## Description

This is the first studio album of original material since 1995's Tales From The Punchbowl with the classic Primus line-up of Les Claypool (vocals, bass), Larry LaLonde (guitar) and Tim Alexander (drums). The Desaturating Seven is inspired by a 1970's children's book Claypool often read to his kids when they were growing up. The book tells a story of seven goblins - one representing each color of the rainbow - who simultaneously pull all of the color out of the world. "Many years ago when my children were little kidlets scurrying around the place wreaking havoc and whatnot till it was time for bed and book time, my wife turned them on to a book called "The Rainbow Goblins" by Ul De Rico," Claypool explained. "The dark imagery and beauty of the art struck me immediately and I thought, 'this would make good fodder for a piece of music.' The use of color and darkness both in the paintings and the writing was compelling and now, near two decades later, the metaphor of greed, gluttony and deceit vs unity of the masses is eerily relevant. I brought the notion to the Primus guys and they were all for it. Plus, I figured it's about time someone brought 'Goblin Rock' back to the fold."

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Another concept album
  

*by J***H on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 11 May 2018*

It's good. It is what it is.Short album by Primus but good album with a storyline.Previous album "Primus & the Chocolate Factory with the Fungi Ensemble" was also a concept album. Album before that "Green Naugahyde"v was the last "normal" album by Primus in terms of separate tracks without a storyline.Maybe it's just me but miss the old Primus (2011 and back).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The Seven came a-creepin'...
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 28 October 2017*

As a big fan of Primus I was initially underwhelmed, but it has grown on me a little. Some interesting rhythms and quite a unique sound overall. I do prefer the full-blown virtuoso instrumentals of their earlier albums though.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Wonderful story, whimsical sound
  

*by F***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 6 October 2017*

Wonderful story, whimsical sound, just the right length, have listened over and over since I bought it. It's not going to come to you - if you have expectations of some kind, prepare to be disappointed. Great production too!
