Ireland's Primordial has returned with a new recording which continues the Celtic folk music inspired style of pagan black metal from previous releases and this is a review of their 2023 album "How It Ends" which will be released in September by Metal Blade Records.
A very dark, heavy and melodic sound starts off the album while most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length. All of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them along with the songs also adding in a lot of clear pagan metal vocals and the solos and leads also add in a lot of melody.
The slower sections of the songs also add in touches of doom and dark metal while the more aggressive vocals are done in more of a black metal style. Clean playing is also added on some of the tracks along with one song also being an instrumentals well as some of the vocals also being influenced by the Celtic folk music style and the whole album sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction, throat singing can also be heard briefly.
On this recording Primordial beings in more of a slow or mid tempo pagan black metal style which also adds in touches of Celtic folk music in the clean vocals. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Celtic Paganism, Modern and Historical ideas.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Primordial and if you are a fan of this band, you should enjoy this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "How It Ends" "Pilgrimage To The World's End" "Call To Cernunnos" and "Death Holy Death". 8 out of 10.
