Primordial - Pilgrimage to the World's End (LYRIC VIDEO)

"'Pilgrimage to the world's end' started out being inspired by the travails of Irish people sent as convicts to Australia, but of course I folded that into a post 'Coffin Ships' narrative, poor people boarding boats to try and reach a new world to start over anew, how many went down the boats, endured sickness, death, never reached their destination. Then I began to really consider the plight of all people within that 19th century period who by famine, war, poverty tried to seek a new life. The oppressed and the downtrodden, so as Primordial always has a historical echo that should resonate with the modern day, we see the same thing, poor people clinging to boats trying to seek a new life, always at the behest of a small economic elite who profit from their ruin, this is the song of the war and famine torn refugee from all countries and nations..." - A.A. Nemtheanga
PRIMORDIAL has nothing to prove. Having lasted thirty-two years and now returning with their devastating new studio offering, the Irish band has made it clear they are a primal force who consistently lay it all on the line. The follow-up to 2018’s critically lauded Exile Amongst The Ruins, How It Ends sees them delivering more of their seminal blend of Celtic and black metal, with an extra added urgency, and staring down the apocalypse.
“The title is a question - is this how it ends? How it all goes down: culture, language, history, society - humanity - who knows?,” says vocalist A. A. Nemtheanga. “Regardless of who you are or were, you get one chance at all of this, and it’s asking is this the end of your town, state, nation? Myths, traditions, relationships, and I suppose it asks the question, who reacts, who rebels - how does it end now for them?”
Working alongside founding members Pól MacAmlaigh (bass) and Ciáran MacUilliam (guitar) and longtime drummer Simon O’Laoghaire, the band started writing in earnest in the Fall of 2022, having lit a fire under themselves to work hastily and productively. PRIMORDIAL never plans out a record beforehand, letting them come together naturally, though Nemtheanga knew he wanted something with a bigger, more open sound, and something more aggressive, which is exactly what they achieved. “How It Ends is a very angry, defiant, visceral, and rebellious album, and as we worked it all began to take more shape and form itself. It may be the note we go out on but it will be a note of resistance, in musical terms. I think it’s also more metal! And more epic!”
"How It Ends" was tracked at Hellfire Studios on the outskirts of Dublin, produced by the band and engineered by previous collaborator Chris Fielding.

Allan's voice is like wine, gets better with age

[@daltonsteves4829]

Anytime I read the comments on a Primordial song and I see someone calling it boring that means I know I'm going to love it \m/

[@FaceYourInnerFear]

Only 1 negative comment in these comments that I saw, so that is really cool. Looking forward to the new album!

[@peterpandemonium3336]

Boring... You know the drill.

[@GeorgePapadopoulos1984]

Autumn comes = Primordial deliver

[@coveredinkevins9445]

Um Spring , long and very boring.. Does nothing special..🥱😒

[@beejw9150]

His high pitch scream at 6:05 is pure gold!!

[@antoine7040]

What a song! I like it more than the first single. Barely anyone comes close to Alan when it comes to inject such powerful emotions in vocals. He's an amazing story teller

[@hvareno2048]

No band can paint tragedy in a deeper way. Classic.

[@beejw9150]

They've gone back 15+ years and brought back the best of it!

[@helderlouro]

Can't wait to hear the full album.

[@SeniPrime]

Now this is a really powerful song. Cant wait for the release of the album later this month🤘

[@Jonsephar]

Lord, this is so good! That ending, holy hell

[@gbuhnoezqayusioehf]

A perfect discography. My love for this band is without limit.

[@themetalalmanach]

Heartbreakingly beautiful. Ladies and Gents we’re two songs into one of the serious contenders for album of the year 🤘🏻❤️🤘🏻

[@ravendarkmetal1137]

Top tune, Alan's vocals are superb 🤘♠️🤘

[@gianlucatarchi]

Alan your voice is a metal jewel 🤘💎🤘

[@velvetrain7890]

Always brilliant

[@sirrigsby7788]

PRIMORDIAL TRULY HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE SOUND . ALWAYS HAVE, IN MY OPINION. MUSICALLY, & ESPECIALLY ALAN'S VOCALS. SINGING WITH CLEAN VOCALS YET PUTTING SO MUCH RAW EMOTION INTO THEM & NOT COMING OFF WEAK OR CHEESY LIKE SO MANY OTHER SINGERS CURRENTLY IN METAL IS NOT THAT EASY TO PULL OFF. BUT THE MAN ALWAYS DELIVERS IN SPADES & PUTS SO MUCH CONVICTION INTO HIS VOCALS. LONG LIVE THE MIGHTY PRIMORDIAL !!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@MohammadJanabi]

🫀😮‍💨 Everything ends except your creativity

[@midianpoet]

AND THIS IS IT !!!! GREAT ! Looking forward to Album ! Instant classicccccc !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So good! Looking forward to seeing you soon again! ❤

[@CizerKedi]

Perfect

[@peterpandemonium3336]

Jake Rogers, vocalist of the band Visigoth, told me he is a fan of Primordial at the 2023 Hell's Heroes event.

[@FaceYourInnerFear]

Alan can be seen in the crowd of the official video for Visigoth's song Traitor's Gate. I think Alan was their A&R for awhile when he worked for Metal Blade.

[@StevilDead]

This rules hard. Gives me Dagon vibes 🐙

[@ncb.3824]

The vocals have a nice Nevermore-Vibe to it …

[@theenglishflannel6592]

Good song, opening riff reminds me a little bit of the opening riff to "Myth" by Gehenna.

[@betornween]

Makes me want for just one more Nevermore album.

[@darkhymnsfromthecoldnorth]

As one of my most favorite bands, i think this album might be a grower. I like the new songs, but i didnt expect the direction that they went in. I have the album pre ordered and cant wait to hear it.

[@mouadmoiad4724]

Tooooooop❤🔥🔥🔥

[@necrohater]

fuck! took two seconds to get goosebumps 🇮🇪

[@Sybex82]

Nice 🤘🏾

[@lemmyhead8578]

[@simonvi8368]

Guys I really need your tour for the new album! Any chances to see you in Armenia or neighbourhood?

[@achintya.venkatesh]

More I listen to it, the more I'm able to understand where theyre coming from. Yup, I expect the album to be a grower.

[@Miguelrl]

👊👊

[@SvartSaankarite]

Brilliant! Reminds me of The Mouth of Judas... 🤘🤘🤘

[@HeathenHammer123]

we need a USA tour!

[@FaceYourInnerFear]

Alan has said they'll be doing a few more dates next year when they play the Maryland Deathfest. Don't know how many or where.

[@trumpsuxcaucus]

Like it better than sound garden

[@Nanophage0]

If Clutch made Black Metal. \m/

[@marston4110]

NICE NICE VERY NICEEEEEEE HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS respekt Respekt RESPEKT NWOTHM Marston

[@valtvoar]

I like it too. It's 7 minutes of pure misery. Loved the vocals and at the end a little bit crowling and the high note was perfect. Well done. Sounded right and everything was as it ment to be ... except one thing on drums :) 2:47 part should have started 2:37 or somthing. The changing is in wrong place or the vocals starts early :)))) Anyway ... I love it :)

[@animalsilvestre]
