Pork Soda is the third studio album by the band Primus . It was published by Interscope in 1993.
background
As already became apparent through the production of the EP Miscellaneous Debris , which was released in 1992, the album is darker and more serious than the previous Primus albums. It primarily covers topics such as murder ( My Name is Mud ), suicide ( Bob ), and alienation ( Nature Boy , The Pressman ). The band itself attributes this to the efforts of the almost two-year tour that has just passed.
From the album released on April 20, 1993 on Interscope Records , the three singles My Name is Mud , DMV and Mr. Krinkle were released.
The title My Name is Mud contains a sample from the film When everyone is dying , the title Hamburger Train contains a sample by Paul Reubens from the Cheech & Chong film Cheech & Chong's hot dreams .

reception
Siggy Zielinsky from Babyblauen Seiten gives the album a rating of 11/15: “After two neurotic studio albums ('Frizzle Fry' and 'Sailing the Seas of Chees'), the band leader Les Claypool succeeds for the first time on 'Pork Soda' Add some more conventional melodic ideas to manic-depressive, driving chant contributions. ... The album offers sometimes bone-dry, then again fat, sometimes played with a bow bass, mostly distorted, cutting guitar sounds and an excellent drummer, who knows his drums so casually, virtuoso and imaginative that hardly anyone else knows how to master. "
Andreas Hoffmann from Babyblauen Seiten gives the album a rating of 12/15: “No - 'Pork Soda' is not funny! Sometimes someone's skull is smashed with a baseball bat ('My name is Mud'), or someone else hangs himself in his apartment ('Bob'). The sound is downright claustrophobically creepy - in the foreground the sloppy bass and the peculiarly reverberant drums, a little further in the background the sometimes almost subliminally mixed guitar and the singing, which is strange, but this time sometimes frightening.
