Primus - The Desaturating Seven (CD)

The Desaturating Seven is the ninth studio album by American rock group Primus. It is the band's first album of original material since 2011's Green Naugahyde, first album of original material with drummer Tim Alexander since 1995's Tales from the Punchbowl, and is due to be released on September 29th 2017. The album is a concept album, loosely based on the children's book The Rainbow Goblins, written by Italian author of childrens books, Ul de Rico. Les Claypool used to read the book to his children when they were younger, and was fascinated and inspired by the vibrant artwork and use of colours of the book. Claypool always felt the book's story would make a fascinating musical project, and eventually approached his fellow band members about recording original music based on the story of the book.
