Wow, someone is really into drill-n-bass, AO. 
Well, Batz that's kewl with me. I had lotsa shit going on a few years back too so I can relate a bit. Anyone who replies to my goofy little posts is a-ok in my book.
As far as Primus goes I can't say they really compare in any way to the Pixies or the Misfits. They don't really compare to a lot of stuff. Let's see, if I had to call it I'd say they were perhaps a mix of Louisiana swamp rock and (older) Red Hot Chili Peppers slap bass style with some lightly metal-related guitar work (but not beats) with heavy-handed, thick drum beats and lo-fi fuzz throughout. Think perhaps a pervert-confederate version of Toadies with less melody, hehe. They have a real distinctive sound with the lead singer's slap bass (he's really good) and sneering nasal vocals, the guitarist's weird, fast, off-key solo-ing, and the drummer's "polished-up-Dave-Grohl" style as best as I can put it. I am not too huge a fan these days, but they're not too bad. Forget about the lyrics though, I never even took a second glance at 'em. Maybe someone can decipher their looniness, not me however.
You know who else? Bjork! I freakin' hate Bjork! But i CANNOT live without her! Do y'all get that? Sheesh, freakin' looney shite. Bjork!!
