Primitive Man to Release Home is Where the Hatred Is 12″ EP on Feb. 17
Today the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the minute hand of the Doomsday Clock two minutes closer to midnight. Midnight means annihilation. It’s 11:57PM. They cited as their reasons the proliferation of nuclear weapons around the world and concerns about burning fossil fuels and resultant global warming. What they neglected to mention was the impact of Denver trio Primitive Man, whose destructive power has continued to resonate since the 2013 release of their debut LP, Scorn (streamed here), and who’ve shown no signs of lessening their devastation in 2015. A new 12″ EP, Home is where the Hatred Is, will be issued by Relapse Records on Feb. 17.
No word on how this will affect ecosystems or governmental agencies across the globe — let alone the military implications! — but in addition to the dates below, Primitive Man will appear at Roadburn 2015 in the Netherlands on Thursday, April 9.
The PR wire digs in its heels for the good of us all:
PRIMITIVE MAN: Denver Blackened Doom Heathens To Release Limited 12″ EP Via Relapse; Live Actions Announced
Denver blackened doom heathens, PRIMITIVE MAN, will release a special 12″ EP next month via Relapse Recordings. Fittingly titled, Home Is Where The Hatred Is, the four track slab was tracked at Flatline Audio by Dave Otero (Cephalic Carnage, Catheter, Cobalt, etc.) and delivers thirty-one heinous minutes of nihilistic, feedback-doused audio atrocities brimming with gnarled riff torrents and enough fury to level a nation. Home Is Where The Hatred Is will be limited to 750 copies on black standard gram wax and 250 copies on silver standard gram wax.
In related news, PRIMITIVE MAN will wage war upon the US this Spring with a short run of live abrasions which will include an appearances at this year’s Maryland Death Fest. Slated to commence on May 16th in Omaha and accompanied by Canadian grindcore perpetrators, Wake, on select dates, the band will consume ten cities with their traumatic odes, with the run coming to a halt in Colorado Springs on May 29th. The trek follows the band’s UK takeover with Sea Bastard. See confirmed dates below.

PRIMITIVE MAN features within their fury-fueled ranks current and former members of Withered, Clinging To The Trees of A Forest Fire, Death Of Self, Vermin Womb and Reproacher. Home Is Where The Hatred Is serves as the follow-up to the band’s Scorn full-length. Crowned, “one of the most brutal, unsettling and uncompromising albums you will hear all year,” by About.com and, “terrifyingly addicting and unforgivingly heavy,” by MetalSucks, Scorn was initially unleashed in 2012 via a collaboration between Throatruiner and Mordgrimm Records before being reissued by Relapse the following year.
PRIMITIVE MAN’s Home Is Where The Hatred Is will be released via Relapse Records on February 17th, 2015. Preorder your copy at THIS LOCATION.
