Primordial Releases "How It Ends" Title Track

Dublin, Ireland-based Pagan metal legends Primordial have unleashed their moving new video for "How It Ends," the title track of their tenth studio album, out today on Metal Blade Records!

Having lasted thirty-two years and now returning with their devastating new studio offering, the follow-up to 2018’s critically lauded "Exile Amongst The Ruins" finds Primordial delivering more of their seminal blend of Celtic and black metal, with an extra added urgency, and staring down the apocalypse. "The title is a question – ‘is this how it ends? How it all goes down: culture, language, history, society, humanity…’ – who knows?," considers vocalist A. A. Nemtheanga. "Regardless of who you are or were, you get one chance at all of this, and it’s asking, ‘is this the end of your town, state, nation? Myths, traditions, relationships…?,’ and I suppose it asks the question, ‘who reacts, who rebels – how does it end now for them?’"

Working alongside founding members – bassist Pól MacAmlaigh and guitarist Ciáran MacUilliam – and longtime drummer Simon O’Laoghaire, the band started writing in earnest in the Fall of 2022, having lit a fire under themselves to work hastily and productively. The album was tracked at Hellfire Studios on the outskirts of Dublin, produced by the band and engineered by previous collaborator Chris Fielding. More...

So best beware, as those of the highest power may one day gather to summon you as their victim, and be certain there will be no escape as your presence will be demanded by singing 'Hymn 66'!

"I am truly excited that the time has come to release our second album, 'The Sinner Rides Again.' I hope that fans all over the metal world will enjoy it, and I am looking forward to playing these songs for you on our upcoming world tour." More...

Unearthing the Metal Underground: Silva

Silva, a melodic blackened death metal band from Minneapolis, is the brainchild of one Taylor Haagensen who has chopped his teeth previously as a main member of Defiled Christ. To be perfectly blunt and honest, Silva isn’t anything new by any means. It isn’t fierce, but not every band needs to be Blasphemy. Their value presents itself because of the unit’s interesting approach, one that’s certainly competent and exciting with a child-like curiosity. More...
