“Primus sucks” is a long-running “inside joke” with the fans. Claypool used to open their shows with an intro like “This is Primus and we suck!”
Ah, gotcha. I'm not a true fan, I just like the music.
It's the same thing as saying Green Jelly Sucks!
If you happened to listen to them back in the day.
I have a Green Jello cassette tape in storage. I wasn't a huge fan, but I figured they wouldn't be able to keep that name for too long. Three Little Pigs is a good jam tho.
I think when they had that hit is when they had to change the name. My older brother had the Jello tape too. We used to watch the Three Little Pigs video on a tiny black and white portable TV lol.
And then we'd play Rad Racer on that TV. Craziness.
