Jan 26, 2017What you would expect from Primus covering a classic musical score. Some complain about the repetition of the Oompa Loompa songs, this is similar to the film, and connects the album's songs together as the musical soundtrack. In addition, each one varies slightly, and the lyrics are different. Some may say it is a novelty, I call it a loving tribute to the film.

Nov 12, 2014He and Alexander have also stayed mostly away from the slap-bass and funk drums that made Primus’ early hits so compelling, so don’t expect the usual extravagant workouts. Instead, this album is best viewed as the point where Claypool’s interests in film and music meet at a sort of psychedelic flashpoint.
