Primus have shared another update on their new drummer search. However, it appears the band “have been plagued by a handful of pranksters” amid their hunt.

Les Claypool said the following:
“As we begin to wrap up the process of scouring the over 5,000 applications we’ve received and we begin to schedule the auditions for later in January, we unfortunately have been plagued by a handful of pranksters who think it is funny to contact some of the applicants on their own and pretend to be a representative from PRIMUS.
Although this is obviously the work of some extremely clever individuals whose intellect and sophistication must far exceed any of the general public to the point that none of us are really able to comprehend and appreciate this kind of humor, it is our duty here in the PRIMUS camp to at least give a “heads up” as it were, to those who may be duped by these sad individuals who are obviously struggling with their own insecurities and shriveled genitalia.
Please note that any correspondence from PRIMUS to would-be drum candidates will come from our management and will have confirmation information within the email.
Sorry for any inconvenience if you’ve experienced any of this.”
