PRIMORDIAL - How It Ends
30 ans d'existence plus loin le Celte PRIMORDIAL fait suite persistante au « Exile Amongst The Ruins » de 2018, avec toutefois un « How It Ends » épique et mélancolique, dissident, plus punk et urgent dans son alliage black metal folk paganiste.
Composé autour A.A. Nemtheanga au chant, du bassiste Pól MacAmlaigh, du guitariste Ciáran MacUilliam et du batteur Simon O'Laoghaire, le disque a été enregistré aux Hellfire Studios dans la banlieue de Dublin, et produit par le groupe et Chris Fielding qui par le passé a déjà collaboré avec le groupe. Ce dixième album offre une ample gamme verdoyante de son esprit Irlandais, ode au grande chevauchée teintée d’un spleen poudré de brumes, et ce chant qui vient comme une marée rugeuse planté son écume et se briser sur les roches. Orageux et ténébreux, faisant contempler les tourbes et landes par un sens impressionniste, le groupe nourrit notre cœur assoiffé d'ombres et nous fait contempler les beautés filandreuses d’une terre, son histoire, son cri, ses chaos émotionnels, sa métempsycose sonique.
Beaucoup plus âpre que les sempiternels paysages Celtiques folkloriques brossés dans un jus émotionnels épiques, le groupe renoue avec cette urgence primale d’une roche sédimentaire à l’enrobage noire, poussé par une force instinctive, Primordial renforce sa dramaturgie, sa colère par une volonté viscérale d’affranchir sa liberté créative, sa pensée musicale. « Si par exemple To The Nameless Dead (2007) parlait du mouvement des frontières, de la construction des nations et de ceux envoyés à la guerre qui ont donné leur vie pour les former, cet album est davantage accès sur la résistance à ces empires, aux combattants de la liberté, aux hors-la-loi, les gens qui ont pris des positions suicidaires pour la liberté d'expression, ou l'indépendance » dixit Primordial

Primordial
[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]
Primordial (engl. ‚urzeitlich‘) ist eine irische Pagan-Metal-Band aus Skerries bei Dublin. Neben Waylander und Cruachan gilt sie als Begründer des Celtic Metal.
Die Gruppe wurde 1987 von Bassist Pól MacAmlaigh und dessen Bruder D gegründet. Ende 1987 stieß Ciaran zu ihnen. 1988 wechselte die Band häufig den Sänger und nahm im Laufe des Jahres ein Demo mit dem Death-Cover Born Dead, Sepulturas Screams Behind the Shadows und einem oder zwei eigenen Stücken auf. Auch 1989 wechselte die Besetzung bis auf die Gebrüder MacAmlaigh und Ciaran. Der damalige Name der Band ist laut Alan „A.A. Nemtheanga“ Averill nicht eindeutig überliefert, angeblich habe sie Sticky Clits geheißen. Averill stieg 1991 aufgrund einer Anzeige der Band im wichtigsten Metal-Laden Dublins als Sänger ein, auf die außer ihm niemand geantwortet hatte. Nach eigenen Angaben war er bei der ersten Probe „entsetzlich“, brachte aber Kenntnisse der Untergrundszene ein. Im September oder Oktober trat die zu dem Zeitpunkt Forsaken genannte Band in der Gemeindehalle von Skerries erstmals mit ihm auf, wobei sie Cover von unter anderem Sodom, Sepultura, Death und Massacre spielte. Außerdem begann die Band, eigene Lieder zu schreiben. Im Jahr darauf gab die Band einige Konzerte in Dublin. Im Sommer 1992 erschien eine Sampler-Kassette mit einer Proberaumversion von The Darkest Flame, die laut Averill die wohl größte Rarität für potentielle Primordial-Komplettisten sein dürfte. Diese Kompilation war die erste ihrer Art in Irland und laut Averill einer der wichtigsten Wendepunkte. Aufgrund satanischer und okkulter Referenzen in den ersten eigenen Lieder der Band zerstritten diese und der Rest der irischen Szene sich. Außerdem schrieb die Band das Lied To Enter Pagan, das nach wie vor zu ihrem Live-Repertoire gehört, und benannte sich im Dezember in Primordial um.

Album Review: PRIMORDIAL – Exile Amongst the Ruins
For those unfamiliar with Primordial, their roots go back to 1987 when their current guitarist, Ciarán MacUilliam, and bassist, Pól MacAmlaigh began jamming together, calling themselves Forsaken and playing covers of Sepultura, Death, and other extreme bands of that time. Vocalist Alan Averill aka “Nemtheanga” joined the group in 1991, and they released their first demo that same year entitled…
