collaborator and artist, Zoltron, features a 3D lenticular image of the band's iconic "Suck On This" logo. The design is a nod to the band's love for all things weird and trippy, and it perfectly captures the essence of Primus.

But the 3D cover is not the only thing that makes this release special. The album has also been remastered from the original analog tapes, giving fans a chance to hear the songs in a whole new light. The sound quality is crisp and clear, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in the chaotic and intricate instrumentation that Primus is known for.

The album itself is a journey through Primus' early years, featuring songs from their first two studio albums, "Frizzle Fry" and "Sailing the Seas of Cheese." From the funky bass lines of "John the Fisherman" to the heavy riffs of "Harold of the Rocks," "Suck On This" showcases the band's versatility and their ability to seamlessly blend different genres into their own unique sound.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Tommy the Cat," a fan favorite that features Les Claypool's signature slap bass technique and his distinctive vocals, which range from a deep growl to a high-pitched screech. The live version of this song is a true testament to the band's musicianship, with each member showcasing their skills and improvising in their own unique way.

Another highlight of the album is the 12-minute epic, "The Heckler," which features an extended jam session and showcases the band's ability to push the boundaries of their music. The song is a perfect representation of Primus' live performances, where they often take their songs to new and unexpected places.

Overall, "Suck On This" is a must-have for any Primus fan or anyone looking to experience the band's early years in all its chaotic and experimental glory. The 3D cover adds a fun and quirky element to the already impressive album, making it a collector's item for any vinyl enthusiast.

In a time where live music has been put on hold, "Suck On This" serves as a reminder of Primus' incredible live performances and their ability to captivate audiences with their unique sound and stage presence. So, if you're a fan of Primus or just looking for something new and exciting to add to your music collection, be sure to grab a copy of "Suck On This" with its limited edition 3D cover before it's gone.
