Briefly

Heavy Song of the Week: The Claypool Lennon Delirium's "The Golden Egg of Empathy"
"'The Golden Egg of Empathy' is pretty much the best use of Claypool's bass skills that you could hope for outside of a Primus context. He lays down a textbook slap-bass funk riff, and the group rides this fat break for most of the song, aside from a tasty bridge section of Les working the low E."
"Claypool called this project the most labor-intensive he's ever been a part of, something he wouldn't say if he didn't mean it. This heater of song is the sonic fruit of that labor."
The Claypool Lennon Delirium, a collaboration between Primus mastermind Les Claypool and Sean Lennon, released 'The Golden Egg of Empathy' as the lead single from a new concept album. The track features Claypool's signature slap-bass funk riffing that drives most of the song, with a bridge section highlighting his low E string work. WILLOW provides guest vocal hooks that integrate well into the bass-heavy mix. Claypool described this project as the most labor-intensive he has undertaken, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship evident in the single's production.
