On the surface, all Primus albums seem to sound alike,
especially to outsiders (read: anyone who either
respects the group but doesn't get them, or the
minority that actively hates them, particularly Les
Claypool's demented comedy schtick). That's not really
true, even if the same basic elements remain in place
each time, no matter who is in the band. And Primus has
never tried to shake things up as much as they do on
their seventh album, AntiPop. Primus enlisted a
Waits, James Hetfield, Tom Morello, Jim Martin, Matt
purpose of challenging themselves to find different
dimensions to its music. Some play or sing, some
produce, but it's amazing how much each individual
guest changes the tone of the music. It's not always
for the best, but it keeps things fresh, if not
necessarily coherent. Though there are a couple of good
lyrics here, this is by and large an album about music;
it would have been even better if it had been primarily
an instrumental album, actually, since the vocals get
in the way occasionally. By now, the popping bass,
dissonance, and angular riffs don't seem like schtick,
but the lyrics and singing do. Still, it's possible to
get past those and hear AntiPop as one of Primus' most
ambitious and best efforts. No, they're not always
successful, but no two songs sound the same, and some
collaborations are among the best things Primus has
ever recorded. AntiPop is dense music that isn't afraid
to your particular taste, it's hard not to respect
this.
