Primus / Pork Soda

Pork Soda is the third studio album by the American rock band Primus, renowned as a defining statement of their offbeat, genre-defying style that blends funk, metal, and avant-garde rock. The album is praised for a unique sound that fuses funk metal, alternative metal, and alternative rock, making it hard to categorize and a "stunning display" of the band's individuality as they recorded it entirely on their own. Despite its eccentricities and lack of mainstream radio appeal (which Claypool suggested led to the album's title, as an "acquired taste, like a meat-flavored soda"), the album was a major commercial success, certified gold and then platinum in the U.S.
