Primus DNA - XTC

Primus Tracks

About this episode

We continue our DNA sub-series with a less obvious influence on Les Claypool and Primus: XTC. This English band influenced Les in his formative years, perhaps subconsciously influencing his own style, culminating in two Primus covers of XTC tracks from their album, Drums and Wires in Making Plans for Nigel and Scissorman. 

Here to provide a crash course in XTC And to describe what he hears of them in Primus is Xpert Mark Fisher, who maintains an XTC podcast, What Do You Call That Noise? and keeps the world apprised of the band via xtclimelight.com

Special thanks to Mark for his time and his insights. XTC are a worthy band to explore, and there's certainly something for every Primus fan within.
