Those are saxophones. Great reaction. 😂 I’m a big free jazz lover personally. Funny enough, none of the instruments (except the saxophones) were improvised. They were all tightly structured and notated. But yes, the free jazz influence is strong. Even though you don’t like it, at least you’re able to give more knowledgeable commentary on this album, than any other reaction I’ve witnessed. No one else ever discusses free jazz when reacting to this album, and it always bothers me when people treat this album like it came out of a vacuum. And I actually have mad respect for Primus. Les Claypool is insanely talented. But you’d be surprised how influential this “Trout Mask Replica” album was on punk rockers. Johnny Rotten (real name John Lydon) from The Sex Pistols had this to say about the fish album: "It was anti-music in the most interesting and insane way ... all the bum notes I was being told off for by the teachers were finally being released by well-known artists. That was my confirmation. From then on, there was room for everything." And many new wave artists like Talking Heads were really influenced by this album’s riffs.
@psychedelicpiper999 omg was it a sax?? Really? I did not catch it. I swear it was played to unique. The album was truly a masterpiece and the musicianship was 100/100 and the instrumentalists were great. Ya it was hard tbh to listen to it😂but i think thats mostly cause i dont like jazz in general. So anything related to jazz is hard to listen 😂😂 It sure was an interesting album and tbh i think more musician should know and study the techniques used in this album. Its a whole new take and prospective on fusion
