For a lot of lifers this is the most Primus Primus record: Wynona's Big Brown Beaver, Southbound Pachyderm, Professor Nutbutter's House of Treats. Story-songs, claymation energy, ridiculous virtuosity that still leaves room for tunes.
If the narratives are why you stayed, jump to The Desaturating Seven or out to Holy Mackerel. If you want the rhythm section to get uglier, Brown Album is the fork.
