Primus - Suck on This - Vinyl LP - 1990 Pressing

FYI: Even though Ebay gives a seller 7 different categories to grade their records in. They do not actually define what those categories mean, so I will do it:
Mint: Never played, brand new, still in shrink wrap. Near Mint: Like new condition, opened, plays w/out any skips or drags. Excellent: Lightly used, minor skips & not many of them. Very Good Plus: Maybe 1 track unplayable due to scratches or wear. Very Good: Maybe 1/4 of the tracks unplayable or badly scratched due to mishandling.  Good Plus: Maybe 1/2 of the tracks unplayable or badly scratched due to mishandling.  Good: Unplayable record, good only for Nostalgic decoration & reminiscence.

Group History: Primus is an American funk metal band formed in El Sobrante, California in 1984. The band is currently composed of bassist/vocalist Les Claypool, guitarist Larry "Ler" LaLonde and drummer Tim "Herb" Alexander. Primus originally formed in 1984 with Claypool and guitarist Todd Huth, later joined by drummer Jay Lane, though the latter two departed the band at the end of 1988. Featuring LaLonde and Alexander, Primus recorded the live album Suck on This in 1989, followed by four studio albums: Frizzle Fry, Sailing the Seas of Cheese, Pork Soda, and Tales from the Punchbowl. Alexander left the band in 1996, replaced by Bryan "Brain" Mantia, and Primus went on to record the original theme song for the TV show South Park and two more albums, Brown Album and Antipop, before declaring a hiatus in 2000.
In 2003, Claypool and LaLonde reunited with Alexander and released a DVD/EP, Animals Should Not Try to Act Like People, before touring sporadically through 2009. In 2010, Lane rejoined Primus, replacing Alexander, and the band released their seventh album, Green Naugahyde, in 2011. In 2013, Lane left the band to focus on other projects, and Alexander rejoined once again. They have released some of their records on Claypool's own label Prawn Song Records. Primus is characterized by its irreverent, quirky approach to music. In 1993, Robert Christgau remarked: "[Primus is] quite possibly the strangest top-10 band ever, and good for them."
