Primitive Man-Scorn

Relapse
2013

Who knew that Denver, Colorado was home to one the reported gateways to hell? Otherwise how am I to explain the unholy & ungodly nature of a group like Primitive Man? Formed in 2012, with "Scorn" originating as a self-release, the group features in their ranks vocalist/guitarist Ethan Lee McCarthy (Clinging To The Trees of A Forest Fire, Death of Self, Withered and Keep), bassist Jonathan Campos and drummer Isidro "Spy" Soto (Kitezh). With "Scorn" serving as their introduction to the world (and what an introduction!)the 3-piece collective known as Primitive Man combine doom, sludge and flat-out noise to deliver a release that is distorted, loud, volatile and above all heavy! One could easily imagine that "Scorn" would serve perfectly as the soundtrack to our eventually destruction as a planet, whether by the hands of some worldwide plague or by the devastating effects of a nuclear holocaust, or even as the background noise to some sick snuff film! Unleashing "music" such as "Scorn" on an unsuspecting public would no doubt bring a wicked smile to the faces of this 3-piece band which I wholeheartedly endorse! Be sure to catch hold of this re-release from Relapse when it oozes itself along towards you.
