Well, kind of a new album. Primus' latest effort Primus and the Chocolate Factory is a reimagining of the soundtrack to the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory in their own style. In a few words, the album strikes a great balance between extremely intriguing and mildly disturbing. I suggest you don't talk to anyone for a solid hour after listening to the record all the way through. Your brain might be a little hazy and the words coming out of your mouth might be a little garbled. It happens.
Stream the record right here via the New York Times website, oddly enough, and snag it when it comes out on October 21 via both ATO Records and Prawn Song Records!
