Added DiffLines:

** Primus appear as themselves in ''Film/BillAndTedsBogusJourney'' - they're the band that plays immediately before Wyld Stalyns. Only the last line of "Tommy the Cat" appears in the film, but it's unmistakable.

None

Added DiffLines:

* TechnicianVsPerformer: None of them are slouches musically, but Les tends to work the crowd and stomp around onstage like a loon while Ler tends to be more stoic.
** Concerning drummers, Herb is a ''very'' technical prog-style drummer, while Brain had a more forceful Bonham-style stomp. Jay Lane, for his part, was somewhere between the two.

* ProgressiveRock: Primus's music is often categorized as this, but a more accurate description would probably be the subgenre Post-Progressive, as Primus was heavily influenced by both Prog Rock and PostPunk, and their style can be seen as a fusion of these two genres with other influences. Aside from their main influences of Progressive Rock artists like Zappa, Rush and King Crimson, Primus has also shown in their [[CoverVersion Cover Songs]] a love of Jazz Fusion,[[note]]Stanley Clarke's "Silly Putty"[[/note]] NewWaveMusic and PostPunk[[note]]The Police's "Behind My Camel" and XTC's "Scissor Man"[[/note]] and Progressive Country,[[note]]Music/TheCharlieDanielsBand's "The Devil Went Down to Georgia"[[/note]] demonstrating a wide range of Art Rock influences on their sound.
