Primus began as Primate with Les Claypool, guitarist Todd Huth and various drummers, notably Jay Lane, in the mid 1980s, although Huth and Lane shortly thereafter to pursue other projects. Claypool replaced them with guitarist Larry Lalonde and eclectic drummer Tim Alexander in 1989 (Tim "Herb" Alexander left the band in 1996 and was replaced by Brian "Brain" Mantia). Primus began selling out local clubs with their out-of-control live and irreverent approach to music (their catchphrase was "Primus sucks!"). This was later to be changed.
From 1989 to 2000 Primus steadily became one of the most bizarre bands to gain significant mainstream airplay, headlining Lollapalooza in 1993, appearing on The Late Show with David Letterman and Late Night with Conan O'Brien in 1995, and even makes an appearance at Woodstock '94 where they performed their Pork Soda hit "My Name Is Mud" and was pelted with mud (Claypool claims to still have mud in his speakers).

In May 2000, Claypool formed Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigade, an experimental rock group. Claypool was asked to compose a band to Mountain Aire Festival in Angels Camp, California.

Originally he would call the band "Les Claypool's Thunder Brigade." Claypool says:
I originally wanted making the two drummer thing with Herb and Jack Irons, so I was calling it Les Claypool Thunder Brigade. Michael Bailey from Bill Graham Presents said to me that it might sound a bit too heavy to Mountain Aire audience and maybe try something a little different that had to do with the event itself. Since it was the home of the Calaveras County Frog Jump … hence Frog Brigade and then it evolved into Colonel Les Claypool Fearless Flying Frog Brigade.
The Primus break allowed him to return to his musical roots, playing songs by bands like Pink Floyd, King Crimson and The Beatles. Claypool has called the Frog Brigade his "mid-life crisis band." From a set of October, shows recorded at The Great American Music Hall San Francisco Claypool Frog Brigade released two live albums, one being a cover of Pink Floyd's Animals.
