new PRIMORDIAL - Redemption at the Puritan's Hand (Apr23, 2011)[views:2680][posts:16]______________________________ [Mar 8,2011 12:14pm - ark ""] [img] Irish pagan metal masters PRIMORDIAL have revealed the artwork and track listing for their upcoming new album 'Redemption At The Puritan's Hand' due April 23/26 via Metal Blade Records in Europe, April 26 in North America! Tracklisting of 'Redemption At The Puritan's Hand' 1. No Grave Deep Enough 2. Lain With The Wolf 3. Bloodied Yet Unbowed 4. Gods Old Snake 5. The Mouth Of Judas 6. The Black Hundred 7. The Puritan's Hand 8. Death Of The Gods Comments PRIMORDIAL vocalist A.A. Nemtheanga "If I had to sum this album up I would say this is the 'death' album. Plain and simple. There isn't exactly a whole concept but many of the themes deal with mortality, how we deal with it. The spiritual structures we place around us to make sense of it. Sex, death, procreation and god. As we get older our relationship to our lives changes, the realization you will not live forever, the grand plan you hoped to uncover never materializes, food for worms and nothing more. We are animals, beasts and making peace with that beast might be your life's work but more often than not he is never tamed. Once a wolf always a wolf. We all seek redemption in one way or another, from lies or from truth. Those of us who are godless or faithless often envy the man of faith for his life seems to have an extra purpose, despite the fact that logic, pragmatism, science and realism should crush any sign of faith we still persist in lying to ourselves. Perhaps the alternative is too much to bear. So the themes of religion, mortality and death occur over and over again, along with continuing themes of alienation, martyrdom, sacrifice, violence and retribution. Occasionally, very occasionally a chink of light breaks through. This is our seventh album, you know what to expect, passion, intensity, commitment and sheer bloody mindedness. Don't expect fantasy or escapism. No remorse, no regret." PRIMORDIAL released the reissue of their classic 'Storm Before Calm' album last week. The album is available in a remastered version as a double digipak with new artwork. The package also contains the bonus-DVD Live at Summer Breeze 2004!

PRIMORDIAL will release their new longplayer 'Redemption At The Puritan's Hand' on April 23rd/26th, 2011 via Metal Blade Records in Europe, April 26th in North America! :bow: |

| _____________________________ [May 5,2011 2:58pm - ark ""] OK, you're right, this album is a solid entry into their catalog and they haven't wavered a bit, but it does not top To the Nameless Dead or The Gathering Wilderness. Nothing can. |
| __________________________________ [May 5,2011 2:59pm - dreadkill ""] the more i listen, the more i like it. it's really intense and comes very close to the last two albums. |
