Music reviews of Rhinoplasty
Music Review: Once Again The Mighty Primus Outdo Themselves
Rating: 5 Stars
Primus's Rhinoplasty is more than just a mere album of covers, it is simply amazing. Somehow, the band manages to recreate the trademark sounds of every artist that they cover on the album and still manages to keep some of the trademark Primus sound intact. For starters, the amazing cover of XTC's "Scissorman" would probably make even Andy Partridge (the XTC guy) go, "Hmm, are you sure that's Primus, sounds like us!" Stanley Clarke's amazing instrumental "Silly Putty" (featuring some amazing scratching by DJ Disk) gets perfunctory treatment. Jerry Reed's classic "Amos Moses" is also great, with Larry LaLonde managing to create and exact replica of Jerry's licks, and Les Claypool adding his own vocal spin to it. The Police's "Behind My Camel" is also great, complete with bass chops that sound just like Sting's. Metallica's "The Thing That Should Not Be" is also great. If that wasn't enough, there are three Primus classics, two of them performed live. The remix of "Too Many Puppies" is very danceable. Threre is also a video on the CD accessable through your computer, a claymation video of "The Devil Went Down To Georgia," that is hilarious, and worth the price of admission alone. The thing that really puzzles me about this disc is it is classified as an EP and sold at an EP price, which seems almost criminal considering that most of the current "big" full length albums released today don't even have a hundredth of this much substance.
Description of Rhinoplasty
PRIMUS RHINOPLASTYSouth Park fever has struck, and its victims are turning delirious. Primus, who wrote the intro music for the hit series, named this disc, no doubt, after Tom's Rhinoplasty office in the show. This collection is a particularly demented affair, comprised of six strangely chosen cover tunes, with two live tracks and a remix thrown in for variety. Primus reconstruct the work of XTC, Peter Gabriel, Stanley Clarke, the Police, and even Jerry Reed. The only obvious choice is Metallica's "The Thing That Should Not Be." Primus treat each song with reverence and creativity, imbuing their trademark sound in each cut without straying too far from the original. As Cartman would say, "Kick ass!" --Jon Wiederhorn
