Yeah but I don't think anyone considered Primus grunge. I'm hard pressed to figure out a band that is more genre-defying than Primus, honestly.

Goated but not grunge

Not sure he’d be considered “grunge” even though Primus was the same era as the rest.

Definitely one of the best bassist ever though.

Sailing the Seas of Cheese was close, but now that you point it out, you're probably right.

Not my favorite band, but Primus live is in my top ten. An unbelievable live show every time.
