"Frizzle Fry" is the debut studio album by the American rock band Primus, released on February 7, 1990. The album showcases Primus' unique blend of funk, metal, and alternative rock, setting the stage for their distinctive sound and unconventional approach to music.

Featuring the lineup of Les Claypool on vocals and bass, Larry LaLonde on guitar, and Tim Alexander on drums, "Frizzle Fry" is characterized by its intricate basslines, off-kilter rhythms, and surreal lyrics. The album's production, helmed by Primus and Matt "Rock" Hyde, captures the band's eccentric energy and tight musicianship.

Highlights from the album include the frenetic opener "To Defy the Laws of Tradition," the groove-heavy "John the Fisherman," and the surreal epic "Frizzle Fry." The album also features Primus' unique cover of the Peter Gabriel song "The Family and the Fishing Net," which showcases the band's knack for reinterpreting familiar tunes through their own warped lens.

"Frizzle Fry" received positive reviews from critics upon its release, with praise for its musicianship, originality, and humor. The album helped establish Primus as a force to be reckoned with in the alternative rock scene of the early 1990s, paving the way for their subsequent success.

Over the years, "Frizzle Fry" has become a cult classic among fans of alternative and experimental rock. Its influence can be heard in the work of countless bands who have been inspired by Primus' boundary-pushing approach to music. With its quirky charm and virtuosic performances, "Frizzle Fry" remains a beloved album in Primus' discography and a defining moment in alternative rock history.
