6%%* The double bass that opens "Sailing the Seas of Cheese".
7%%* The call-and-response vocals of "Sgt. Baker" (a live favorite, naturally).
8* The super catchy piccolo bass riff on "Jerry Was a Race Car Driver", especially after it appeared on the ''Tony Hawk Pro Skater'' soundtrack.
9* The deep repeating double bass note that opens ''Primus and the Chocolate Factory'''s overture piece, "Hello Wonkites".
10%%* The psychedelic "Over the Electric Grapevine", all 6 minutes of it.
11* "Shake Hands with Beef", combining a driving, drilling bass riff with ominous lyrics and a shuffling beat to make a song that's both eerie and catchy at the same time.
12* "Wynona's Big Brown Beaver", a wacky half-innuendo half-jokey song about a woman named Wynona's (literal pet!) big brown beaver.
13* The slow boil of "Southbound Pachyderm".
14%%* "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" especially with the Devil's solo.
15* "Tommy the Cat", with special guest Music/TomWaits! Waits' charismatic storytelling MotorMouth is backed by some of the best instrumental performances the band has to offer, and it's a golden combination.
16* With its measured, harrowing instrumentation, equally sobering lyrics and unsettling vocal deliveries from Martina Topley-Bird, Waits and of course Les, "Coattails of a Dead Man" off ''Antipop'' is a sterling gem.
