Kinda new to Primus, plus I'm not american- english is my second language. Listen free to Primus – They Can't All Be Zingers (To Defy The Laws Of Tradition, John The Fisherman and more). Primus took the line from him. But they did have a number of MTV and modern rock radio staples in the '90s, and they're all collected on 2006's They Can't All Be Zingers, the band's first compilation.Removed from their brief, inexplicable peak, these songs still sound strange, but not necessarily in the way they were intended -- and if ever there was a band that tried to sound strange, it was Primus. Zingers also used to be a type of Hostess branded snack cake back in the day. You said you're kinda new to Primus. In the context of a "best of Primus" album, it means "they can't all be hit songs". Not quite the raw ingredients for a huge band, but Primus came along at the right time, with their breakthrough second album, 1991's Sailing the Seas of Cheese, arriving not long after Faith No More and the Red Hot Chili Peppers made funk-metal popular, and not long before Nirvana made all underground rock commercially viable. In a way, the manic "Jerry Was a Race Car Driver," "Tommy the Cat," with its Tom Waits cameo, or the crude but funny "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver" still retain their power: they still sound boldly colorful and willfully annoying, but even if you're ready to turn off any of the songs by the time they reach the second verse, it's still hard not to admire Primus for their sheer musicianship as well as how they stuck to their defiantly weird guns. Interesting, I wonder if Hamburger Train is a nod to this comedian. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. Do you know any background info about this album? zinger [ˈziNGər] NOUN zingers (plural noun), a striking or amusing remark. But they did have a number of MTV and modern rock radio staples in the '90s, and they're all collected on 2006's They Can't All Be Zingers, the band's first compilation.
