PRIMORDIAL News Update

It’s been a long time since my last message….

The first and most important thing is that PRIMORDIAL will enter the studio in July and August to record the new album. We are travelling across the water to Wales to the middle of nowhere to an old analog studio. And with the blessing of Metal Blade it should be out in 2007…

The themes have moved on from the last album (they are also becoming more expansive and perhaps less desperate then the last album) and right now I’m beginning to piece together some ideas for the artwork with Paul from Scald who made “The Gathering Wilderness” look so special. It will look incredible I can guarantee that and will be an absolutely pure artistic statement in this day and age of hollow, plastic meaningless Metal covers. This of course goes for the music as well without saying !…

Apart from that some bad news, we have had to cancel both Dong Open Air in Germany and Metal Healing in Greece. Rehearsing has always operated at a premium with Primordial and now with the comparatively large distances between us we can’t devote time to both rehearsing for shows and making a new album. We sincerely apologise, anyone who knows us knows we hate to disappoint those who always come down and show their support for the band live. We will do our best to make it up to everyone in 2008.

Sentinel Records from Ireland are going to release “The Gathering Wilderness” on picture disc, No Sign of Life from Finland “Dark Romanticism” and Black Ace from Holland look like doing “Storm Before Calm” on pic disc with some revised and improved artwork all before the end of the year !. Not to mention my plans for splits with both Desaster and Rotting Christ. It’s going to be a busy 18 months with Wars to fight on several fronts…

I am also going to release a split 7” with a project I wrote some songs for called PLAGUED. I recorded a 2 track demo about 5 or more years ago. Finally Einheit Productions from Germany have persuaded me to release one track as a split 7” with Trimonium. I’m interested to see what people make of it. I’ll put the track up there on my myspace site soon. How very 21st century of me…I might continue now and try and forge a proper line-up for the band with this shot in the arm of enthusiasm. We shall see. Click Here for cover art and label info.

So that ends this transmission for now, If you are one of the few people still waiting on shirts. Bear with me, I’ waiting on reprints at the moment. We will never rip off anyone and you will all get something extra if you’ve been waiting some time…
