American Life
Jul 6, 2020Tap to summarizeAmerican Life - a titan of a track that is a latter day live staple. Josh and Frankie get into its varied live history, the extended versions, what makes it a crowd pleaser, and the lyrics. Hoo boy, the lyrics. They could have talked all day about the social issues raised by the lyrics, but settled on using this track as an example of why Primus is not a joke/cartoon band. Plus, father/son bonding moments via Primus!@primustracks on Instagram and Twitter.
